This class is an interdisciplinary problem solving class offered at the Law School through the Problem Solving Initiative (PSI). Responsibility for aging public infrastructure has shifted from collectives to individuals and from public to private actors, greatly impacting access to opportunities, health outcomes, and family stability of the most vulnerable populations. Funding, policy, and programming mechanisms for repair, maintenance, access, and innovation in mobility systems will be explored with a focus on low-income communities in SE Michigan. Multidisciplinary student teams will learn from stakeholders and experts, apply problem solving tools, and learn about changing mobility and transport infrastructures.

This class is open to all University of Michigan graduate and professional students. Please note: Non-Law students are responsible for checking with their own schools, colleges, or units to learn if a PSI class will count toward graduation or other departmental requirements. SOCIAL WORK students - This will count as elective credit toward the MSW.
