Subject description
City Futures is a subject concerned with imagining the City from a variety of different lenses and
perspectives. It is about considering the myriad of possible futures for our cities and reflecting on
how different societies and individuals have envisaged wonderful or terrible future outcomes.
This subject critically examines imagined city futures from historical and contemporary perspectives,
incorporating concepts and approaches from utopian literature, critical urban theory, and
philosophy to explore how the ‘city’ is understood as a physical realm, a social realm, and an
imagined realm. In addition, the subject also critically investigates how imagined and real cities are
influenced by popular media and technology, as well as cultural, environmental, economic, social,
and political contexts. Students will be able to speculate upon the future of the polis, and their place
in shaping or being shaped by the urban condition.
Over the course of the semester, the subject will challenge you to consider what is important when
shaping a city and will frequently ask you to challenge status quo assumptions about the way our
communities, cities and countries function.
Subject objectives
At the end of the subject, you will be confident and competent in your critical ability to:
1. Overview historical and contemporary views of cities and civilisations as utopian or
dystopian.
2. Clearly articulate your thoughts about why the future of the city is contested and the
implications for the roles of urban professionals, individuals, communities, and governing
bodies.
3. Understand the forces and factors that influence the way we imagine cities and how these
imaginations are contested, negotiated, and/or feared.
4. Communicate the extent to which real cities are reflective of imagined utopias and the
implications for imaging city futures today.
5. Be familiar with cultural, environmental, economic, social, technological, and political
contexts of urbanism historically, today and in the future city.
6. Imagine the future of the city and your place in it by stating your own defensible position on
key issues confronting cities and city planning, such as: how we should plan for city futures
today.
Time commitment to study
Contact hours will be one two-hour lecture per week, and one one-hour tutorial per week.
However, there will be no tutorial in Week 1, and no lectures or tutorials in the mid-semester
break (a non-teaching week). This means the contact hours for the semester will total no more than
36 hours.
Total time commitment to study for this subject—including contact hours, research, and reading—is
100 hours, or approximately 8.5 hours a week.
Attendance at Class
Students are responsible for obtaining any information given out in class and keeping themselves
informed of the subject requirements.
Students who expect to miss one or more scheduled classes should discuss this with the subject
coordinators and tutor. The Faculty requires a minimum of 75% attendance at all tutorial sessions.
This attendance is a hurdle requirement for passing this subject. That means you MUST attend at
least 8 tutorials to pass this class.
The Faculty and subject coordinators will only permit extended absences where grounds for special
consideration exist, and in these cases, the subject coordinators may advise the student to consider
withdrawal from the subject.
Assignment submission
All assignments must be submitted online through the LMS. Further information on submissions is
provided in this link:
http://edsc.unimelb.edu.au/assignment-submission-and-collection
Requests for extensions or special consideration
Any requests for extensions or special consideration must be submitted to the Environments and
Design Student Centre. Information on how to do this is provided in the links below:
http://edsc.unimelb.edu.au/extensions

Further information outlining the assessment tasks and criteria are located in this subject guide.
Feedback and marks relating to your assessment will be returned within 14 days of submission.
Subject readings
There is no physical reader for this subject. All readings are uploaded to the LMS and labelled with
the relevant week.
Referencing
Students are to choose from a small range of citation styles. Appropriate styles for use in this subject
include Harvard, Chicago and APA. Use of any style outside of those stipulated must be approved by
your tutor.
You are to include a reference list with each assessment, noting the source and author of each text
utilised. Please also note your chosen citation style. Failure to cite or reference as appropriate will
incur the deduction of marks, as per the plagiarism policy below.
If you require assistance, ensure that you speak with your tutor or subject co-ordinators, and visit
the Academic Skills unit:
http://services.unimelb.edu.au/academicskills
Plagiarism and collusion
Plagiarism is serious and readily detectable: all submissions for City Futures are to be uploaded to
Turnitin. Plagiarism includes duplication of another author's work (whether in entirety or used in
segments throughout a submission); submission of one's own prior academic work (both within and
outside of the University of Melbourne); and 'close' paraphrasing (with minor changes to sentence
structure or vocabulary, but fundamentally identical in terms of meaning, structure, key terms, and
logic). Collusion—collaboration with other students on individual tasks—is also a form of academic
misconduct, which can be readily identified.
Plagiarism and collusion are not tolerated and will incur a mark of zero for the relevant assessment
task.
Penalties for the late submission of work
Standard penalties apply for late submission of work for undergraduate subjects. The Faculty of
Architecture, Building and Planning’s position in regard to penalties for late work is as follows:
• In-class tasks: 100% of the mark.
• All other assessment: 10% of the total possible marks for the task for each day that it is late,
including weekends and holidays.
This means that, after three days, a student originally awarded 75% will be awarded 45%. After five
days the work will not be accepted for marking and students will receive no marks.
University Policy additionally considers this on the basis of calendar days. A late submission for a
portion of a day will be counted as one day late; a submission made the day following the
assignment due date will be considered two days late, and so forth.
Penalties for breach word limits
Standard penalties apply for breach of word limits for undergraduate subjects. The Faculty of
Architecture, Building and Planning’s position in regard to penalties for breach of word limits is as
follows:
• Assignments of more than 1000 words: for assignments that exceed the word limit by more
than 10%, inclusive of footnotes, attract a marking penalty of 10% of the marks that would
otherwise have been awarded.
• Assignments of less than 1000 words: assignments which exceed the word limit by 10% will
be capped to a maximum grade of H2B.
• Any assignments that exceed the word limit by 25% will be capped to a maximum grade of
H2B.
For example, an assignment with a limit of 2000 words will be marked down by 10% if there are
more than 2200 words. If there are 2500 words or more, the maximum result that may be awarded
is a H2B.
Assessment

• Situate these utopias within a real-world context, justified with appropriate research.
Assessment task
You are required to submit a class paper of 500 words in response to the following prompt:
Utopias respond to perceived issues or crises: they are imagined spaces where these
problems have been resolved. These envisioned worlds have been frequently depicted in
texts—film, media, and the written word—over the past century, but also deeper in our
collective history. Selecting one utopia from a specified source, analyse its key elements in
light of the era in which it was produced, understanding the social, political, and economic
characteristics of that time.
Your class paper must include citations and a reference list within the parameters of your chosen
referencing style. A minimum of five academic references are to be utilised.
You may wish to focus on a utopia from any of the following sources:
