You have to go to class in order to be successful. His lectures are easy to follow, very clear but at times can be a little dry. Pay attention in case studies because 2 or 3 will usually be on a test. Overall a good professor.

Comment:
He's a great professor and has good knowledge of the material. Lectures can be boring, however everything he says can be used in the tests. If you skip this class, you're screwed. He doesn't use moodle and you will have to take your own notes. However, the material is easy to follow under his presentation of it.

Prof Mulvihill is a very nice guy who is willing to help students. He even takes the initiative to learn the students' names, which is very admirable (he even learned my name...which is pretty difficult to remember). Anyhow, the material is presented very clearly and test are quite fair. However, lectures can be..zzzzzzz... Besides that he is great

Althought lectures were a bit boring, Peter presents material clearly, and provides interesting movies/case studies to exemplify his points. East to talk to.

Peter's style is great, he had a number of guest speakers that had gave the class great insight into the world of urban planning. The textbook was out and practicality was in. He is a quiet yet intelligent person that is easy to learn from.
