ARCH Course Descriptions: Printer Version
ARCH-1200 Summer Design Institute A four-week intensive introductory course for High School students and students considering a major or minor in architecture or design. The program focuses on the design studio and a series of projects, with lectures, labs, and field trips. Topics include theory, history, construction, structures, urban design, contemporary design approaches, environmental issues, electronic media, multidisciplinary studies, and professional practice. Summer term annually. 3 credit hours ARCH-2110 The Building and Thinking of Architecture 1 The history of architecture in the Western world from antiquity through the late Renaissance. This course examines architecture as both the process and the product of multiple, complexity-related phenomena and seeks to demonstrate the intimate relation between design, theory, and practice through an exploration of the spatial and formal results of their discourses. Seeing the architecture of the past as both “world-making” and “city-making” is important. Emphasis is also placed on the realization of the differences and the significance of those differences between the world-views of those who made architecture in the past and our own perceptions of that past. An important intention is to demonstrate that history is an ongoing process and that its study is essential to developing a critical understanding of the situations within which architectural practice occurs. The importance of developing a research discipline in both written and graphic contexts is central to this course. Fall term annually. 4 credit hours ARCH-2120 The Building and Thinking of Architecture 2 This course expands upon notions introduced in ARCH-2110 that architecture is a practice characterized by particular ways of thinking and embedded in human culture. Further, notions that its domain of interests extends beyond the limits of the individual building is elaborated. Various concepts, problems, values, and issues that concern this practice, as well as working definitions of important terms in architectural discourse, are examined across a range of scales and throughout history and particularly in the twentieth century. Special stress is given to the need to look beyond one’s own subjectivity when engaging in architectural thought and design. In light of this, the importance of developing a critical perspective with respect to one’s engagement with the world is emphasized. Prerequisite: ARCH-2110. Spring term annually. 2 credit hours ARCH-2130 Contemporary Design Approaches How differences in designers’ taken-for-granted assumptions lead to differences in formal composition, semiotic impact, topologies of eye and body movement, etc. By examining the differing implicit and explicit assumptions of several prominent design approaches, the individual is able to realize some of her/his own practices as other-than-fixed, not necessarily “natural,” subject to be changed, or continued knowingly. Differences in ontological and value assumptions, ways of knowing, and ways of taking action are stressed. Prerequisite: ARCH-2120. Prerequisite or corequisite: WRIT-1110 or WRIT-2110. Fall term annually. 2 credit hours ARCH-2210 Architectural Design 1 Design studio introducing students to the processes of critical inquiry specifically as it relates to architecture investigations. These processes are seen as interrelated and always informed by the societal, technological, and historical contexts within which architects work. Parallel instruction in drawing, computing, and construction technology are integrated within the work of this studio. Technology 1: The technology aspects focus on discovering the basic systems used to create space such as structural systems, enclosure types, and systems for movement. Emphasis is placed upon constructability and sustainability. These discoveries are through hands-on applications and field visits. Computing: Explorations with the computer focus on both the development of a fundamental knowledge of 3-D modeling and 2-D image manipulation software and a nontraditional application of this knowledge to design representations. The computer media (3-D modeling “space,” computer printouts, video projections) are conceived of as yet another “physical” material for experimentation, and are integrated in this way with the studio design projects. Drawing: The drawing segment consists of freehand drawing exercises that relate to studio projects and help students develop basic drawing skills and a familiarity with two-dimensional design concepts. Taken in conjunction with Design Studio 1. Fall and summer terms annually. 4 credit hours total ARCH-2230, ARCH-2240 - Architectural Design 3, 4 The Design 3 and 4 studios develop practices that focus on the relationship between specific architectural design situations and issues of representation; conceptual, analytical, and critical thinking; ethical dilemmas; and the role that technical issues play in space-making.

The focus is on passive heating, cooling, and daylighting systems and their design. Exercises include Vital Sign analysis of existing spaces (thermal, air, luminous), forming hypotheses of building performance, using scientific instrumentation, tenant survey techniques, and physical modeling and simulation techniques related to daylighting and shading techniques. Prerequisites: PHYS-1050, ARCH-2220 or permission of instructor.

In both cases, creative exploration of design opportunity will be encouraged. Students will be expected to create multiple material experiments during the term and will be responsible for purchasing their own materials. 4 credit hours ARCH-4460 Electronic Media: Critical Visualization This course is offered as an advanced design course concerned with the integration of computer modeling, animation, and multi-media technologies into the design methods of the architect. It stresses the need to integrate critical thinking about computer technology and focused learning of software tools and methods.
