Course summary
This program is highly structured the first three years and more flexible the last two. This flexibility allows each student to establish a study sequence according to individual interests and needs and to take advantage of diverse opportunities in the profession. The purpose of studying architecture is to learn how to make physical changes to the surroundings that enhance the quality of the built environment and the experience of life. Within this broad purpose, architectural study and practice include the tasks of providing shelter and environmental protection, providing appropriate settings for human activities, and creating forms that are aesthetically pleasing and supportive of social well-being in the community and society. A central part of architectural education is the design studio, in which students learn through hands-on experience in design. This kind of learning is demanding and students are expected to be committed and work independently and responsibly toward program and course objectives. In the design studio, continuous evaluation and response are the basic learning modes.
