Architecture - Studio (ARCS) Courses
ARCS 5030 [1.5 credit]
M.Arch 1 - Studio 1
Sensory components of architecture: use, effect, and symbolic potential. Light, lighting, sound,sensation of heat and cold, and related phenomena studied in modes of building proposals. Social considerations of architecture. Conventions of architectural drawing. Computer modeling as a medium of architectural analysis, documentation, and presentation.

ARCS 5105 [1.5 credit]
Graduate Studio 1
An architectural investigation within a contemporary urban setting, usually dealing with central-city sites and complex programs. Projects address the question of urban architecture both from practical and theoretical perspectives. Architecturally relevant building technology and systems will be introduced in the Studio as required.

ARCS 5106 [1.5 credit]
Graduate Studio 2
Architectural design interventions within culturally-significant contexts. Investigate and integrate contextual and theoretical research into a critical position on architecture and its relationship to a wider cultural context. Develop this position using creative and critical methods into a design proposition at architectural, landscape, and/or urban scales.
