Spring 2027

This is the culminating course for the MSRSD program, focusing on a design research project that integrates ecological principles into the built environment across multiple scales.

This course exposes students to advanced project scheduling methods and familiarizes them with the primary reporting practices performed in the construction industry, including change management, resource charts, and project status reports.

This course explores the fundamentals of project values, incentives and motivations as they relate to the diverse, sometimes conflicting, perspectives of a project’s stakeholders.

This course guides students through the development of a focused research proposal for the MSBPD thesis. 

In this course, second year students in the Master of Science in Computational Design (MSCD) program work towards the completion of their thesis. 

In this course, students collect local or global data and apply mapping skills, including using ArcGIS and Illustrator, to map local experience and large-scale urban systems and use spatial data science to make inferences.

Through small-scale architectural and urban interventions, this course encourages the collective occupation of public spaces that increase urban vitality, incite conversations about urban life, and deepen our sense of belonging to place.

This course examines the role of the architectural detail in the formation/thematic development of a work of architecture and how the detail reinforces the theoretical position of the architect.

This freehand drawing course considers perspective from three understandings of perceptual psychology. 

This seminar examines the history of architecture of the last two centuries by following the thread of the history of materials.
