Bachelor of Architecture

The program foregrounds two critical contemporary issues in particular: the emergence of new sensibilities regarding the role of architecture in the public realm and the transformative role of technology in the production of the built environment. As the decentralized complexity of contemporary life begins to resist traditional formal hierarchies, program typologies, and notions of site, future architects need to re-imagine historical paradigms of building, function, and context. Likewise, as traditional modes of design and construction become increasingly subjected to new technologies, architects need to reconsider how designers navigate and control multiple modes of technology, and how the traditional distinction between design and construction is evolving.
