Architecture | Discovery Program
Learn the basic principles of architecture and architectural problem solving in a studio setting that emulates the design thinking processes taught at major universities. Topics include the architectural concepts of space, form, function, environment, and technology. Students also participate in research, ideation, and hands-on design thinking activities such as drawing and sketch-models.
