Architecture Design Degree Project
The Architecture Design Degree Project studio offers two options:
1) an independent design research project (design thesis) on a topic selected and developed by the student or 2) a graduate research studio. Design Thesis is an opportunity for each student, working with a faculty advisor, to define an individual position with regard to the discipline of Architecture. The graduate research studio, led by a faculty member, will investigate relevant or thematic issues of architecture. All graduating students will be required to present their Degree Project, comprising research, analysis and creative work, as a book.
