School of the Art Institute of Chicago Department of Architecture, Interior Architecture, and Designed Objects Master of Architecture Master of Architecture with emphasis in Interior Architecture F) Technology physical resources The School values the accessibility of technology to students in all academic disciplines. Through classes and authorizations, students can gain access to specialized labs and high-end peripherals. This access is facilitated by: a required laptop program; Student Computing Help Desks (for laptop support and training); wired and wireless networking; access computer labs; specialized and department- specific labs; and access to a high-quality digital output facility. A detailed list of materials, sub-divided by facility, follows: 1) AIADO-Specific labs and equipment These resources are found in the Sullivan Center: • G4 PowerBook laptops, sixteen • PC towers, five • iMacs: dual core Intel, eight • PC attached to CNC Router 2) General access labs These resources are found in the MacLean building (112 S Michigan Ave) of SAIC and are open to the entire SAIC community: a) MacLean 908 • CRT monitors, thirteen • G4 eMacs, six • Epson 1200U scanners, seven • G4 towers, thirteen • Epson 4990 scanners, two • laptop workstation, seven b) MacLean 901 • Cinema display LCD monitor • G5 towers, thirteen • CRT monitors, thirteen • Imacon drum scanner • Epson 3200 scanners, two • LaCie monitors, three • Epson 4990 scanners, five • laptop workstations, two • Film Recorders, two • mini DV decks and NTSC monitors • Flatbed scanner: 11 x 17 • multi-slide scanner • G4 towers, three 3) Software While in attendance, students are granted access to SAIC’s extensive library of software via the School’s centralized license management KeyServer. Because students are not required to purchase such professional software applications on their own, they are able to use the newest versions of software as soon as they are available to SAIC, which allows them access to comprehensive training in their uses and creative potential. Students have a basic software template on their laptops and “Pro-Applications” are available on request and for curricular use. The software is available in general access labs and in specialized labs in various departments across campus. MArch and MDes/DesOb students are given access to a Windows XP SP2 partition on their laptops with access to Rhino 3D 4.0 and RhinoCAM, and MDes/DesOb students are given access to Maxwell Renderer 1.7. Currently AIADO faculty are evaluating copies of Real Flow 4.0, Digital Project, REVIT, and AutoCAD for compatibility with the key server systems and utility in the curriculum. CRIT has recently secured licensing with Lynda.com, a web-accessible site that provides training in a wide range of software programs and applications. All members of the SAIC community have free access to this site to gain facility with any number of programs. Architecture Program Report | 98

I. INSTITUTIONAL SUPPORT AND COMMITMENT TO CONTINUOUS IMPROVEMENT I.2. RESOURCES I.2.4. Financial Resources Overall, SAIC Financial Overview and Financial Performance for FY09 and FY10: • The School’s financial performance in FY09 exceeded both the previous year and the FY09 approved budget. Enrollment increased by 1.7%, reaching FTE student enrollment of 2,786. • The School’s net operating income for FY09 of $3.9 million is included in the audited financial statements of The Art Institute of Chicago for FY08 and FY09 that are submitted with this report. • Positive financial results continued into FY10. The FY10 preliminary net operating income before unrestricted bequests will approximate $4.2 million, again exceeding budget. Cash flow was also positive and favorable to budget. To provide an accurate budget comparison of the Master of Architecture program with other professional units on campus, the School has compared the MArch program with two other graduate-level programs with curricular similarities—the Master of Arts in Art History (MAAH) and the Master of Science in Historic Preservation (MSHP), see chart on next page. In contrast to the School’s larger MFA program that is tutorial in nature (based on 1:1 meetings of faculty and student) and not course-based per se, the MAAH and MSHP are both course-driven programs. While the specific space needs vary in that the MAAH uses only class- room spaces, the MSHP is similar to MArch in its more space-consumptive combination use of lab, studio, and lecture spaces to deliver its curriculum. 99 | Spring 2011 SECTION I Institutional Support and Commitment to Continuous Improvement
