February 1; however, applications will not be considered until they
are complete.)
The School reserves the right to retain student work for purposes of
record, exhibition, or instruction. Field trips are required of all
students; students should plan to have adequate funds available. It
may be necessary to assess studio fees to defray costs of base
maps and other generally used materials.
ARC 5791: Topics in Architectural History (3)
ARC 5800: Survey of Architectural Preservation, Restoration,
and Reconstruction (3)
ARC 5810: Techniques of Architectural Documentation (3)
Documentation, interpretation, and maintenance issues relating to
historic structures.
ARC 6176: Advanced Computer-Aided Design (3; max: 6)
Available hardware and software and their current and potential
usefulness to the profession. Future directions in hardware and
software development.
ARC 6212: Topics in Phenomena and Architecture(3; max: 9)
Relationships between the philosophy of phenomenology and
specific phenomena and architecture studied. Current and historic
examples of theoretical and design applications considered.
ARC 6226: Intercultural Perspectives in Architecture(3; max:
9) Studies on the impact of differing cultural practices displayed
through politics, tourism, the arts and mass media on architectural
thought and production.
ARC 6241: Advanced Studio I (1-9 ; max: 9) Architecture as a
function of human action (program and use) and potentials inherent
in construction (structure and material). The relationship between
ritual and built form, culminating in a highly resolved spatial order.

office practice management, investment and financing, project
phases, building cost estimation, contracts.
ARC 6355: Advanced Studio II (6) Relation between the tectonic
and the experience of place. The joint, the detail, and the tactile
reading of architecture, culminating in a highly resolved tectonic
order.
ARC 6356: Advanced Studio III (6) Developing design methods
for synthesizing special aspects of architectural practice: human
behavior and space programming, environmental control and energy
use, construction materials and structures, project management,
preserving and reusing historic structures, and theoretical and
philosophical areas of inquiry.
ARC 6357: Advanced Topics in Architectural Design (3; max:
6) Expanding familiar concepts in the conception and production of
architecture. Examines the potential for a program to generate
