Foreword

It is just twenty-one years since the Commonwealth Association of Architects established the Commonwealth Board of Architectural Education, and this new edition of the Survey of Schools is a fine way to mark the maturity of the Boards efforts. Professor Peter Johnson, who has been chairman CBAE as well as CAA President, is again personally responsible for the prodigious effort of extracting all this invaluable information and assembling it in a lively and accessible form. The past decade has seen great changes in the perceptions and practices of architecture. Throughout the Commonwealth our professional organizations, registration authorities and Schools of Architecture have sought to adjust to new imperatives, new realities. The based on visits by CAA procedures for recommending recognition of Schools experienced teams with professional, registration and academic interests have helped to ensure continuing communication and mutual respect at a level rarely matched outside the Commonwealth. That vital communication is further enhanced by this Survey. -

Preface

The gathering of information for this second Survey of Schools has taken a similar protracted course to that taken for the initial survey published in 1979. This is due in large part to the difficulty of obtaining and checking information from the wide range of schools across the many countries of the Commonwealth and in the not inconsiderable task of sorting it out, putting it into standard form, preparing it for printing and fitting that into the normal day to day tasks of a School of Architecture. The major credit for doing that must go to Sue Clarke, our Senior Research Assistant, who has given the same careful and dedicated attention to this survey as she did to the first survey. Others who have assisted ably have been Jennie Christopherson who has performed miracles on the Macintosh and Alice Lochhead who has been responsible for the design. A generous grant from the Commonwealth Foundation has made it possible for the survey to be printed and the Foundations support for this survey, as for the previous one, is greatly appreciated. The Foundation's interest in the professional associations of the Commonwealth has encouraged and aided links between its countries, showing the continuing value of that strange institution the Commonwealth. The original intention was to incorporate with the survey a number of papers on aspects of architectural education from around the Commonwealth but the sheer amount of information supplied by the Schools has meant that the size of the publication has grown precluding inclusion of the papers. It is hoped that CAA may be able to publish them in some other form. In order to leaven the pages of words a decision was made to use illustrations, all of which were drawn from projects for houses or housing designed by students in the various schools. Not only does this give some idea of the variety of architectural ideas coming from students in many countries but it also makes some contribution to thoughts about housing in this International Year of Shelter for the Homeless although it must be admitted that some of the schemes illustrated are not aimed at the homeless! Gateful thanks are due to all the schools which participated in the survey and especially to the staff members who filled in the questionnaires. The authors were especially encouraged by the enthusiastic cooperation with which schools returned their checked schools descriptions in minimum time. Finally, I want to acknowledge the support of the Commonwealth Board of Architectural Education and its Chairman, Allan Wild for whom the work was undertaken and of the Council of the Commonwealth Association of Architects and of the President, John Wells-Thorpe and the Secretary, Gordon Mattey, all of whom have given unstinted encouragement. -

Introduction

In 1977-78 the Commonwealth Association of Architects supported by the Commonwealth Foundation conducted a survey of schools of architecture which led to the publication of Architectural Education in the Commonwealth A Survey of Schools. This was the first comprehensive collection of information about architecture schools in the Commonwealth and it has proved to be a useful document. The Commonwealth Board of Architectural Education of the Commonwealth Association of Architects has amongst its aims liaison and exchange of information with member institutes, institutions teaching architecture and registration boards, about architectural education and, where possible, the provision of assistance and encouragement to schools of architecture. It also maintains a system of recognition of schools which is used to assist with professional reciprocity between the member countries of the Commonwealth. In conjunction with these aims it encourages academic reciprocity of staff and students, although world wide events and attitudes have regretfully made that more difficult than at the time of the first survey. At the CAA 9th General Assembly in Sydney in 1983 the hope was expressed that the Survey of Schools last published in 1979 might be updated. Following agreement by Professor Peter Johnson to undertake the production of a second book, several meetings took place in 1984 with local CAA members to discuss what information about the Schools was most useful and how it might be collected. A draft survey was then tested with the cooperation of several Australasian and Asian schools. The task of producing this book was set underway in October 1984 when a survey questionnaire was designed and distributed to the ninety-two known Commonwealth schools of architecture. Various activities associated with contacting schools of architecture located in seventeen countries around the world were then undertaken during the next two years. Initial replies were received from most schools between November 1984 and August 1985. Meanwhile reminder letters were sent out in February and March 1985 to those schools which had not replied by then to the original questionnaire. In March and May 1985 and also in 1986 contact was attempted, sometimes successfully, with four new African, twenty-one new Asian and one European school, information about which became available during the survey. Editing and processing of the replies which we received occurred during parts of 1985 and 1986. Finally, between September 1986 and February 1987 each school was sent the pages containing its description for checking and updating where necessary. Those pages and the rest of the text have been produced on an Apple Macintosh using a PageMaker programme. The following table indicates the participation by the schools of the five regions in the CAA survey. It should be noted that some of the schools which did not reply may no longer exist. However, the last known address of each school is included in the list of Commonwealth Schools of Architecture in this book. Finally, to whoever undertakes the next survey, the authors state from experience, that although the task is at times frustrating, it has many rewards. Whatever the differences between the Commonwealth schools may be (and we hope this survey draws them out to emphasise the value of diversity), there are so many common ideals that international contact between schools will always be an enjoyable experience. -

The Department which began as the School of Architecture, Building and Planning of the Kumasi College of Technology, Science and the Arts, was established in 1958. The first students were enrolled to study to the RIBA Intermediate level. The establishment of this School was the outcome of a report based on an earlier proposal of the United Nations Housing Commission to the Gold Coast, which recommended to the College Council the setting up of courses in Architecture and the allied professions as well as a centre for researching into planning and design of lowcost housing and other buildings. This Centre later became known as the Department of Housing and Planning Research. The first 8 graduands of the Intermediate RIBA course were sent to the Architectural Association in London to complete the professional course. As a result the School established a link with the AA from 1963 until 1966. A significant aspect of the link was the exchange of students between the two schools and the yearly visit to the Department by the President of the AA. In 1962, the Intermediate RIBA course gave way to the

BSc(Design) and the MSc/Postgraduate Diploma in Architecture courses. Since then the Department has produced 252 architects who are employed in Public Service or as private practitioners. There is, at present, a link between the Department and the School of Architecture at Newcastle University which is financed by the Inter-University Council for Higher Education Overseas, by which staff from the Department are sent to the Newcastle School for short periods for various professional experiences, and others from Newcastle come down to Kumasi as visiting lecturers. Also by this link, students from the Kumasi School at various stages of their course are permitted when necessary to continue their training at the Newcastle School. Architecture moved to a new building on campus in 1961. Additional facilities, including classrooms, studios, lecture theatres and offices, have been added more recently.

programme, is about to be reorganized into a five year programme to satisfy the recommendations made by the visiting board of the CBAE in 1982. The current programme is structured into a four year BSC(Design) and a two year postgraduate Diploma courses. In addition to the postgraduate Diploma course, the School offers a two year MSc(Arch) programme for students with special interest in research. It is envisaged that the new five year course will be structured into a three year BSc and a two year postgraduate Diploma programme, with a requirement to do one year office practice after the undergraduate course, before proceeding to the postgraduate level. The Bsc(Design) course is organized to introduce students in logical sequences to complexities of the human environment in relation to synthesis and design. The first year course is an introductory one, and equips the student with the basic skills and knowledge for a comprehensive perception of the environment and for the resolution of simple design problems. In the second year, the course is organized to introduce students to specific design issues associated with certain building typologies within a limited scope. The third and fourth year courses are based mainly on the rural and urban environments respectively. In the context of a study of specific rural and urban settlements, planning and design schemes are prepared with respect to the socio-economic and developmental needs of the selected communities. Students are also required to

prepare working drawings as a further development of the planning and design schemes. In the first year of the postgraduate course, design assignments are given to students to enable them to apply the knowledge which they gain in advanced studies (i.e. Urban Design, Architectural Science, Construction Technology and Industrial Architecture) to complex architectural design and urban development problems. Before the design thesis is carried out at end of the sixth year, a teaching office assignment is executed. This programme is usually related to a life project and is executed by students under office practice conditions. The professional architectural course is organized on a semester system. This means that all subjects or courses taught, except architectural design, are divided into modules, i.e. self-contained units usually lasting one Semester (16 weeks). The architectural design course forms the core of each year's academic programme, with the other theoretical courses providing philosophical support and informational inputs for the design programmes organized and coordinated by Year Masters. The School placed particular emphasis on the settlement studies carried out in the third and fourth years. All design programmes during these periods develop from the survey and analytical studies carried out in the field and the studios concurrently. This is meant to sensitise students' awareness for the need to relate architectural design solutions to the third-world in

general and Ghana in particular. The option given to students in the sixth year to develop their own design thesis programmes, aims furthermore at achieving the above goal.

Educational Policy The School shares in the universal notion that the Architect is primarily concerned with the problem area: man and his environment. The School's basic policy therefore is to train competent professionals who could lead the team concerned with building the human environment. However, the School additionally views architectural practice as a unique human activity which can be employed to effect positive structural changes in the community. It therefore hopes to create a body of skill capable of defining the problem inherent in any situation and evolving and implementing a total solution. To achieve this goal, the School wishes to promote an architectural education which raises students' consciousness and sensitivity to the developmental dynamics within the local and regional African society. Consequently, the School pursues its three tier course structure viz: Basic intellectual and professional training (first and second years). General exposure to the forces within the society at both rural and urban levels and the interaction of these forces in the development of the human environment (third and fourth years). Application of the resultant sensitivity and awareness to architectural projects developed within the constraints of the third world (fifth and sixth years).

Library The University has a central library and there is a reference library in the Faculty of Architecture, for which one Library Assistant is provided by the Central Library of the University. The Faculty Library is administered by the Faculty of Architecture, through the Faculty Library Committee.

Facilities and Resources The Department's laboratory facilities comprise: (i) Low speed wind tunnel fully equipped for demonstration and research purposes. (Supporting equipment needs repairs.) (ii) Photometry laboratory of which the installation comprises an artificial sky (supporting equipment required) and a photo meter bench (accessories required). (iii) The University has an IBM computer which can be used for teaching and research. (iv) An experimental building site has been in existence for nearly 20 years. It serves the purposes of demonstration of techniques of construction etc. Part of the area is used as an exposure site. (v) The Building Technology as well as the Department of Housing and Planning Research have well equipped workshops which serve the needs of the Department. Workshop practice is part of the course curriculum. The facility is used for model making as well as for the teaching of workshop practice. (vi) The Faculty

is equipped with a photographic studio which has a dark room with ancillary spaces and facilities such as enlargers and slide copies (black and white).

University of Jos Department of Architecture Faculty of Environmental Sciences University of Jos Private Mail Bag 2084 Jos Nigeria

The Department of Architecture at the University of Jos was established in 1978/79. It is one of three departments comprising the Faculty of Environmental Sciences. The other two are: Building, and Geography and Planning. The Faculty is planned in time, to expand to include the departments of Estate Management, Urban and Regional Planning, Quantity Surveying, and Land Surveying and Advanced Cartography. Jos is the centre of tin-mining in Nigeria and the capital of Plateau State.

Architecture Course The full six year course structure is based on the "four-plustwo" model. The first four year programme, leading to the award of the Bachelor of Science degree (BSc) in Architecture, is basically a course of study in environmental design: Landscape architecture, architecture and urban planning. This programme is followed by a two year course with a strong concentration in architecture and leading to the award of the Master of Science (MSc) degree in Architecture. The holders of the MSc(Arch) degree of the University of Jos would be registered with the Architects Registration Council of Nigeria after passing the Nigerian Institute of Architects Part III professional examination. Students proceed to the National Youth Service Corps programme after obtaining their MSc(Arch) degrees. The BSc(Arch) programme is structured around a series

Telephone Enquiries: JOS 55951 Ext 236

of compulsory courses in Design Studio, Building Construction, Building Materials, and Structures and Architectural Forms. The programme also includes a wide variety of electives conducted within and outside the Faculty. Students are expected to acquire practical office or site experience during the three long vacations preceeding the BSc(Arch) exam. The first year of the MSc(Arch) programme alms at providing the student with a comprehensive building design experience and an opportunity to carry out studio work in consultation with reputable visiting studio critics, departmental staff and consultants from other disciplines. In addition to the design studio, the other courses offered are advanced Theory of Structures, Quantities and Cost Planning, Advanced Building Construction, Specification Writing, and Contract and Building Law. The programme requires a number of elective courses from the Faculties of Environmental and Social Sciences. This is to ensure that the students understand the context of their designs in physical, cultural and economic terms. The second year is divided between taught courses (in the area of professional practice) in the first semester and the Design Thesis in the second semester. The latter is an opportunity for the student to work independently on an architectural design project of his/her choice.

high quality professional education in design. Its programmes and goals are aimed at producing designers who understand the context of their designs in physical, cultural and economic terms. They must also understand the practical implications and implementation. In order to achieve this, several non-archtiectural courses which are major determinants of architectural solutions the behavioural sciences, economics, developmental planning, to name a few of the more obvious, have been included in the six year programme. Concerted efforts are made to teach these and other disciplines in both an integrated studio situation as well as in other departments of the University. Hence, the emphasis placed on the design studio here: it is hwere most of the learning from other courses is applied. -

The University of Zambia at Ndola School of Environmental Studies The University of Zambia at Ndola P.O. Box 21692 Kitwe Zambia Zambia is one of the most urbanised countries in Africa. Because of the existence of a highly developed industrial sector on the Copperbelt, there has always been a heavy concentration of population in that area. But during the past twenty years the population of towns and cities elsewhere in the country has risen at a very fast rate, while the population in the rural areas has declined. This movement of people has created or accentuated a number of problems relating to the built environment and has pointed to the need for university trained specialists equipped with the insights and skills required for dealing with the environment in a rational and humane way. Moveover, the construction industry in Zambia, which together with Government and the mining industry is the largest employer of labour, has long felt the need for a steady supply of locally trained professionals in the fields of architecture and quantity surveying. These two factors led to the decision to establish a School of Environmental Studies at the University of Zambia, a decision which was announced in 1975 and which was implemented in October 1981 when the School admitted its first students. Pending the provision of permanent quarters at the site which has been obtained in Ndola, the School is located at the Riverside Campus of the Zambia Institute of Technology in Kitwe.

Architecture Course The School offers programmes of study leading to degrees in Architecture, Building Science, Urban and Regional Planning and Land Economy. Each of the degrees is awarded after five years of successful study. The degrees in Architecture, Building Science, Urban and Regional Planning and Land Economy are recognised for entrance to

the respective professional bodies in Zambia on conditions set out by the respective bodies. Courses in the first year are common to all degree programmes. The first year is thus conceived as a Foundation Year where students receive concentrated courses in subjects considered vital for their education in environmental studies. During the second year students follow two separate streams, that is they join either the Department of Architecture and Building Science or the Department of Planning and Land Economy. The third, fourth and fifth years then offer separate programmes for each of the four disciplines. The discipline of architecture is primarily concerned with the design of buildings and the subsequent implementation of these designs. As such, architects contribute towards the improvement of our built environment. In order to develop the required design skills students undergo extensive training in the principles of building technology including materials, construction, services and structures. The role of the architect has changed over the years from an exclusive profession which was mainly at the service of a privileged few to a professional cadre whose services are rendered to the community at large. This has meant that the range of design tasks has expanded considerably and nowadays the field of architecture includes low-cost housing, urban design, village planning, landscape design and environmental engineering. As a result of this diversification architects are not only working in private practice but increasing numbers of professionals are being absorbed by the public sector as well.

curriculum allows for a considerable degree of integration. This means that courses that are common to all disciplines can be taught concurrently thus reducing the number of staff and amount of space that would otherwise be required. It also means that students can postpose final decisions about the programme they wish to follow until they have sufficient knowledge about the requirements, duties, responsibility and opportunities within the various professions. Another important feature of the School's educational policy is the emphasis on project work. A series of design programmes and projects must be completed by each student throughout the academic year in parallel with lectures and seminars. These are assessed independently of the student's performance in any of the theoretical courses. This provides for an application of the theoretical body of knowledge obtained during formal instruction. This creative design approach applies particularly to the architecture course.

Library Library facilities are shared with the School of Business and Industrial Studies and presently consist of about 6,000 volumes. The architectural and building science collection comprises one third of it. A slide collection is being

The University of Calgary Faculty of Environmental Design The University of Calgary 2500 University Drive N.W. Calgary Alberta Canada T2N 1N4

Programme Director, Architecture: Professor M. Robert Kirby

The Faculty of Environmental Design was established in 1971. It now offers professional degrees in Architecture, Environmental Science, Industrial Design and Urban and Regional Planning. An essential part of the Faculty's programme emanates from its geographical location in Western Canada. Here opportunities exist for examining new approaches to environmental design and for re-examining the values, scientific premises and institutional arrangements which have hitherto shaped Canadian environments. There is no departmental structure in the Faculty of Environmental Design. Programme Directors are appointed in Architecture, Environmental Science, Industrial Design and Urban and Regional Planning to coordinate the development and implementation of curricula; to establish academic and professional standards and maintain consistency of standards in and between the respective programmes; and to prepare and supervise examinations and student evaluation procedures in the four degree programmes.

Completion of a core curriculum which, with the exception of one subject, can be completed in the first year of studies. The core curriculum constitutes an introduction to interdisciplinary training and comprises a breadth of environmental design subjects upon which students can It build their professional and research interests. establishes the requisite knowledge base and conceptual framework for interdisciplinary studies in environmental design and enables the student to achieve a basic set of design skills including analytical methods, graphic skills and approaches to interdisciplinary group work. Completion of a general knowledge examination in architecture. A Masters Degree Project which is a documented work in a theoretical or empirical design or research subject related to an approved programme of study. Completion of a faculty approved Programme of Study. A Programme of Study is drawn up by each student in consultation with faculty advisors. Essentially, the Programme of Study specifics what the student proposes to do and how he intends to fulfill the degree requirements through various learning activities. The activities may be courses, community projects, field work, professional training, preceptorships, research, independent studies and readings, studies at another institution, etc.

Architecture Course The degree Master of Environmental Design (Architecture) prepares students for the practice of architecture. It normally requires 31/2 years of study. Students who already hold a bachelor's degree in architecture (from another institution) are also encouraged to apply and to pursue more specialized programmes in interdisciplinary research or aspects of professional practice under this degree option or under one of the other three options. Students in this latter category are likely to be able to complete the degree in two years. The following are required to complete the MEDes(Arch) degree: 1. Full-time study in the Faculty for 3 sessions.

Telephone Enquiries: (403) 220-6603

Educational Policy The Architecture Programme stresses an understanding of the conceptual issues and operational skills required to design the built environment. Students learn to combine qualities of intellect and imagination with the requisite technical disciplines of architecture. Their work is expected to respond to the broad environmental issues of Individual concern to all students in the Faculty. achievement in architecture is sought but not in isolation from collaborative efforts with students in urban and

Regional Planning, Environmental Science and Industrial Design. Broadly speaking, architecture requires an understanding of: the human condition, including approaches to human behaviour employed in physiology, psychology, anthropology and sociology; cultural values, including historical traditions and their relevance to contemporary design and construction; technical knowledge and associated skills related to design and the building process; mans perception of the world with regard to space, volume, mass, proportion, colour, texture, light etc. -

Library The Environment Collection in the Environment, Science and Technology Area of the University Library, serves the programmes of Architecture, Urban and Regional Planning and Environmental Science. It currently contains over 17,000 monographs, 385 periodical and serial titles, 2,000 government documents, 1,500 microfiche and 200 pamphlets. The unit is a depository for the city of Calgary Planning Department, the Calgary Regional Planning Commission, and the Environmental Council of Alberta. The library maintains a collection of regional and city planning documents from various centres in Canada. The division has a good collection on northern pipelining and on alternative energy sources. The specialized materials in the Environment collection are

backed by major resources of the University Library providing opportunities for in-depth study. The Canadian Architectural Archives complement the Special Collections policy of The University of Calgary Libraries with its particular interest in Canadiana. The Archives project was initiated by members of the Faculty and the Library in 1973 with the object of acquiring works drawings, correspondence, of Canadian architects: manuscripts, slides, microfilm and microfiche, and other office and personal records are collected and catalogued. The collection is a unique resource for research and teaching in the history of design and the development of the Canadian profession from the beginning of the twentieth century forward.

Facilities and Resources A wide range of resources and opportunities are available to students in the Faculty. Principal among these are the diversity and quality of the backgrounds of staff and students alike and the flexibility and encouragement the Faculty offers to the development and use of these resources. The Faculty maintains a close association with the Kananaskis Centre for Environmental Research; a number of students and faculty in Environmental Design have participated in research projects at the Centre. The opportunity exists for students to take Natural Resources and Environmental Law, which is offered jointly by Law and Environmental Design professors for

24 students in both Faculties. As well, other relevant law courses may be taken with permission of the instructor. The Computer Graphics Laboratory has been created to provide computer support for research and instruction activities within the Faculty. Both students and faculty members are encouraged to make use of the computer facilities. The laboratory provides specialized programming support for such diverse areas as mapping, architectural perspectives and document production. This support takes on a number of forms: individual consultation, group seminars and computer programme development. As suggested by its name, the laboratory is heavily involved with programme development related to computer graphics. The facility is built around a VAX 11/750 computer system. Peripheral equipment includes fourteen terminals and a variety of graphics output devices. Currently, the laboratory operates with a full-time staff of two. Communication links have been established to the main University instruction and research computer (Honeywell Level 68) and to other satellite computer systems located on campus. Contacts are also maintained with the computing arms of other universities, companies and governments.

direction of staff from the School and the host country, undertake a full terms work, including design tutorials, lectures, and field trips. During 1983, the BArch program was converted from what has been an almost entirely elective program into a mix of mandatory and elective courses. The introduction of mandatory courses makes it possible to use these as prerequisites to the elective courses and therefore, develop more depth in the program.

Educational Policy

The BArch course is of three years duration for students in full-time attendance during Fall and Spring sessions: students studying on a part-time basis will need more than three years to fulfil degree requirements. Students may be advised to interrupt their academic studies at the end of First or Second Year for a prescribed period in order to experience conditions in practice, or take part in construction work, or to travel in countries outside Canada. Every two years the School offers a Study Abroad program whereby approximately 20 second or third year students travel to a selected location, and under the

Looking at the longer term, the Faculty of this School have reaffirmed their goals and objectives. We are agreed that the School and the profession must work closely together to scan the future, to continually redefine needs and responsibilities for education and training, and to collaborate to educate architects capable of producing architecture. The University education of architects must, therefore: provide a thorough knowledge and understanding of the typologies of buildings; provide a thorough knowledge and understanding of

Head of the Department of Architecture: Professor Gustavo da Roza

The Faculty of Architecture at the University of Manitoba has five Departments. Students intending to graduate as architects usually enter the undergraduate Department of Environmental Studies (3 years) and on completion of a Bachelor of Environmental Studies degree are eligible to apply to the Department of Architecture (3 years) for a Master of Architecture degree. For students from other disciplines with a Bachelor's degree, entry may be made into a Pre-Master's (Qualifying) year that precedes the regular three years in the Department of Architecture. The teaching of architecture at the University of Manitoba began in 1913. At that time it was established as a department within the Faculty of Arts. The curriculum was organized as a four year program leading to the degree of Bachelor of Architecture. In 1933 the first postgraduate instruction in architecture was instituted with the degree of Master of Science in Architecture; in 1935 the graduate degree was changed to Master of Architecture. In 1945 the Departments of Architecture and Interior Decoration were combined under the name of the School of Architecture and Fine Arts. In 1948 the entire school was reorganized under the name of the School of Architecture, and both undergraduate curricula were revised: Architecture became a five year program. In February, 1957 the Manitoba Legislature approved a capital grant for the construction of a building for the School of Architecture, the first in Canada to be designed for the exclusive use of a School of Architecture.

In 1963 the School of Architecture was reconstituted as the Faculty of Architecture with two departments of undergraduate study: Architecture and Interior Design. In 1966 Senate authorized the reorganization of the curriculum in Architecture to include a three year program leading to the degree of Bachelor of Environmental Studies as prerequisite to a three year program leading to the degree of Bachelor of Architecture. In 1970 Senate approved the new curriculum leading to the first professional degree, Master of Architecture, which replaced the three year Bachelor of Architecture program.

Architecture Course The Department of Architecture offers a professional program leading to the degree of Master of Architecture (MArch). The program is divided into three phases: Pre-Masters, Masters and Practicum; with major evaluation occuring between each phase. Seven term-length Studio Courses, with input lectures, seminars, site visits, and consultation form the core of the curriculum, followed by the Practicum. The Pre-Masters phase, consisting of Studios One through Four, provides instruction, demonstration, and exercises with criticism on various aspects of the design process in solving problems in architecture and related design disciplines. The Masters phase, Studio Five through Seven, identifies and explores multi-function building projects, form-stimulating

qualities of site and extreme climatic factors, and urban design principles and constraints. Upon completion and major evaluation of the Studio Courses, students undertake the Practicum as an independent work of an approved program to demonstrate professional knowledge and skills culminating in a public presentation. Support Courses, in lecture and seminar format, are required to complement the Studio Courses to provide professional knowledge and specialized disciplines necessary in the architectural profession. Elective courses on architecture, theory, preservation, and other selected topics and issues of the profession are offered by the Department to provide diverse opportunities to pursue concentrated exploration of specialized knowledge to supplement the required Studio and Support courses. Students are encouraged to take additional electives offered by other departments of the University to gain access to the many resources available in a major university. Students are admitted into the Department of Architecture at varying levels of the program. Baccalaureates with non-design degrees are admitted to Studio One and undertake the full four years program. A majority of students, with Environmental Studies or Interior Design degrees from the University of Manitoba, are admitted to Studio Three, and normally complete the course in three years. Students with non-professional or professional degrees in architecture are admitted into the appropriate level according to academic background, technical knowledge and skills, and professional experience.

The School of Architecture at the Technical University of Nova Scotia was established in 1961 to serve the Atlantic Region. While it continues to serve its original intention, the School has developed to contribute nationally and internationally to architecture. The majority of the course work is conducted within the School of Architecture by full-time members of the teaching faculty. Specialist knowledge not available within the School is accessible through the Faculty of Engineering at TUNS and faculties at other universities in Halifax.

Architecture Course Bachelor of Environmental Design Studies (BEDS) This is a non-professional degree awarded after a program of study consisting of five terms of residence and a fourteen-week period of practical experience. Bachelor of Environmental Design Studies is regarded as a pre-requisite for entry into programs leading to professional degrees.

Master of Architecture (MArch) The Faculty of Architecture offers two programs which lead to the degree Master of Architecture. The first program is designed to be taken directly after the Bachelor of Environmental Design Studies. It is a professional program which leads to the degree after a minimum of three terms of residence and a twenty-eight week period of practical experience. The second program is typically undertaken by students who hold a first professional degree in architecture. The program currently requires a minimum of twelve months of study. The nature of the program and its entrance requirements are currently being revised. The BEDS and MArch together form the full program of professional studies, beginnning with a core of the essential and common studies (in the BEDS) and developing into an elective program offering each student individual opportunities. This pattern of moving from the essential to the elective, and from the common to the individual, informs the detailed organization and regulation of the School.

The Faculty of Architecture and Landscape Architecture offers a five year undergraduate programme leading to the professional degree of Bachelor of Architecture, a 5 year undergraduate program leading to the professional degree of Bachelor of Landscape Architecture and a graduate programme leading to a degree of Master of Architecture. The University of Toronto first offered instruction in architecture in 1890, when a Department of Architecture was established in the School of Applied Science and Engineering. The Department became a School of Architecture and first offered courses in Landscape Architecture in 1934 with the lectureship of Howard Dunnington-Grubb. A full program in Landscape Architecture was offered in 1965 and a Department was established in 1967. Both programs share facilities and maintain academic links with the graduate program in Urban and Regional Planning. The Faculty of Architecture and Landscape Architecture is located on the St George Campus of the University of Toronto with easy access to all University facilities, public transport and the resources of Provincial Government, local and metropolitan agencies.

Architecture Course Integration of knowledge through project work in the studio represents the fundamental learning experience of an architect irrespective of future role in professional practice. The specifically architectural aspect of the education afforded by the program depends on the consistent provision of appropriate opportunities to effect the process of integration through design. This does not mean that studio courses are the main source of knowledge or that other program components are less important it means that studio work, seriously and consistently pursued, is the necessary but not sufficient condition of a good education -

in architecture. The program clearly distinguishes between studio work, technical and professional knowledge and general knowledge, attempting to strike an effective balance between all components through carefully calculated sequences, conjunctions and cross-relationships. The program structure is based on a five year sequence of three distinct curriculum components: The manadatory studio curriculum (total of 14 credits) is organized on a term basis and comprises a 4-stage sequence. The mandatory technical and professional curriculum (total of 7 credits). The elective curriculum (total of 9 credits).

Educational Policy Architecture is concerned with environments for life as it is lived around us. Good architecture at once meets and transcends the requirements of our daily lives. In response to the need to accommodate and enhance human activities, architects must assume responsibility for designing the built environment. This implies an understanding of human values and aspirations; a knowledge of the origins and functions of buildings, neighbourhoods and cities; and competence in the means to produce them. The work of building design is used as an essential vehicle for learning. In the studio, concerns for the cultural origins, social purposes, working processes and technical aspects of architecture are brought together. Individuals and groups are charged with the responsibility of researching and advancing experimental solutions to credible and relevant problems. As specific attempts to creatively integrate and apply diverse forms of knowledge and skill, design projects in the studio are continuously subjected to critical examination as part of the learning process.

Director of the School of Architecture: Associate Professor Larry W. Richards

The Faculty of Environmental Studies, created in 1969 brings together in one faculty those people who share a common fascination for the community of man interacting with the physical, natural and social environments. The Faculty comprises four units: the professional Schools of Architecture and of Urban and Regional Planning and the departments of Geography and of Environment and Resource Studies. The University is situated on a functional 1,000 acre campus in the north-west section of the city of Waterloo. Waterloo, and its twin city Kitchener, are prosperous industrial centres in mid-western Ontario with a combined population of approximately 190,000. Located near the centre of the University of Waterloo campus, the School of Architecture shares a new building (officially, the Design Wing of the Isaiah Bowman Building) with the other three units of the Faculty of Environmental Studies and the D. rtment of Fine Arts.

programmes: a pre-professional, three-year Bachelor of Environmental Studies programme and a two-year professional programme of study for the Bachelor of Architecture degree. Both programmes are on the cooperative system which consists of alternating periods of academic study and practical work experience. The pre-professional architecture programme comprises six academic terms of study and three four-month cooperative work terms leading to the degree, Bachelor of environmental Studies (BES). This degree indicates appropriate preparation for four subsequent academic terms of study and two longer cooperative work terms, leading to the degree, Bachelor of Architecture (BArch).

Design receives primary emphasis, and the student spends more time in design studio courses than in those of any other theme area. Design courses begin with small exercises in basic design, gradually increasing in size and complexity through the years the final year's work being a thesis, (a major project of the student's own choosing). Design projects are set to illustrate a range of issues in a variety of situations. The teaching of design does not begin from a dogma, but exposes students to a range of theoretical positions and approaches to the creative process of design. Ecology deals with major concerns of today: aspects of both natural and human ecology, the relation of built to natural environments, the implications of the fact that for -

increasing numbers of human beings environment means built environment. Technology covers the technical aspects of building, starting with foundation studies in statics and strength of materials, going through structural and mechanical systems, and finally dealing with some of the professional aspects of architecture. Cultural history gives the student an understanding of the intellectual, philosophical, and social forces which have produced cultural change and thus influenced the development of architecture. These courses are rigorous and exciting, and play a major role in forming students' attitudes towards design. In addition to the courses required in the theme areas,

36 there are places available in the students' schedule to choose elective courses from programs throughout the University and in the fourth year, students have a study abroad option in Rome, Italy. Architecture at Waterloo is a five year academic program. However, because the Cooperative program alternates work experience terms with the academic terms, the course of study covers six and a half calendar years. Cooperative Program The Cooperative program begins in the second year, and throughout the second and third years academic and work terms alternate. In the fourth and fifth years the time periods are lengthened, to alternate two consecutive terms of work with two consecutive terms in school. The Cooperative program gives students a chance to try various kinds of work experience within architecture, to travel, to counterbalance an academic view with a real-life view, and to assist them in financing their studies.

Educational Policy Architecture is a vast spread of concerns about people and their surroundings, their history, cultures, resources, disciplines and contradictions. The School's primary concern is the development of design skills in architecture, and it stresses awareness of cultural background and existing environment. The programme in Architecture is intended to prepare the student to become an architect capable of practice within contemporary professional constraints and capable, too, of adaptation to the changing profession and society it serves.

Library Purchase of print material is funded through the Book Purchase Fund of the University of Waterloo Library. Each academic department is allotted an annual budget by the Library Budget Committee. Materials purchased are maintained by the Library system in one of the three branches: Arts; Engineering, Math and Science; and Map and Design. Titles purchased from the Architecture Fund are placed in the Arts Library or the Map and Design Library located in the Environmental Studies building. The latter is located so as to provide easy reference for students and faculty working in the Design Studios. Thus the special needs of Architecture and Planning have been recognised by the main library in the creation of a standing collection of 2,500 reference works and major monographs covering current practice, architectural history and technical subjects. Here as well a core collection of some twentyfive periodicals is maintained. The facility is administered and operated by the University Library, however, the content of the collection is carefully monitored by the School of Architecture. Titles not selected for inclusion in the Map and Design Library are placed automatically in the Arts Library. This split keeps the most frequently consulted material close at hand while the more rarely used, or specialized titles are found in the main library where bibliographic services for

research support are far superior. The total collection of architecture-related material comprises 11,400 books and publications: Architecture general 7,300; Landscape Architecture 1,800; Technical Reference 2,300.

Facilities and Resources The orange brick building, housing the School of Architecture, completed in the summer of 1981, contains basic open plan studio space, workshops, faculty offices, exhibition space, and specialized laboratories for work in graphics, cartography, photography, creative problem solving, and computer-aided design. Other facilities and services available to faculty and students in the Faculty of Environmental Studies include: University Map Library and Design Reading Room, Ecology Laboratory, Dark Rooms, Methods and Design Area, and a large number of socializing places (coffee shops, the Faculty Courtyard, etc.). These immediate School of Architecture facilities must be seen in relation to the opportunities provided throughout the rest of the University. The more than forty teaching and service buildings (all constructed since 1957) on the main campus, the emerging 85 acre industrial research and development park north of campus, the new Waterloo branch of the Canadian Innovation Centre, and the invisible campus generated by courses and lectures which take place off campus in libraries, comunity centres and hospitals, constitute a complex network of teaching and research places. The University has three museums, an Art Gallery, two Theatres, a Physical Activities Building, and extensive library facilities. The Arts, EMS, and Map libraries have more than 2.2 million items altogether, and the library's size increases by about 120,000 items annually. It is also important to note that the School of Architecture has been renting studio space in Rome for nine years.

The School of Architecture is part of the Faculty of Engineering and has strong links with the Department of Civil Engineering and particularly with the School of Urban Planning. The School was established in 1896 and was one of the first schools of architecture in North America.

Architecture Course The McGill undergraduate architectural program is divided into two parts. The first leads to a non-professional degree, Bachelor of Science (Architecture), as a preparation for professional studies. The second, consisting of a minimum of two semesters for those with the McGill BSc(Arch) degree, leads to the professional degree, Bachelor of Architecture, which has long been recognized by the Order of Architects of Quebec and the Royal Institute of British Architects as representing completion of their educational requirements for membership. The Bachelor of Architecture degree is also recognized by the Commonwealth Association of Architects. Candidates in the first part of the program who plan to go on to the

professional degree in Architecture must follow the series of required and elective courses stipulated for professional studies and achieve an acceptable standing both in Design and Construction courses and in their cumulative grade point average. Students must also have had a total of 6 months related professional experience before applying to the BArch program. In addition, the School offers a post-professional research oriented graduate program leading to the Master of Architecture degree in three options: Architectural Design, Also Minimum Cost Housing and History/Theory. offered is a graduate Diploma program in Minimum Cost Housing.

Educational Policy The principal objective of the McGill School of Architecture is to impart to its students competence in both the art and the science of building design and building construction. Students receive a comprehensive background in engineering subjects such as Strength of Materials, Structures, Surveying, Mechanical and Electrical Services,

The Universitd de Montréal is the largest French-speaking university in North America with approximately 40,000 students and 2,000 staff. It comprises thirteen faculties, about sixty departments and two affiliated schools. The Facultd de l'amdnagement (Faculty of Environmental Design) was created in 1968. At that time it contained two departments: the Ecole d'architecture (School of Architecture), offering since 1964 an undergraduate programme and the Institute durbanisme (Institute of Town Planning) founded in 1961, offering a postgraduate programme. In 1978, the growing interest in all aspects of environmental design encouraged the creation of two new departments: the Ecole d'architecture de paysage (landscape architecture) and the Ecole de design industriel (Industrial design).

Architecture Course The School of Architecture offers a four year undergraduate programme leading to the Baccalauréat en Architecture and meeting the admission requirements of the Order of Architects of Quebec. The course is structured on the credit system. The total number of credits required to pass the course is 120. One credit represents 45 hours of study. The normal number of credits taken per semester is 15. Mandatory courses comprise 44 credits. Optional courses comprising at least 34 credits must be chosen from among courses provided in

each of three areas: human sciences, communications and methods, and technology and science of building. At least 30 credits must be chosen from among the unites or studios. Twelve credits may be chosen from among courses outside the School. First year provides a common foundation for all architecture students. Students in second, third and fourth year join unites. The unite is a group of two or more teachers, linked by common interests or particular skills, doing research, teaching courses and running a studio. The School includes about 10 unites, distinguished by their methods and areas of study. Each student spends at least 5 semesters in at least 3 distinct unites.

Educational Policy The School aims to train professionals able to assume the traditional tasks of analysis, of design and of realization of buildings, in accord with the needs and resources of individuals and groups. The School aims also to train professionals capable of accepting the new practices made necessary by the slowing down of population and economic growth, by the ecological and energy crises, and by the aspiration of society towards a better standard of living. To do this, the School offers in its bachelors programme a group of theoretical, methodological, technical, economic and sociological courses involved in

University of Guyana Department of Architecture University of Guyana P.O. Box 101110 Georgetown Guyana South America

Head of the Department of Architecture: Mr L. Hernandez

Telephone Enquiries: 02 54841 Ext 410

The University of Guyana occupies a site at Turkeyen, some 8 km from the centre of Georgetown. The site of 56 hectares was a gift from the Booker Group of Companies and the original ten buildings were made possible by capital grants from the Governments of the United Kingdom, Canada and Guyana. The Department of Architecture (formerly called Department of Architecture and Building) was started in 1969 at the request of the Guyana Society of Architects. It offered a two year General Technical Diploma (GTD) followed by a two year Higher Technical diploma (HTD) in Architecture and Building Technology. In 1975, a one year post-HTD programme leading to the Bachelor of Architecture degree was offered. In 1978, the existing GTD and HTD programmes were replaced by a new two-tier system. This comprised a twoyear Diploma in Technology (Architecture and Building) course followed by a two year Bachelor of Architecture (B Arch) course. The Department of Architecture is one of seven related departments and divisions in the Faculty of Technology. Courses in structures, mechanics and physics are taught by the related departments.

Architecture Course The architecture course programme has a two-tier structure with each tier of two years full-time study leading to a separate award. Diploma in Technology graduates are required to complete one year of National Service before proceeding to

the Bachelor of Architecture programme. This is normally a combination of an orientation and Work Study. The orientation period is between two to three months and for the rest of the year students are occupied in Work Study in a work situation relevant to and in keeping with their University training.

Educational Policy The Diploma in Technology (Architecture and Building) is intended to prepare students for positions of architectural technician level in the design office and building technician level in the construction office and building site. The Bachelor of Architecture is intended to provide the student with the opportunity of consciously making use of his own creative potential, while also developing a sense of objectivity and responsibility through group work. It also introduces the student to the administrative functions of the architect.

Library The University has a central library which provides a variety of resources supporting and extending the University's programme of teaching and research. Its stock is made up of an estimated 147,000 items of book and non book material and a collection of more than 4,000 periodical titles. Apart from being a legal deposit library as designated by the Laws of Guyana, the library is also a partial depository for the United Nations, and several of its agencies.

The library is particularly proud of its Caribbean Research Collection which is the largest of its kind in Guyana. In terms of its acquisition policy, it attempts to build a comprehensive collection of books, periodicals, pamphlets, theses, microfilm, slides, tapes, maps, records, photocopies etc. These materials are in all languages and cover all areas of interest to the Caribbean. Although the first priorities in acquisition are the materials which cover development areas in science and society, a serious attempt is also made to collect original historical materials. In recent years it has been the recipient of some major gifts of rare books and maps. The library also contains a notable collection of Architectural books.

Facilities and Resources The Department recently established a small facility containing a small reference section, materials and equipment for students supervised by a technician. -

University of Hong Kong Department of Architecture University of Hong Kong Hong Kong

Head of the Department of Architecture: Professor K.C. Lye Telephone Enquiries: 5-8592131

Hong Kong's political future with China after 1997 is a factor of increasing importance to both its economic and social progress. The equilibrium necessary to its continued development may only he assured when Hong Kong's future is shaped by its population. The Department and the University as a whole, in its development are reflections of the Territory's development. Since the Department's foundation in 1950 pluralism has been a basic principle. The heterogeneous background of the staff has already been clearly reflected in the accomplished heterogenity of student work. Prizes have been awarded at the International Union of Architects Conferences in Mexico (1978), Warsaw (1981), Cairo (1985), and in Mimar Competitions in 1982 and 1983, as well as in the Triennale Competition in Deft in 1986.

The B.Arch. second degree curriculum currently offered in the Faculty of Architecture has evolved over the years. It represents a professionally oriented education aimed at producing graduates equipped for the general field of architectural practice and with special reference to Hong Kong. The pattern of the courses in problem-solving studio work predominates, with parallel lecture series leading to written examinations. A general education covering the extensive range of skill and studies basic to Architecture must of course persist and may in its own right develop further. Nevertheless the continuing trend to increase complexity in buildings has become such that there also now exists a pressing need to recognise specialities within the profession and to provide for these to be taken up as options by individual students to meet these new developments.

Architecture Course

Educational Policy

The revised B.A. (Arch. Studies) curriculum constitutes part of an overall restructuring of the Architecture degree curricula to take account generally of developments in architectural education and the profession. The main features of this restructuring are: to reschedule the teaching of technology subjects, planning and landscape architecture (which currently extend into B.Arch.) so that the obligatory coverage of these subjects will be contained within the B.A. (Arch. Studies) curriculum, and also to introduce a new subject Tropical Habitat in the first year of B.A. (Arch. Studies); to offer in the first year of B.Arch. a substantial elective component, with the remainder of that year and all of the second year having a greater emphasis upon studio and project work and Architectural (professional) practice.

Diversity is intrinsic to the local culture in terms both of the prolixity of southern Chinese sources and of the general composition and intermingling with those of the west. The richness and variety of the local forms can tend in any educational situation such as Hong Kong, to be submerged beneath the liberal cosmopolitanism of the West. Occidential culture can tend, unless caution is exercised, to overide the indigenous values of the host environment. It has been to the credit of students and staff alike that this has not occured in the Department of Architecture of the University of Hong Kong, nor in a future in which problems and opportunities in our community are recognised as themselves pluralistic, is it likely to occur.

The Department of Architecture is one of the departments of studies of the Indian College of Engineering, Motihari, which was founded on June 21, 1980. This Institute is situated in the outskirts of Motihari town, which is the district headquarters of East Champaran of the Bihar State. The geographical situation of this Institute is 260 26' N and 850 50' E. It is 155 kilometres from Patna which is the capital of Bihar State. It is an educational institution. The development and management of the Department of Architecture is guided by the regulations and control of the Government of Bihar State, Department of Science and Technology.

but we architects have not been trained with the objective of rural development clearly in view. Architects have not been specially qualified to work under constraints existing in our rural areas, nor to modify and adopt rural technology. Therefore to accelerate the pace of rural development, architects must be taught appropriate technology, which has been adapted to the rural environment. Then, they could correlate rural living habits, culture, needs and available local materials in the design. Keeping this aim in view, our Department has decided to train our students in such a way that they may fulfil the needs of society.

Architecture Course

Library

The architecture course of this Department is four and a half academic years. Each year has approximately 29 working weeks. There is an annual examination system and 30% marks of each subject are added by the two internal examinations. After completion of the four academic years of the course, twelve working weeks are for professional training and the consecutive twelve working weeks are for dissertation work. Apart from the other standard subjects, as prescribed by the Council of Architecture, the course gives more emphasis to rural planning.

Our Institute maintains a good library. We have several hundred books specifically on the architecture course. Fourteen regular Indian and foreign journals are received by the library, namely: AJ; JA; AD; Progressive Architecture, Design; Landscape Architect; Architectural Review; Interior Design, Architectural Digest; Indian Architect; Architect Trade Journal, Inside-Outside, Design etc.

Director of the School of Planning and Architecture: Professor Bruno Dias Souza

The School of Planning and Architecture was established as a School of Town and Country Planning in July 1955 by the Government of India. With the integration in October 1959 of the Department of Architecture, originally of the Dehli Polytechnic since its inception in 1941 and the University of Delhi between 1952 and 1979, the School has developed into a fullyfledged institution providing for both undergraduate and postgraduate education, in the fields of Architecture, Urban Design, Urban and Regional Planning, Housing, Transport Planning, Landscape Architecture and Building Engineering and Management. Recognizing the specialised nature of the field of Human Settlements and the Environment in which the School provides higher education and the eminence the School has attained, the Government of India, Ministry of Education and Culture, on the advice of the University Grants Commission, has declared, in December 1979, the

School the status of 'Deemed to be a University' and has conferred the right to award its own undergraduate, postgradute and doctoral degrees. The Department of Architecture is assisted by the other Departments in the School. The Departments of Urban and Regional Planning, Housing, Transport Planning, Landscape Architecture and Building Engineering and Management and Urban Design provide expertise in their respective subjects on the problems assigned to the B.Arch. students, in addition to conducting specialised courses pertaining to their departments. The subjects such as mathematics and building science are taught by the parttime faculty recruited.

and a half years (seven semesters) of full-time study, followed by a second stage of one year (or two semesters) of full-time study. Between the first and second stages, there is a period of six months (one semester) of work experience/field training. The six months work experience preceeding the second stage provides a valuable input into the course and reinforces the student's development from the first stage to the second, which is distinctly different in nature. Design education is perhaps the most important single aspect of architectural education. The design process as we understand it has been analysed to isolate the nature of inputs that are necessary for the development of the student's design skill. The development of the student's

objective knowledge and subjective attitudes go side by side. The educational programme has been viewed in this light as knowledge inputs under the Humanities and Science and Technology streams and as attitudes inputs under and Attitude stream. The subjects and courses which are developed under these broad streams, besides being distinct areas of study in themselves, are seen as contributing to the development of the student's design skill. The use of design and communication tools such as drawings, models, writing and speech by architects to externalise, develop and communicate their design ideas, are also an important aspect of architectural education. The development of these skills in the course is included

S7 under the Communication stream. The School of Planning and Architecture is fortunately placed, as various activities in this large urban town of Delhi attract the many kinds of experts needed in other fields. The School has, over a period of time, developed a coterie of professionals who are interested in the practice of architecture or academic research related to live problems. The well-qualified full-time staff, who before appointment must have practised this profession for a certain number of years, are encouraged to carry on a practice by the School. This unique feature ensures a live body of experts within the School. In addition to the full-time teachers, much of the expertise required for the Architecture Course is available within the School of Planning and Architecture from among the staff appointed for the postgraduate courses. Subjects such as planning, economics, sociology, traffic and transportation, environmental planning, landscape architecture, urban design, etc. are taught by teachers of the postgraduate classes and conversely the teachers of the Architecture Course associate themselves with postgraduate teaching. This inter-play and crossfertilization within the departments ensures enthusiasm both among the staff and the students.

Educational Policy The School of Planning and Architecture, New Delhi, is It has on the threshold of major developments. traditionally been responsive to the evolution and requirements of the profession both in public as well as private sectors. The School owes its present status to its performance-oriented attitude. Architects in India need to function in widely different social, cultural, geographical, economic and technological situations, each of which requires appropriate conviction, attitudes, knowledge understanding and skills. It is important in this context therefore, that the student's architectural education and training should: (a)expose him widely to the different kinds of situations in which he may be required to participate; (b)develop in him an awareness and understanding of the kinds of problems that exist and need to be tackled; (c)encourage him to discover himself and equip him to develop his individual interests so that he can find his own place in the profession and in a society.

Library The School of Planning and Architecture maintains two departmental libraries, one for the undergraduate department and the other for the postgraduate departments. Books and journals: 16,140 undergraduate library, 26,440 postgraduate library, 42,580 total both libraries. Manuscripts: 1,500 postgraduate library. Slides: 15,000 both libraries.

Facilities and Resources The accommodation and facilities for the Department of Architecture undergraduate students includes: 7 studios; -

art studio; 3 large and 3 small lecture rooms; 12 student's study cubicles; departmental library; common room for girl students; auditorium, common recreation canteen and music room material testing laboratory; workshop; building science laboratory.

Educational Policy The ultimate aim of education is to make students aware of the multi-dimensional issues of contemporary community and to meet the challenges arising out of resolving these issues. It deals with all accumulated knowledge helping students to translate facts into actions appropriate to their own time. In process, it is a dynamic analysis of culture, values, knowledge, methodology. It must be selective; dealing with principles, seeking direction in contrast to merely accumulated unrelated facts. Education combines abstract and the real. It must understand the established patterns, seek out validity in traditions and combine these with possibilities of today. It must encourage original research as a means of establishing new roots. The School aspires to train students for such tasks, it aims at maintaining high standards in selecting applicants who are genuinely interested in learning and are responsive

Originally the teaching of architecture was undertaken by the Kalabhavan Technical Institute of the then Baroda State. It conducted a 4 year Diploma course as well as a 2 year Certificate Course in Architecture with a yearly intake of between 20 to 30 students in each course. With the formation of the M.S. University in 1949, these courses were taken over by the University and the Kalabhavan was transformed into a Faculty of Technology and Engineering with Architecture as one of its five departments. The other four were Civil (including Applied Mechanics), Mechanical, Electrical and Textile Engineering Departments. The Certificate and Diploma courses were gradually discontinued and replaced by the Bachelor of Architecture Degree course in 1954 with an annual intake of 40 students. A postgraduate Diploma Course in Low Cost Housing of one year's duration was started from 1979 with an authorised intake of 10 B.Arch. and/or B.E. Civil graduates. The Department of Architecture is a part of Faculty of Technology and Engineering which is located near the central area of Baroda. The main M.S. University campus is about 2 km away in the north-west part of the city.

of three years, followed by an Advanced course of two years. The objectives of the basic course are to enable a student to leave the University after three years if he so wishes and take up employment as an Architectural Draughtsman. Later he may return to complete the Advanced course. Students who have passed the Basic course with a minimum of 45% marks in each subject and who have scored an aggregate of at least 50% may continue directly to the Advanced course. In the Advanced course, one semester (i.e. six months), of practical training is compulsory. Other students who are not eligible to continue in the Advanced course, or who choose not to enrol, are offered a certificate for completing the Basic course.

Educational Policy In the Basic course the emphasis is on preparing the students for the current Architectural office practice with inputs of essential knowledge and skills. In the Advanced course the emphasis is on the theoretical aspects of Architectural creativity such as its role, context, issues involved and its aesthetic qualities etc. Live situations are taken up for analysis and attempts are made to reach the most feasible solutions.

The Bachelor of Architecture degree course is of 5 years duration. It is divided into two parts; first a Basic course

landscape design. A wide range of elective courses is available in workshops, arts and crafts, structures, technology, professional practice, humanities and design. During the tenth semester, students undertake independent investigation and research which is presented in the form of a thesis. To expose the students to various activities, programmes of related studies are organized during the winter break. The programmes are tailored to give environmental exposure and awareness through various activities like study tours, measured drawings of subjects of architectural interest, study of villages, sketching etc. Assessment of subjects is based on a credit system. A credit unit is roughly equivalent to one hour of lectures per week or 21/2 hours of workshop or 2/1/2 hours of laboratory and studio period per week. Normal study load on a student is 24 credit units per semester during the first two years increasing from 27 credits to 30 credits per semester from the 5th to the 9th semester. A student earns credits in those courses in which he has passed. Overall assessment is based on a student's total performance.

majority of the subjects in the course are mandatory, but there are electives available in the 9th and 10th semesters. The Department encourages inter-disciplinary and interdepartmental studies with its sister departments and laboratories.

Educational Policy Architecture is essentially a fusion of science and art. It finds its roots in building science and in a host of other considerations which include users' preference, socioeconomic and cultural needs and limitations, since buildings cannot be isolated from their environs. This calls for a multi-disciplinary approach in the formulation of the educational programme. Such a programme makes the student conversant with situational and objective studies from all angles and enables the student to derive effective solutions with the aid of sophisticated methods like computer programming, cost-benefit analysis etc.

The Sir JJ College of Architecture, situated in the premises of the Sir JJ School of Art, is the oldest Institute imparting Architectural education in India. The College has a long tradition of over 75 years. Distinguished architects and educators of the eminence of Professor Claude Bailey, Professor C.M. Master and others have been associated with the College in the capacity of its Principal. It is considered to be one of the foremost Institutes of Architecture not only in this country but also in this part of the World. The Architects who have been trained in this College have rendered very distinguished services. The origin of the College can be traced to the founding in 1896 of a Draftsman's Class attached to the Sir JJ School of Art which had been set up in the year 1856 by the Government of Bombay with grants made by the philanthrophist, Sir Jamshetji Jejcebhoy, the first Baronet of Bombay. The course was reorganized in 1914 to make it suitable for training in Architecture, and the Government Diploma Examination in Architecture was held for the first time in 1923. The entire course was again reorganized in 1936 and was made into a full-time five years' course. In 1952, the Department of Architecture was affiliated to the University of Bombay for teaching the courses leading to the Degree of Bachelor of Architecture. Owing to the reorganization of the Sir JJ School of Art, the Department of Architecture was formed into an independent institution under the name of the Sir JJ College of Architecture, in June 1958. The management of the College was transferred by the Government of Maharashtra to the University of Bombay in the 1973. The University has appointed a Standing

Committee as Board of Advisors to advise the University on all matters relating to the management of the college. In addition ot the full-time core staff, as many as 30 leading architects and specialists from respective fields are invited to teach as Visiting Lecturers so as to provide professional expertise.

Architecture Course The Sir JJ College of Architecture conducts a 5 year fulltime Bachelor of Architecture degree programme affiliated with the University of Bombay. A Master's Degree programme has been instituted by the University of Bombay and the College has started the programme which includes specialization in Industrial Projects, Urban and Rural Housing, Institutional Projects and Commercial Projects.

Educational Policy As the College is located in an urban city which is facing many problems of a complex nature, the College is oriented to meet the needs of the society of urban cities as well as rural areas.

Library Because the College is a pioneer and the largest institution imparting architectural education in India, it has a large collection on the historical buildings of India. Apart from this collection, the College library is considered one of the

BKP Sabha's College of Architecture (Affiliated to University of Poona) 2043 Sadashiv Peth Tilak Road Pune 411 030 Maharashtra India

Principal of the BKPS College of Architecture: Professor V.R. Sardesai

The College had its humble beginning as early as 1952 in the form of private coaching classes for the Diploma in Architecture examination. A five year full-time Diploma in Architecture course was run from 1954 to 1977. In 1978, after gaining affiliation with the University of Poona, the present College was formed for teaching courses leading to the Degree of Bachelor of Architecture. The College is located in a three storied building in the city centre of Pune about 200 km from Bombay. The College has five classrooms and the rest of the building is used by the Art Department. The Government of Maharashtra funds the expenditure, and the College is managed by a Governing Council in concurrence with the Director of Technical Education M.S. Bombay. The academic programme is under the control of the University of Poona.

Projects of the city development. For sessional work, the sutdents are given projects related to needed re-development and the growth of the city. This activity forms a part of the social commitment objective acknowledged by the College. As well as the live projects, the students submit as part of their sessional work, measured drawings of buildings of historical importance. Many such buildings are likely to be demolished through neglect and such a record of them is useful documentation for posterity.

Architecture Course The Bachelor of Architecture course consists of 10 semesters spread over a period of 5 years duration. It is a systematic and graded course. The 8th semester is devoted to professional training in an Architect's office or Site office. During this semester, students are also expected to take instructions for their dissertation work.

Educational Policy Architectural education of the third world should have relevance to the problems and aspirations of people of that area. As such, our teaching is orientated more to practical aspects and less towards Utopian ideals. This has obvious disadvantages but we are trying to form a firm foundation of down to earth architects so that at a later date, the ideal could be accomplished. It can be generalised that this process will partly lead to the concept of a barefoot architect who in turn can be of use to the less developed community by contributing effectively to the process of building if needed with his own hands. Sophistication in construction is lacking in this part of the world including the non-availability of basic building -

materials like cement. Hence an architect is better suited for site decisions with innovation skills if needed. Our students are led to realise their social responsibilities in terms of economic use or effective optimization of building materials and ratio of cost to habitable area of the built form. Much is yet to be accomplished by way of formulating curricula, checking the same against field trials and changing it if needed within the existing frame of University regulations.

Library The library has a total of 2,397 books on architecture, physical planning and allied subjects of authors both from overseas and India. In addition to these books 18 foreign and Indian journals are subscribed. A collection of about 1,000 slides is also available on subjects such as examples of modern architecture, landscape, structures and precast building technology.

Chandigarh College of Architecture was established on 7 August, 1961. It is situated in Sector 12, Chandigarh and shares a campus with the Punjab Engineering College.

Architecture Course The college has a semester system, and conducts a five year course leading to the degree of Bachelor of Architecture,(BArch). A 2-tier system was introduced in 1985-86. No students have as yet been admitted to the second tier. The ten semesters are grouped in two stages: Stage 1 from first to sixth semester, and Stage 2 from seventh to tenth semester. A candidate who successfully completes the stage 1 of the course is awarded the degree of Bachelor of Building Science (BBS). Only those who secure 60% or more aggregate marks for the first stage in the course are eligible for continuing their studies at the 2nd stage. The college is affiliated to the Panjab University. The administrative control of the college lies with the Home Secretary, Chandigarh Administration, Chandigarh. The BArch course consists of Art, Architectural and Technological subjects. It includes 6 month practical training which the students undergo during the 7th Semester in various architectural offices/firms throughout the country.

Educational Policy The students of architecture are trained by exposing them to live problems, situations and circumstances especially relating to the region. Teaching is based on an interdisciplinary approach which entails numerous site visits and on the spot studies. Students are encouraged to make their own observations of facts, to analyse and to evaluate them so that they may learn to consider the relevance of such studies to the requirements of actual course-work in architectural design, which is the main subject. The concept of architectural design itself gradually takes shape over the total duration of the course. Beginning with an introduction to principles of basic design, form and composition, it culminates in a research and/or design thesis.

Library The College library is a part of the College building. It has approximately 8,000 architecture books and 28 architectural journals.

Facilities and Resources Facilities and resources includes: 1000 slides; photographic dark-room; graphic studio; slide projector; epidioscope;

Dean of the Faculty of Built Environment: Professor Ezrin Arbi Deputy Dean of the Department of Architecture: Mr Kamaruddin Mohd. Nor Telephone Enquiries: 07-561501/2

The Universiti Teknologi Malaysia (known then as the National Institute of Technology) was established in 1972 to replace the former Technical College which, however, formed the nucleus of the new institution. The Technical College started in 1925 as a Technical School for the training of technicians for the Public Works Department. In 1930 it was opened to other government departments. In view of the high standard of training provided, the government decided in 1941 to upgrade the status of the Technical School to that of a Technical College. Due to the Second World War the building programme for the proposed Technical College was not completed By 1960 courses leading to various until 1955. professional examinations were incorporated into the teaching programme including Architecture. This was the first course in architecture of any kind in this country. The three year course leading to the Diploma in Building Design (Technical College) was organized in line with the requirements of the Royal Institute of British Architects. That course has since been replaced by an integrated course in architecture consisting of a three years Diploma in Architecture and a six year Bachelor of Architecture. Within the Universiti Teknologi Malaysia, the Departments of Architecture, Urban and Regional Planning

and Quantity Surveying form the Faculty of Built Environment. A proposed addition to the Faculty will be the Department of Landscape Architecture. Since 1985, the University has been located in a new campus in Skudai, Johore.

Architecture Course The integrated architecture programme is geared not only to meet the national demand for architects but also the greater demand for technical assistants. Students may leave the course at the end of 3rd year with a Diploma in Architecture or they may proceed on to the full six year professional Bachelor of Architecture degree. The advantages of having an integrated curriculum are

many:

It means economy of resources. It is a logical and rational sequence of training. It gives every student equal opportunity of selection to do the full professional course. By delaying final selection to the end of the third year it will result in only the best students being allowed to pursue the full course. -ccornm It provides ample time for 'late developers' to prove

themselves.

It is more flexible and will allow for adjustments to be made at a later date on the output ratio of Archtiects to Technical Assistants as and when the need arises and resources permit. Students who leave the course at the end of the third year with the Diploma but who are given the chance to rejoin the full Degree programme later on would not be at any disadvantage. During the 10th semester, BArch students undertake a minimum of 6 months practical training in architects' offices.

Institut Teknologi Mara Department of Architecture School of Architecture, Planning and Surveying Institut Teknologi Mara Shar Alain Selangor Malaysia

The School started in July 1967 with an initial enrolment of 60 students under the name of the School of Applied Art which was later changed to the School of Art and Architecture. It was in 1971 that the School of Art and Architecture was split, and led to the establishment of two separate schools namely, the School of Architecture, Planning and Surveying and the School of Art and Design. Today, the School of Architecture, Planning and Surveying has six departments conducting eleven courses. The six departments are: Department of Architecture. Department of Building. Department of Estate Management. Department of Interior Design. Department of Quantity Surveying. Department of Town and Regional Planning.

Architecture Course The Department of Architecture offers a course in architecture at two different levels, the diploma in architecture and the advanced diploma in architecture.

Head of the School of Architecture, Planning and Surveying: Syed Ziad Wapha

Telephone Enquiries: 03-592394

While including the Institute's requirements, the curriculum formulated by the Department covers the art and science of buildings stressing the social and climatic conditions in the hot and humid tropical zones within which Malaysia is situated. The School hopes this course would help to contribute to evolve a Malaysian identity in architecture. The scientific and technological bias of the training is so devised such that all students will assume responsibility in their jobs, posses business spirit and leadership abilities while still having creative skills. The Departments curriculum is geared towards producing semi-professional graduates (diploma level) with allowances inbuilt for those wishing to complete the advanced diploma course. The Diploma in Architecture is a four-year (8 semester) full-time course with a compulsory practical training programme in the 6th semester in private, government or quasi-government offices. The Advanced Diploma in Architecture is a two-year (4 semester) full-time course. The curriculum has been designed to impart a professional level of training to

Building Technology; Building Practice; Topics in Architecture; Electives. The School offers postgraduate degrees in Architecture (MArch and PhD) on the basis of a thesis and also it supports research activities. The School in addition conducts an active program of guest lectures and seminars, involving visiting local and international experts.

Ecucational Policy The School recognises a multi-dimensional context to building activity, and a multiplicity of roles its graduates can pursue. Its thrust is to stress a) a foundation education comprising a minimum vocational competency in designing and building in the local climate, cultural and largely urban context, b) a diverse exposure to ideas, intentions and roles in architecture, and c) the nurturing of a creative, critical and independent thinking ability. This is pursued through a balance of theory and practice, in both design studios and supporting lectures or tutorials, wherein students are encouraged to participate in an open and lively exchange of ideas, values and intentions in design.

Library The Central Library Collection includes approximately 662,000 volumes of books and bound periodicals on the humanities, social sciences, physical and biological business sciences, administration, accountancy, engineering and architecture. The Library resources include Current Periodicals, recommended books ('red-spot' books), the Reference collection, the Singapore/Malaysia collection, the Japanese collection, the Theses collection, Press clippings, Company reports, the Pamphlet collection and Mircoform collection. The newly expanded Media Resource Centre has a collection comprising audio cassettes, audio tapes, audio discs, films, film strips, tape/slide programmes and video cassettes. Of the 7,200 periodicals kept in the Current Periodical Reading Room, over 280 pertain to architecture and related There are approximately 15,000 bound disciplines. periodicals and books in the areas of architecture, decorative and applied arts, interior design, visual

The Department of Architecture commenced in 1961 in response to the growing national need for architects at a time when foreign exchange was scarce for overseas training. In 1968 the Department moved from its first location in the Institute of Practical Technology to the University of Ceylon in Colombo. With subsequent changes in the structure of University education in Sri Lanka, the Department moved to a separate Department within the Faculty of Engineering and Architecture in the University of Sri Lanka, Katubedda Campus. In 1979 the Department became a part of the newly created Faculty of Architecture and Town and Country Planning in the University of Moratuwa. The University is located approximately one hours drive from Colombo.

The objects of the MSc(Arch) is to achieve excellence in designing built environments. Design problems are to be solved at a deeper level to result in built environments which are meaningful and appropriate as well as being competent. The emphasis is on achieving an environment that is not only competent but which actively facilitates the purposes for which these environments are designed, and is also endowed with character and intellectual content in addition to esthetic and technical excellence.

Architecture Course

The overall purpose of the course is to provide a broad based education in architecture with orientation towards specific skills. The specific skill the course aims at achieving at this stage of its development is to produce primarily good designers. The Department has adopted an overall aim to educate for creativity generally, and specifically for competence at the first degree level and for excellence at the second degree level.

The structure of the architecture course is 3 + 1 + 2 years. The three year full-time Bachelor of Science (Built Environment) course is followed by one year of supervised and approved practical experience before students enter the two year full-time course leading to the Master of Science in Architecture. The primary objective of the BSc(BE) is to achieve competence in designing built environments. Design problems are to be solved at an appropriate depth to result in built environments which are well planned, technically sound and esthetically acceptable. The emphasis is on achieving technically competent environments where systems of circulation, services and activities are articulated and integrated into a physical order that takes

The University of Malta Department of Architecture and Civil Engineering The University of Malta Msida Malta

Head of the Department of Architecture and Civil Engineering: Professor Cassar Anthony Telephone Enquiries: Malta 333919 or 333903 ext 262/250

The Department of Architecture and Civil Engineering at The University of Malta was established on August 1, 1978 through the amalgamation of the Department of Architecture run by the University of Malta and the Civil Engineering Department run by MCAST on the basis of a student-worker scheme. It was later transferred in October of the same year to the Architectural Studies Building at the University campus at Tal-Qroqq. With the introduction of the student-worker concept, the degree course was re-structured to provide not only academic training but also practical experience. The history of the teaching of architecture goes back to the 19th century when a course of professional studies started at the Lyceum. The course was transferred to the University, the degree of Bachelor of Engineering and Architecture (BE&A) being conferred for the first time in 1910. The Chair of Architecture and Engineering was established in 1915, giving the profession the same status of Medicine and Law. These developments were formally institutionalised by the enactment of the Architects Ordinance in 1919. Following attempts to achieve recognition abroad, the University started to award separate BArch and BEng degrees, the BE&A course being phased Out in 1956. A separate course in Civil Engineering (BSc) was started at the Polytechnic, while the course in architecture was reconstructed. Following further amendments to the Architects Ordinance the BE&A course was reintroduced and the BSc(Eng) course phased out.

Architecture Course The whole course is divided into two equal alternating

parts a study phase of 51/2 months, a work phase of 51/2 months, and a holiday period in August. The study phase is devoted entirely to formal teaching, while the work phase is spent in actual employment on duties directly connected with the course of study itself. Throughout the duration of the course, worker-students alternate regularly between study and work periods. On entry into the course, the class is divided into approximately equal groups, one of which goes directly into the work phase, the other directly into the study phase. At any one time, therefore, any sponsoring employer always has one half of the number of students studying and the same number available for practical training in the form of work. A degree of flexibility is maintained between the two phases, so that any necessary adjustments on academic or personal grounds can be effected. The course requires seven semesters of study and seven semesters of related work experience. The first semester will be aimed at providing a sound basis for further progress in the course and at bringing out the aptitude of each student for the particular disciplines in the profession. The next four semesters will be aimed at developing the necessary tools and information so that an overall technical competence is guaranteed. In the final two semesters there will be a possibility of following options in advanced study in particular fields, as approved by Faculty Board to relate to the needs of the country and to the changes in technology. In the last two semesters as well the students will be involved in the preparation of a written dissertation, and in a thesis design project. These two final assignments will evaluate the students' ability to -

The academic semesters will involve a committed study time of twenty-five hours a week for the first two semesters going down to twenty-one hours a week by the sixth semester. The students will spend a total of about one hundred and forty weeks working in an Architectural/Civil Engineering establishment, following a programme of practical training designed and monitored by the University, in conjunction with the various organizations sponsoring the students. A log-book of his work experience will be kept by each student and will provide him and the University and his employers a useful record of his progress.

Educational Policy The Worker-Student Scheme

Following the restructuring of teritary education through the enactment of amendments to the Education Act, the Engineering and Architecture course is planned to meet the demand being created by a constantly expanding industry and to fit in with the facilities available in the light of the overall national resources. Furthermore, the system ensures, as far as possible, that prospects for employment become immediately available, integrates professional and work experience within the overall curriculum and ensures the accessibility of tertiary education to all by the introduction of allowances (in the form of a regular salary) to students. This enables them to obtain financial independence and/or contribute to their family budget on commencement of their University studies. The students enrolled for Engineering and Architecture are sponsored either by the Government or by Private The sponsor pays the student a salary Industry. throughout the whole period of the course, at rates fixed by the Government, which are on a rising scale. In the case of students already in employment, their salaries continue to be paid by the sponsoring employer. Provision is made for every form of private sponsorship. The number of students registering for the course is subject to flexibile control as demanded by both sponsorships and overall requirements.

University of Bath School of Architecture and Building Engineering University of Bath Claverton Down Bath BA2 6JX United Kingdom

The City of Bath was built when architecture and civil engineering might be thought to have been simpler subjects; with its complex of Georgian buildings Bath represents one of the most perfect expressions of a single approach to architecture whose roots go back 2500 years to the Done temple. Yet then, as now, design stemmed from an understanding of the known world and a forecast of what is likely to be satisfactory. The City and the University thus together form the background to the teaching. Design problems in buildings are multi-disciplinary and in recognition of this the School tries to educate together those who will later work together. it is the only joint School of Architecture and Building Engineering in this country. Architecture; The School teaches three streams: Civil/Structural Engineering; Building Environmental Engineering and a taught Masters degree in Construction Studies. In the first year all courses are taught together in order to produce well rounded professionals with a knowledge of the culture of each others disciplines.

Architecture Course In the School of Architecture and Building Engineering, academic study alternates with practical training in offices or on site. Students doing both degrees spend a total of six years at the University and in periods of practical training.

BSc in General Architectural Studies The BSc degree course gives a wide understanding of the basic principles and technologies involved in the design of buildings and their setting. It also places architecture within a social and historical context and tries to create an awareness of the various traditions which influence how we both make and understand buildings. The work is based on comprehensive design projects done in the studios and on lecture programmes and tutuorials. The design studies increase in complexity as the course proceeds. The curriculum includes the following subjects: design theory and practice, drawing, mathematics including computer studies, physics, materials, structures, building services, soil mechanics, building construction, history of architecture, practice, management, law, psychology,

[lead of the School of Architecture and Building Engineering: Professor E Happold Professor of Architecture: Professor M Brawne Telephone Enquiries: Bath 826826 (Dr Collier Webb, Admin. Asst.)

sociology, planning, landscaping, specification and costs, surveying. In the first year of the course students spend three terms in the University; during the second, third and fourth years, the Autumn and Spring Term are in the University but the Summer Term is spent in training. The last period of professional training is normally followed by a further period of professional training which forms the first term of the BArch course for students going on to that course. Admission to the Bachelor of Architecture degree which follows is not automatic; students are selected on their attainment in the BSc degree course and require at least a Second Class Honours degree in the Second Division.

BArch in Architecture While the two year second degree course is concerned with advanced study and applications of the principles, knowledge and skills acquired in the earlier years, its main objective is to broaden responses to creative design. Wider and more comprehensive problems of architectural, technological and environmental relevance are researched, but at the same time project briefs are deliberately left loose so that, on the one hand, a range of solutions may be studied and, on the other, students have freedom to pursue their own architectural interests. The course is therefore devised for students who have already developed some talent for design and an understanding of its principles. Design theory and the building technologies are advanced and developed in direct relation to the various projects being undertaken by means of seminars and staff consultations. At the same time the formal comparatively brief lecture courses emphasize those subjects which directly relate to architectural practice. Apart from these lectures, the two terms of the first year are devoted equally to design project work and a written dissertation. The latter provides an opportunity, after an eight month spell in practice, for students to pursue selfchosen subjects in detail and with some originality. The second year of the course, with most formal lectures now out of the way, concentrates on projects which give a greater range of choice. Any student may elect to spend the whole year on a self-chosen design thesis under appropriate supervision, but the normal course provides a structured programme of project work centred on some particular large scale issue. Built urban forms are analysed and an urban design context, formulated perhaps

by small groups of students, is generally established as part of the work. Within this realistic discipline, students are then free to develop individual design projects of their own choice. The BArch course consists of six terms, five of which are spent in the University. The Autumn Term of the first year is part of the extended period of practical training between the first and second degree. Alter completing the two degree courses, students work in an architect's office for the seventh year of the course and attend a two day course in the School in October/November followed by a written and oral exam. Successful candidates can then register with ARCUK and RIBA.

Educational Policy The School believes strongly that intending architects need a structured mixture of academic and practical experience. While many of the permanent staff are practitioners, visiting critics drawn from working practices of merit are regularly available in all design studios. With the benefit

of learning in school alongside engineers coupled with interludes of professional training (luring four of the six years spent at the University, the School stands for a different and, we believe, advanced approach to architectural education.

Facilities and Resources The School has laboratories for concrete, mechanics, geotechnics, surveying, acoustics, lighting, thermal and computer studies. Studios and discussion rooms are used for design teaching. Research is being carried out on the structural and environmental aspects of lightweight flexible structures such as airhouses, tents, river control dams, airships and the like as well as on the fundamental problems of energy needs in buildings, on geotechnics and structures. One of the important current projects deals with the problems of designing an Arctic township. Other research work deals with historical and building-type problems in architecture. Many visitors come to lecture, give criticisms or attend seminars and there is an active student society.

Head of the Birmingham School of Architecture: Mr O.E. Naddermier

Birmingham is Britain's second city. It is the most populous provincial city in Britain. Although it has been a market centre since 1166 it owes its importance to the continuous expansion of metal manufacturing trades since the 17th century. The origins of the Birmingham School of Architecture lie in the evening classes for articled pupils starred by the local Architectural Association in the 19th century. The full-time day course at the College of Art was begun in 1908 and grew rapidly, gaining the approval and recognition of the Royal Institute of British Architects for the intermediate Examination in 1923 and for the Final Examination in 1930. The Polytechnic was designated in 1971. The Faculty of the Built Environment within the City of Birmingham Polytechnic is a grouping of three departments unique within Midland institutions of advanced further education. It combines the Birmingham School of Architecture, the Department of Construction and Surveying, and the Department of Planning and Landscape which, between them, offer an extensive range of educational provisions for those who currently practise in the industries and professions of the built environment and those who wish to do so after qualification by full or part-time study. The Birmingham School of Architecture is located on the main campus at Perry Barr three miles north of the City Centre.

Students who have successfully completed the whole course (part I and part II) can take the final (part III) examination after working in an architect's office for a On successfully completing this further year. examination, they are fully qualified. In 1984/85 the School introduced a new staffing policy. One of the aims of this policy was to encourage staff and students to work together in groups called Design Studios to tackle the academic programme from particular viewpoints. The Design Studios each comprise two or three members of the academic staff complemented by visiting teachers. Each Design Studio has an identifiable theme and recruits a set number of students from various years of both courses. The objectives of the Design Studio are: (a)to encourage students to develop convictions about architecture and architectural design; (b)to enable more small group teaching to take place despite increases in year sizes; (c)to enable staff to develop through the teaching programme, areas of greater expertise and authority in aspects of architectural design that appeal to them; (d)to encourage staff and students from different years to work together in areas of common interest to their mutual benefit; (e)to promote a variety of design philosophies throughout the School whose interaction is beneficial to everyone.

Architecture Course The first three years of the course, leading to the degree of Bachelor of Arts with Honours in Architecture is a balance of theoretical, practical and professional study intended primarily, but not exclusively, for the prospective architect who will proceed as a graduate student to the School's Part II Diploma Course. Some graduates may wish to take a different direction; into industry or commerce by research, by studying for a related discipline such as Town Planning or Landscape Architecture: the degree will facilitate a broad career structure. The Graduate Diploma Course is an eight-term course leading to the award of the Polytechnic Diploma in Architecture, which is recognised by the RIBA as providing exemption from its Examination (Part Two). The mandatory requirement for entry to the course is that a

Educational Policy Students in the BA(Hons) Undergraduate course are encouraged to develop individual enthusiasm and expertise in an atmosphere that balances initiative with the firm foundation of knowledge. Lectures and seminars are used to teach most subjects which are then applied and tested in the main design projects. The aim is that students will develop a balanced range of skills which can be quickly pLit to use in architectural design. In the Diploma course students are encouraged to develop for themselves aspects of advanced architectural design. The architectural language employed by students in the upper part of the School is more complex and the debate more intense than in earlier years. Students pursue architectural projects on contemporary and future issues

Architecture Course

The final year is committed to the completion of dissertations, and the design of a comprehensive design thesis which is intended to stretch and finally to demonstrate the student's rounded ability to develop, design, present and defend a major building proposal.

B(Hons) Architectural Design The course is intended to produce graduates who have developed an understanding of architecture in society and in history, who have demonstrated skills in the collection and ordering of information, the designing of major buildings, in the understanding of building behaviour, and who have acquired competence to engage usefully in their first year of practical training. Diploma in Architecture During the first year of the course the students address a variety of complex urban studies, both in the design of particular buildings and in associated studies of urban history, theory, and action. Substantial demands are made on the student's ability to address and manipulate varied and conflicting urban pressures and to develop and refine skills of analysis, resolution, and presentation. Scholarship is pursued in the preparation of individual research dissertations on subjects of the student's interest.

Educational Policy The School is committed to the challenge of preparing people for high professional engagement with the built environment. It is convinced that design education is the proper vehicle for this, and that all of the specialist and supportive studies contribute to and are inseparable from the work of the design studio. It fully acknowledges the value of an education in Architecture as a preparation for a great diversity of roles in the world, but is committed to the proposition that the best preparation is a disciplined, studio centred, professionally orientated course of study, from which diversification may naturally emerge, rather than be educationally articulated.

The Department of Architecture is a Department of the University offering courses at undergraduate and postgraduate levels. Every student of the Department is required to be in residence and to be a member of a Cambridge College. It is therefore necessary for anyone wishing to read Architecture at Cambridge to apply for acceptance by a College and admission to the University. The Martin Centre for Architectural and Urban Studies is the research division of the Department of Architecture. It was created in 1974 by the amalgamation of the centre for Land Use and Built Form Studies and the Technical Research Division of the Department of Architecture, and provides the frame work within which all funded research and postgraduate studies are organised. The Centre honours in its title Sir Leslie Martin, Emeritus Professor of Architecture.

Architecture Course The Undergraduate (BA) course The first three years of the course lead to a BA Honours Degree and exemption from Part I of the Royal Institute of British Architects' Examination. This course provides a basic grounding in the subject of architecture. It is intended to establish on the one hand the basis for a body of technical, historical and theoretical knowledge and on the other to apply this knowledge to the study of known questions of building and the built environment. The intention is to discover how the

requirements of a particular project can be translated into design proposals through an analysis of those requirements in their cultural context and the evolution of an appropriate building form. Design is the core discipline of these studies and that in turn necessarily entails formal exercises in criticism. Studies may be either individual or collective. They all involve the presentation of studio work in which specialised studies are brought together in the finished design and this studio work forms the major educational process throughout the course. In addition to these general design exercises, projects of a specifically technical nature are set throughout the course. These take the form of short projects set within the framework of an individual year. The Diploma Course The two-year Diploma Course is normally begun after a year spent gaining practical experience, usually in an architect's office. The course leads to the Diploma in Architecture of the University and exemption from Part 2 of the R.I.B.A. Examination. Admission to the course is at the discretion of the diploma Admissions Committee and is normally open to those whose undergraduate work in the University suggests they will be able to benefit from the course; and also to suitably qualified candidates from other universities and schools of architecture. The Diploma Course includes both design projects and written work. Project work is carried out in studio groups drawn from both fourth and fifth year students. This form of studio structure allows each student some choice

MPhil Degree The Department established in 1984 a one-year taught course in History and Theories of Architecture leading to the MPhil Degree. From October 1987 a course in Environmental Design leading to the MPhil Degree will also be offered.

Educational Policy

Postgraduate Research Research for the degree for a PhD is carried out by an individual over a period of three years (two years for MSc or MLitt) with a supervisor, who is a specialist in the particular field of research. A paper is required at the end of the first year of study detailing the research that has been completed and outlining the programme for future research. If completed successfully the student is then registered for the degree. A thesis of not more than 80,000 words is examined by two external examiners who submit reports on the thesis and on an oral examination. If their recommendations are approved by the Degree Committee and the Board of Graduate Studies the student is awarded the degree. Professional Qualification Qualification for registration as an architect requires a period of two years of practical experience. One year at least must be taken after the completion of the fifth year course. A course of lectures and seminars in Professional Practice is held at the Department each year during July. The Examination, which is held at the Department each year in October, qualifies the candidate for admission to the Register of the Architects Registration Council of the

Architecture is a vocational subject in which the period at school must be seen as the foundation of an evolving process many aspects of which only emerge in subsequent practice. These aspects cannot be authentically simulated in a school. Conversely, practice leaves little time to study fundamental questions about the why and the what of architecture and these are precisely the aspects which are proper to disciplines of University teaching. Accordingly in this Department the emphasis given to all of the topics lies in the theoretical and historical grounds of the subject. This is the process of questioning, analysis and research for which there is little time later in the day-to-day activities of practice but which alone will give that practice a foundation of principle and precedent upon which to base future action.

Library The Faculty Library is shared with the Department of History of Art and housed in Scroope Terrace. It contains a particularly good collection of source books on 18th and 19th century architecture. The technical section has been much expanded since 1977. The Faculty Library is supplemented by those of the Engineering Department, the Fitzwilliam Museum and the Colleges. The Library contains 13,500 books and 5,500 bound periodicals, including an unusually full array of early periodicals. The slide collection holds about 40,000 slides.

Canterbury College of Art School of Architecture Canterbury College of Art New Dover Road Canterbury Kent United Kingdom

Head of the School of Architecture: Mr Michael Crux

Canterbury is a small Cathedral City with many fine mediaeval churches and secular buildings. The School of Architecture is a department of a College of Art accommodated in new buildings set in an attractive landscape of mature trees and lawns not far from the City centre. Students are able to combine the advantages of working in semi-rural surroundings with relatively easy access to London and its facilities. Canterbury also lies in easy reach of the richly varied Kentish coastline and the nearby channel ports gives ease of access to other European cities. The School has a yearly intake of 30-35 students and a total of about 150 within the School and a further 25 on practical training. The advantages of its comparatively small size are evident in the day-to-day informality of the School and its friendliness. It allows matters which may concern the School as a community to be discussed quickly and easily by the School as a whole. The College of Art teaches painting, sculpture and graphic design to degree level and many of the facilities of the other departments are available to students of Architecture. In particular, the 3-Dimensional Workshop is well-used by them for mocking-up and testing architectural or component designs.

written studies in Sociology and History requiring a high level of individual initiative are also undertaken.

Professional Architecture Course BA (Honours) Degree Course After an Introductory Course lasting three terms the student embarks on the main design course which lasts six terms and leads to the award of a degree and to exemption from Part I of the RIBA examinations. The main teaching vehicles are Projects, which generally relate to building designs. These are studies in terms of their siting, their users' needs, their aesthetic and technical implications and their effective communication. Most projects last a term (though some may be shorter) and are realistic exercises in design. The range of subjects undertaken aims to give the student an experience of most aspects of architecture. The lecture and seminar courses in Technical Studies, History, and Ideas and Theories, which run parallel with the projects, contribute to the developing understanding of architectural issues ganed through project work. Students have considerable freedom of choice of project subjects. Of the six to be carried out two are set for all to do. Three may be selected from various possibilities offered and one is to be entirely self-motivated by the student working in conjunction with the tutorial staff. In addition, major

Diploma Course The two-year full-time Diploma Course follows an intermediate year of practical training. It is an extension to the Degree Course but the School welcomes applicants who wish to transfer from other Schools. All project work is carried out in a Diploma School Unit. A Unit normally consists of 15 fourth and fifth year students working together with two staff members who come together to focus on an aspect of architectural design that seems relevant to them. Each Unit represents a different approach to architectural design and together the Units offer a wide spectrum of choice and experience to draw on. Students may wish to change Units frequently to gain maximum experience or may stay in one Unit for the whole course in order to develop a particular interest in more depth. Unit work bases are informally arranged in an open plan studio allowing each its own identity without the loss of contact with the activities of other Units. A degree of healthy rivalry exists between Units in both work and social matters and the studio has a lively atmosphere. A basic core of lectures is concentrated into the first two terms of the Diploma Course followed by written examinations in Term 3. The lectures are so portioned to give maximum teaching input to project and study work at an early stage and allow the Part II written examinations to be taken and cleared in the first half of the course. The subjects covered are Advanced Technology, Structures, Building and Urban Economics and Professional Practice. The Advanced Technology course continues into the second year with practical design exercises integrated with Unit work, visits and Case Studies. The Professional Practice course continues with organised vists to a range of different practices to study management techniques. The Diploma gives exemption from Part II of the RIBA examinations and is awarded on the basis of continuous termly assessment of all work together with the 3rd term examinations. After a second year of practical training, and following the Part III Examination, graduates may then apply for full membership to the RIBA and register as architects with the Architects Registration Council of the United Kingdom.

Educational Policy

Library

At one time many architecture schools were located in Colleges of Art in a natural association with the practice of the other arts and crafts. Since the creation of Polytechnics and the expansion of the Universities this situation has changed and the course at Canterbury is now the only course in England which remains in an independent College of Art. The course that we offer seeks to reflect this situation in that special emphasis is placed upon drawing and painting and opportunities are provided within the course to take advantage of the facilities of the College as a whole. This enables students to engage in creative design in such fields as furniture, jewellery, print making, textiles and sculpture. The main study is of course architecture and here the School aims to provide a course which develops from a common base into a situation where students have some measure of a choice in the projects and studies that they make. This is particularly so in the Diploma Course where students select from different Unit programmes. Lecture courses are provided to run in parallel with the project work and are taught by specialist lecturers.

Thames Polytechnic, Dartford School of Architecture and Landscape Faculty of the Built Environment Thames Polytechnic Oakfield Lane Dartford Kent DA1 2SZ United Kingdom

Thames Polytechnic School of Architecture and Landscape is strategically located on a pleasant semi-rural campus at Dartford, between London and the Kent countryside. The School offers a total of nine fully integrated fulltime and part-time courses in both Architecture and Landscape Architecture. All Architecture courses give full exemption from the relevant Parts (1, 2, and 3) of the RIBA Examination in Architecture. It is the only School in the United Kingdom to offer a BA Honours Degree in Architecture to part-time students, or an Honours Diploma for students with Special Entry to RIBA Part 2. The facilities are excellent. The buildings are light and modem, and there are residential places on campus for 250 students. The design studios are open until midnight and at weekends for most of the year. The School is part of the Polytechnic's Faculty of the Built Environment, of which the other member schools, Civil Engineering and Surveying, are shortly to be accommodated on the same campus, which also has a fully equipped Short Course Centre.

Architecture Course BA (Hons) Architecture The School offers a course in architecture leading to a BA Degree with Honours to students who wish to become architects and also to students who seek an education in architecture without wishing to become architects but who have a high level of intellectual ability and seek a wide education with a view, possibly, to a future career in an associated area of work. Both the 'professional' route (Route 1) and the 'non-professional' route (Route 2) may be studied by 3 years full-time or longer part-time study programmes or by a judicious combination of full and parttime programmes. Route 1, which also leads to exemption from the Royal Institute of British Architects' Part 1 Examination, includes an intensive study of architectural design which a student has to pass at a high level in order to continue on this Route. Route 2 is quite independent of RIBA examinations and involves a high level of attainment in Humanities projects together with intensive architectural studies other than design which, however, have practical as well as theoretical ends. This Route is offered especially in the part-time programme

mode and, to assist mature students, the School will extend the period over which the course can be studied and consider sympathetically applications to take the normal work of any session in two stipulated suitable parts. The course curriculum comprises studies over several groups of subjects. Generally Design (Route 1) or Architectural Studies (Route 2) comprises the main core and discipline of the Routes and these subjects are developed over several consecutive periods of ten weeks; each of these periods equating approximately to a term but entitled a Module in the School. The work of each Module is in accordance with a directed Field of Study that determines the development of the subject. In the early part of the course the projects are consecutive and discrete. Later they are consecutive but linked to involve greater complexity of viewpoint and demand on performance. At the culmination of the course the projects test the student's ability to offer integrated solutions to a variety of concurrent complex problems. Diploma with Honours in Architecture The course extends over two years, normally following a year of practical experience in an architect's office. The course is intended for graduates who wish to be architects and become eligible for corporate membership of the RIBA and election to the Register of the Architects' Registration Council of the United Kingdom. It affords exemption from Part 2 of the RIBA Examination in Architecture. The course is linked with a part-time Diploma with Honours course extending over three years for students who are currently working in an architect's office. Fulltime students who wish to opt for a period of part-time education will be encouraged to do so subject to satisfying educational requirements. The course is intended to equip students with the attitudes and abilities required for a career in architecture and will concentrate on theoretical comprehension and those skills needed to design well and build securely. The main discipline is archtiectural design informed by a more advanced study of varying contributing subjects in the areas of humanities, technology and professional studies. The broad and varied programme of project work includes options in design at various stages and an Architectural Appraisal dealing with the communication of ideas in

118

society. A dissertation on a chosen subject may be offered. Professional Postgraduate Certificate in Architectural Studies The course aims to ensure that the advanced student has the sound grasp of the ethical, economic, managerial and legal aspects of architecture required of an architect in private or government practice. The course which is recognised by the RIBA to exempt successful students from Part 3 of its Examination in Architecture, enables qualified students to have their names recorded as architects with the Architects' Registration

Council of the United Kingdom and to apply for corporate membership of the RIBA. The course includes the study of architectural management and legal studies applied to architectural practice. Individual tutorials are offered to students preparing a Comprehensive Case Study. Advice is given in regard to the suitability of office experience being gained in relation to the Examinations. The course may be taken in either of two modes: 1. As a one year part-time evening course from October to (normally) the November of the session following, with attendance required one evening each week and occasionally for special seminars.

This mode is available specifically to the School's fulltime and part-time Diploma students who will have the course integrated with their studio work and participate in site visits to study managerial practice.

Educational Policy The Schools education policy is founded on the conviction that knowledge of the art and science of architecture is of continuing importance to society if it is to have fine buildings and is to direct the process of environmental change. Clearly such knowledge is needed by the architect but also, and no less, by the educated laymen so that people may better appreciate the potential contribution of architecture to society and, in turn, are able to articulate its participation in the architectural process. Graduates who are to be able to contribute to such ends must be widely educated and highly literate; possessed of a thorough academic grounding and have also an understanding of human problems in present-day society.

Architecture has been studied at Huddersfield since 1921, though recognition from the RIBA did not begin until 1975.

The School enjoys a growing reputation as one which provides a varied yet balanced education in architecture. It has strong roots in the local community, but at the same time it takes in students from all parts of the UK and from many countries overseas; likewise its graduates take up positions of responsibility on a world-wide basis.

Architecture Course BA Course

The primary purpose of the undergraduate course in Architectural Studies is to educate and train students for the first stage of a professional career in architecture. At the same time the course is seen as a valid education in its own right, developing abilities in analysis, synthesis and criticism, and encouraging an awareness of broader issues and educational values. Year 1 aims to introduce students to the historical, environmental and technological dimensions of architecture. Students are initiated into the process of design and encouraged to develop their creative talents. The objectives in Year 2 involve an extension of the awareness of contextual factors, a deeper understanding of design technology and the nature of architecture, and an ability to design domestic and small public buildings. Year 3 aims to provide a thorough understanding of the built environment, its operation and its effects. It aims

also to complete the design and technical skills necessary for good architectural design at a moderate level of complexity, and to allow an opportunity for depth of study. Graduate Diploma Course This two year course is open to graduates from Huddersfield and graduates from other schools of architecture with a good first degree. The course aims to reinforce the student's ability to produce designs of high quality; to sharpen his/her awareness of the opportunities and constraints of practice; to develop further his/her capacity for independent thought and self-motivation; and to inculcate professional attitudes.

Educational Policy The course aims to establish in students a high degree of self-motivation and design initiative, offering a framework for them to develop their own approach to design and attitudes to architecture. In this respect the role of the staff is catalytic, presenting to students a collective view that architecture should enhance the lives of those experiencing it, offering choice and opportunity; that the quality of space and form is a paramount consideration; that technology is a means to an end; that the human response to the environment operates over a wide spectrum; that visual and spatial control is important throughout; that the architect through his training and sensibility is the only professional sufficiently concerned about such issues to

Head of the School of Architecture: Dr Tom Woolley

Telephone Enquiries: 0482 25938

The School as it is presently constituted was formed in September 1976, the object being to bring together all courses conducted by the College that were concerned with architecture, building and civil engineering in other words, those areas most immediately concerned with the built environment. The Courses in Architecture, however, have been running since 1935 in the former Regional College of Art. The formation of the Hull School of Architecture coincided with the formation of the Hull College of Higher Education which consists of three faculties: the Faculty of Science and Technology of which this School is a part; the Faculty of Arts; and the Faculty of Business. The Schools operate independently but are structurally linked through the Faculty Board. The Hull College of Higher Education was renamed Humberside College of Higher Education in 1983 with the addition of the Grimsby College. -

Architecture Course The Course in Architecture is in two related parts: The Hons Degree a three year full-time course leading to the BA Examination, which exempts students from RIBA Part 1, and is validated by CNAA. The Diploma a two year full-time course leading to the School's Diploma Examination which exempts students from RIBA Part 2. The School also offers a Professional Practice Course of

two years monitored practical training. The first year is normally taken between the completion of the Degree and the commencement of the Diploma. The second year, which must be Post-Diploma, has a related seminar course leading to a Post Qualification Certificate in Architectural Practice which exempts students from RIBA Part 3. An important thread running through the School is that the student's responsibility for his own education increases as he progresses. This necessitates a clearly defined structure at the beginning of the BA Course which become progressively less defined (by the School) until, in the Diploma Course, both the choice of projects and of subject areas are largely in the hands of the student. However, the dialogue between staff and students never diminishes and is full and vigorous throughout. The Workbase System The School considers that the best interests of students are served by accepting project based education and applying it within the context of a Workbase System, a series of specialist staff and student groups. By this method the School encourages an educational pattern which is both flexible and responsive to the differing and changing needs of students. This method also allows students to play as large a part as possible in decisions and choices which shape their overall educational experience. Equally important, however, is an understanding that any project in which students are involved must be firmly based on an appreciation of the context and constraints of the programme.

After the Introductory Year, students carry out their projects within one of a number of Workbases, each of which has a particular theme or major area of concentration. The choice of Workbase depends upon the students interests, but staff can require a student to enter a particular Workbase for a specific educational experience. A Workbase has students from all years other than Year 1. Project work may be selected by the student or recommended by the tutor and is carried out individually or in groups. Normally a student spends between one and three terms in a Workbase. Theory Courses (BA Degree Courses) In addition to the Workbase, where the design project work is carried out, there are two Subject Areas within which students must perform satisfactorily. Theory courses within the Subject Areas aim to provide the student with a range of skills and knowledge for the reinforcement of his deisgn project work. The two Subject Areas are: Humanities: part of the course is set and part optional, requiring student choice. Technical and Professional Studies: where each student is required to complete every part of the programme.

Educational Policy The School is concerned with the development of competence and confidence in the area of architecture, and aims to serve the interests of both the student and society. The interest of the student is served by the particular educational method adopted, which involves a course structure that both allows and requires the repeated exercise of choice in progression through it. At the same time, the

School is conscious that it is funded by society and must be responsive to the interests of society in general and the Humberside Community in particular. Encouragement is therefore given to work which is grounded securely in the perceived needs of the society and community.

Library The College Library provides lending, reference and information services on all main sites of the College. There are seven libraries, with a total book stock of about 200,000 volumes and over 1,500 periodicals are taken. The School of Architecture library contains over 9,000 books, pamphlets and bound periodicals covering architecture, design, planning, landscape, the building process and civil engineering. In addition the library subscribes to about 75 periodicals and keeps back runs of most of them. There is a small slide collection and a small but expanding catalogued collection of maps. Trade literature is provided through the RIBA Office Library Service.

Facilities and Resources Major changes and significant recent developments in resources are: Technical Studies The major improvement in the field of resources for the teaching of technical studies is the development of a materials/technical library within the School. At the same time the School has anticipated a move towards a greater degree of self-teaching in technical studies. Most recent acquisitions concern audio-visual equipment and the provision of slide-tape packages. This is a particularly valuable resource in developing and strengthening the technical studies.

125

Computer Studies The School has been and continues to be increasingly aware of the wide spread effects of information technology, and anticipating its use within the profession has, with college support, successfully pursued a policy of building up its micro-computing facilities. This has resulted in a rapid growth in hardware and software and the provision of increased accommodation. Staff development in the computing field has enabled us to provide a mandatory computing course as part of the first and second year technical programmes. An open door policy towards access to computing facilities for students has been encouraged and proved to be very successful. Workshop Facilities There has been a considerable upgrading and improvement in the Workshop facilities, particularly in provision for model making. This has enabled a course in model making to be organized each year and to provide courses in the use of Workshop equipment. A well equipped audio-visual workshop has been established, providing for the photographing of student work amongst other facilities. Other more specialist equipment and facilities are provided for within the Faculty and the College. An enhanced modelscope and video facility is now available in the School.

Mr Dennis Berry

Telephone Enquiries: 01-549 6151

The School of Architecture is part of the Faculty of Professional Studies, together with the School of Surveying and the School of Law. The School of Architecture is physically located in the Knights Park Centre of the Polytechnic. We are fortunate at Kingston in not having one great amorphous building, but a number of different centres, where disciplines of a similar type have been grouped together into what are essentially collegiate units. At Knights Park in addition to Architecture there are the Art and Design Schools (Fashion, Graphics, Three-Dimensional Design and Fine Art), the Art and Design Foundation course, and the School of Surveying. The Architectural Psychology Research Unit acts as a focus for members of staff with research interests in models of the relationship between man and the built environment and the implications of these models for architectural theory. The Architectural Psychology Newsletter which is published quarterly acts as a medium of communication for workers in the field.

between the 3rd and 4th academic year and one year minimum in an office after completing the Diploma. The design curriculum is structured in terms of students developing a critical apparatus. The School does not aim to teach students to design more and more complex buildings, but to criticise and investigate their buildings in more and more complex ways. Thus the curriculum develops in terms of the complexity of criticism brought to bear on the project, not in terms of the complexity of the project itself. This means that all projects are attempted as whole pieces of the design but are sometimes explored critically from a particular viewpoint. Coursework is based on a series of mandatory subjects which are taught through a system of lectures, seminars and visits. This knowledge is then used in design especially at a detailed level. A series of electives are offered in response to student demand. Of the 80 course titles held as the bank, about 40 are offered each year.

knowledge and skills to this end. The knowledge includes the principles and theories by which the attributes and performance of buildings may be understood and the technologies by which design criteria can be achieved. The skills include the techniques of designing and communication and their use in integrating the necessary knowledge in the design of buildings. Diploma in Architecture Course (RIBA Part 2) The objective of the two years Diploma in Architecture Course is: To produce a diplomate who has achieved an understanding of architectural theory and a reasonable standard of professional competence. After completing the Diploma in Architecture, students undertake the second year of practical training. At the same time they attend monthly in-School seminars which include the presentation of individual papers and forum discussion in preparation for RIBA Part 3.

Educational Policy The School enjoys a high reputation as running courses which have a strong base in design theory and history. The central discipline of the course is Design. The course aims to give students an awareness of the social and practical problems faced by an architect, and the skill and knowledge necessary for the solution of these problems in the design of buildings. In addition, students are encouraged to pursue their own particular interests in the form of elective and optional courses leading to a wider field of architecture.

Library The campus library is located next to the School and is specially stocked to serve the Schools located in the Knights Park centre. As well, students have access to all other campus libraries. Resources of the campus library include: 37,000 books, 488 periodical titles, 97,000 slides, 3,856 records, 700 video tapes, 94 study places.

Facilities and Resources As well as the library there is a good range of workshops, darkrooms and other support facilities. The School has excellent computing facilities.

Leeds Polytechnic Head of the School of Architecture and Landscape: Dr. P.F. Smith

Faculty of Design & the Environment Department of Architecture & Landscape Leeds Polytechnic Brunswick Terrace Leeds LS2 8BU United Kingdom

Telephone Enquiries: Leeds (0532)463231

The Department has origins in the School of Architecture of Leeds College of Art in which the first part-time classes in architecture were held in Leeds in 1903. Subsequently, in 1915 and 1929 respectively, successful students of the School were granted exemption from Part 1 and Part 2 examinations of the Royal Institute of British Architects. The Department of Architecture and Landscape is one of five departments in the Faculty of Design and the Environmment and is accommodated in the new Brunswick Terrace building where a wide range of degree and postgraduate courses concerned with the built environment is offered.

Architecture Course The Department of Architecture and Landscape offers two courses in architecture. The first leads to the award of a BA Honours Degree in Architecture and exemption from the Part 1 examination of the RIBA. The second course, the Graduate Diploma in Architecture, is intended for students who wish to pursue a professional career in architecture. The Diploma is recognised by the RIBA as a qualification for exemption from its Part 2 examination.

Diplomates may be candidates for the Part 3 (Professional Practice) examination of the RIBA if they have completed two years in architectural practice, one of which being postPart 2. The courses aim to lay the educational foundations for professional careers in Architecture. Organized to foster creative and intellectual ability, the courses lead to a design philosophy based on an understanding of the needs of man, society and the environment in a changing world and the organization of the skills necessary to fulfill and realise these needs in practice. An educational framework provides the base for experiencing, exploring and creating for complex needs, using imagination and inventiveness. Courses are based on a series of practical projects, which increase in complexity from first to final year, tuition and guidance being given by tutors and specialist staff. Most projects are carried out by individuals but group and team work on larger projects are a feature of the Established links with extra-mural social courses. organizations, specialist consultants and clients provide the background to schemes and their relationahip to current needs.. Modern managerial methods, techniques and equipment are also investigated and used in project

Educational Policy

Facilities and Resources

The School aims to provide an educational environment in which young people with logical and adaptive minds can prepare themselves to contribute to society, particularly with respect to the built environment. The BA course has an educational as distinct from a professional bias. It is design based, aims to develop skills and understanding needed to formulate and communicate design ideas, to study architecture, and to provide a foundation for professional development. The postgraduate diploma course aims to equip students to practice architecture in a changing world and has intensive professional application. The School believes that design and technical command are indivisible. Selfdirected study and an element of choice are important characteristics of this course. The part-time course is a combination of day release and block release. It provides a stimulating alternative to fulltime education and to foster the integration of academic and professional experiences. School/Practice links are fimly established.

Liverpool University School of Architecture and Building Engineering Liverpool University P.O. Box 147 Liverpool L69 3BX United Kingdom

Head of the School: Professor J.N. Tarn, Roscoe professor Telephone Enquiries:

The School was founded in 1895 as part of Liverpool University's School of Architecture and Allied Arts, one of the earliest university-based centres of design teaching in this country. A few years later it shared with the AA the distinction of having its degree recognised by the RIBA, giving for the first time the graduates of full-time courses exemption from Part 1 (and later Part 2) of the Royal Institute's Associateship examination. Since 1970 the School has been based in the Faculty of Social and Environmental Studies, a faculty which embraces economics, business studies, management, sociology and politics as well as the environmental subjects of geography, planning and architecture. The School of Architecture has also given birth to two closely-related University departments. A sub-department of Civic Design (as Planning has always been known at Liverpool) was founded within the School in 1910 and gained full departmental status in 1950. A sub-department of Building Science was instituted in 1957 in the Faculty of Engineering, though, since 1986 it has been reintegrated into the School, to form the new Department of Architecture and Building Engineering.

Architecture Course The role of the School is the education and training of undergraduate architects, builders and services engineers which is done through BA, BEng and BArch degree programmes. The BA (Architectural Studies) Degree The BA in Architectural Studies is a three-year classified honours degree, providing a pre-professional course in

051 709 6022 ext 2916

design and related academic studies. The School trys to strike a sensible balance in the first degree between studiobased design project work and the supporting lecture-based material. Design project work is undertaken in all three years and forms the central core of the degree. Examinable lecture courses are also offered in the following subject areas: building technology, environmental structures, engineering, history and theory of architecture, and urban studies. In addition, third year undergraduates present a BA Special Study, an individual piece of work in a tutored subject of their own selection. This requirement counts as a further single examination paper for degree classification purposes. The BArch Degree with Honours The BArch (Hons) course is of two years' duration, and comprises Design; main lecture courses in Construction and Practice, Management and Law; optional courses in Civic Design, Design and Technology, or History and Conservation; and Dissertation. These elements fall into two broad groupings, with the main lecture courses supporting Design project work, and the Dissertation normally constituting a development of themes emerging from option course work. The Design course and associated lecture courses proceed on the assumption that students will have worked largely in building teams during their Practical Training Year and gained some technical understanding of things only previously understood in theory. Students are therefore encouraged to be original and comprehensive in their designing once more, eventually to display a range of abilities in thesis projects embodying sound development

and well-detailed end products. Optional and Dissertation courses permit students to follow related interests in parallel, and to develop study skills appropriate to their graduate status. The principal objective of the course is to encourage the development of a spectrum of abilities, ranging from originality and technical competence in Design to familiarity with the disciplines of academic study and with sustaining written arguments in depth. These are seen as complementary; however, competence in architectural design has the larger weighting in assessments which contribute to final examinations.

Educational Policy The Liverpool School of Architecture has been educating students of architecture since the beginning of this century. It has a strong tradition of liberal yet radical attitudes to design and its approach now is that of a major provincial school, set in a great industrial city with a rich heritage of buildings, where social and economic problems give point to the development of strong attitudes to the contribution which designers can make to the built environment. So the course stresses social, historical and environmental issues in design. Students are encouraged to develop their own design personalities; they may come from any academic background so long as they are motivated and willing to be both educated and trained in the art and science of design. Design means in Liverpool, the widest possible interpretation of the subject and it is seen to embrace all aspects of buildability, which is a theme The course offers students throughout the School.

opportunities for personal initiative and a variety of options and special studies which enrich the core educational programme. Since the arrival of the new course in Building Technology and Management together with the existing course in Building Services, there is a growing amount of shared teaching.

Library The University Library is centrally located on two sites, the architecture collection includes: books 9,720, journals 3,960, microfilm and microfiche. The library has no video; but extensive video equipment and screening facilities are available through the Communication Studies Department. There is also a reference collection within the School including books, drawings, slides and microfiles.

Architectural Association, London Architectural Association School of Architecture 34-36 Bedford Square London WC1B 3ES United Kingdom

The Architectural Association is a combination of learned society, club and school of architecture. Its membership is made up principally of practising architects as well as teachers, students and representatives of the allied professions. The Architectural Association is the oldest school in Great Britain. There was, in fact, no formal education for architects when the AA's co-founders, Charles Gray and Robert Kerr came together to form the Association in 1847 proposing an improved system of voluntary and selfdirected architectural education. The School involves itself in a wide range of issues signalling the current preoccupations of staff and students. The unit system provides design options and technical tutoring in a context where differences in pedagogic style and personality are easily recognisable. Its structure includes the first year, the Intermediate school (second and third years), the Diploma school (fourth and fifth years), the Graduate school, the various service units, Extensions Studies, day release courses for practising professionals, as well as activities generated for the membership and general public including evening lecture programmes, an active exhibition programme and a wide range of publications. There is also a Foundation Course for those students who have no previous skills.

Architecture Course The first year introductory course, which consists of three design units, is followed by an Intermediate school of ten units. The Diploma school of eleven units is augmented by a fresh intake of mature students after the traditional

Chairman of the Architectural Association School of Architecture: Mr Alvin Boyarsky Telephone Enquiries: Registrar's Office 636 0974

year out. The first year offers an introductory course in architecture to respond to the wide variety of backgrounds and experience that students bring to the School. The AA has evolved a unit system that divides the first year into sub-groups. This not only provides a more intimate context for staff/student contact, but also allows divergent ideas about architecture and teaching to be pursued without compromise. The units are not exclusive: projects are often shared and students may move between units as their interest develop. The unit structure of the Intermediate school consisting of ten units, is planned to provide a wide diversity of approaches through which the students may acquire the skills and experience necessary to qualify for exemption from the RIBA Intermediate Examination. The organizational and budgetary autonomy of each unit allows students to attack particular problems and fields of interest in far greater depth than can be possible with a standardised year course involving large numbers of people. Students are not encouraged to remain in the same unit for the whole of the two year course. The Diploma school is organised to provide a two-year programme for post-Intermediate students, leading to RIBA Part 2 and the AA Diploma. Its intake is partially related to AA students from the Intermediate school to transfer students from various British schools and to the international network, including Extension Studies and graduate design students. The structure of the Diploma school includes a distribution of students among eleven units. The General Studies, Communications and Technical

Studies service units and the workshop act as consultants for the whole of the Association's educational activities, providing contacts and widening the scope of expertise and information available in addition to offering basic course work within their representative areas. Part 3 is the final examination in architecture. In addition to the examining process, there is an intensive seminar series. Eligibility for Part 3 is dependent on a pass or exemption from Parts 1 and 2 of the RIBA examinations and two years professional practice experience. The AA Graduate School offers programmes in Energy Studies, History and Theory Studies, and Housing Studies.

Educational Policy The Architectural Association is a constantly evolving institution where new ideas are germinated and expressed, which has educated many of the foremost practitioners, and has given the opportunity to teachers of every persuasion to work in an individualistic way. Its independence from State or academic control, at times fiercely fought for, and its structure, whereby each part of the School acts autonomously and by self-direction, sustain its continual success and renewal. From its founding, the AA has been involved with self-directed and independent education, and with architecture, not as the learning of technique or the

Library The AA library has over 23,000 volumes. Its subject specializations are architecture, planning and building construction; but the subject range is wide and includes art, design, landscape design and topography. The technical reference section contains over 3,000 periodical articles, pamphlets and trade catalogues arranged by Cl/SfB. British and foreign journal titles are held including 105 current periodicals. The reference library contains a box-file collection of 45,000 periodical articles on building types, architectural history and planning. In addition, there is a small collection of rare and early works and a particularly good selection of material from the nineteenth century. The slide library, which was begun in the 1890s, contains almost 70,000 slides.

Facilities and Resources The AA micro-computing system includes: six BBC Model B micro-computers; an Econet network System (allowing several computers to be used together); a printer

The Polytechnic of Central London School of Architecture Faculty of the Enviroment Polytechnic of Central London 35 Marylebone Road London NW1 SLS United Kingdom

The School of Architecture is a component of the Faculty of the Environment together with Building and Surveying, Civil Engineering and Transport, Planning and Estate Management. It is one of seven Schools which, in turn, form the Polytechnic of Central London. The Faculty of the Environment, which is housed in a purpose-built complex on Marylebone Road, contains, in addition to its five units, centres for Research, Graduate Studies and Continuing Education. The Architecture School has developed from the original Polytechnic School of Architecture which was formed from the Amalgamation of trade courses in 1880; the School gained recognition from the Royal Institute of British Architects with exemption from their Intermediate Examination in 1936. The BA (Architecture) Degree with Honours was first approved by the CNAA in 1970.

Architecture Course The courses have been developed to an architectural education of the highest quality. The emphasis of the curriculum is on the skills of three dimensional design related to a critique of the value systems of our society. Since there is no theoretical limit to the knowledge which has relevance to the practice of architecture, the specific fields of detailed study supporting the central

activity, design, are seen as filters through which knowledge of the world is made accessible to the task in hand. Degree Year 1 This aims to mediate between the shared knowlege and experience which students bring and the specific discipline to which they are being introduced. Degree Year 2 The intention is to consolidate and explore further the range of issues already introduced, within a context of increasing design skill. Degree Year 3 Students are expected to display the capacity for independent thought in the production of designs founded upon personally held convictions. Diploma Years 5-6 Students are required to mediate design ideology, technical opportunity and legal constraint; to pursue theoretical, historical or technical issues and develop coherent theses; to demonstrate design generated from theoretical proposition.

The Department of Environmental Design consists of two Schools: Architecture and Interior Design, and is situated within the Faculty of the Environment together with the Department of Geography. The School of Architecture and the School of Interior Design collaborate closely together and although the integrity of their respective disciplines is maintained, there is a substantial level of joint project and lecture work which has generated exciting educational opportunities, staff flexibility and economy of resources, as well as increased awareness and empathy in teaching objectives. Well equipped and staffed workshops and laboratories are located within the Department.

five year course.) The courses currently retain separate structures but share teaching programmes and lectures whenever practicable, and encourage the use of student peer teaching in order to maximise benefits inherent within the two modes. The student and staff specialisms available through the School of Interior Design form an important part of the work of the two architecture courses. The joint project work between the full-time and parttime degree and with the School of Interior Design has proved a tactically difficult but worthwhile development and now forms the main strength and character of the undergraduate courses in the Department.

The full-time course also links with the School of Interior Design for joint projects. The full-time diploma course pattern is well established. A series of major projects in the first year invites study of differrent aspects of advanced design and a programme of short option encourages self-direction. The bulk of the final year is devoted to the preparation of a design thesis, including a comprehensive design report, which at the School has always been a preferred option to an independent dissertation. This report includes not only an historical/theoretical component related to the chosen project, but strategic and tactical studies of different aspects of the design such as siting, environmental control, structures, services and building economics. The Diploma in Architecture Hons (part-time) follows a similar teaching pattern. However, in recognition of the students' continuing office based professional experience, course work focuses on philosophy, theory, art and scientific methodology in architectural design and planning. Professional Studies The Professional Studies course in architecture provides exemption from RIBA Part 3. The course comprises the G2 and G3 Programmes, the content of which follows closely RIBA Guidelines. G2, consisting of 20 lectures, supporting tutorials and a 3 hour unseen examination with permitted references, is taken by full-time students during the final year and by part-time students after part 2. The examination is set and assessed internally and the results confirmed by the Part 3 External Examiners. G3 consists of 12 months supervised and logged office experience, a case history, an optional 10 day short course and a 3 hour unseen examination, set and assessed by the External Examiners, who also conduct a viva with each candidate.

each term for supervision of the log book and case history, on which the staff prepare reports for the Examiners. Continuing Professional Development The School is currently increasing the number of Continuing Professional Development courses (CPD) it runs for up-dating practising architects. A range of topics, covering subjects like the Building Regulations or Building Economics as well as the more philosophical areas of Scale and Proportion or the Influence of Style, have been arranged through consultation with local architects and with architectural societies such as NETAS (North East Thames Architectural Society). Foundation and Introductory The School of Architecture also runs a British Council sponsored Foundation Course for overseas students who have an interest in pursuing an education in architecture or interior design, or any other profession allied to the In addition, there is a similar building industry. Foundation Course directed towards encouraging women (particularly in later life) to seek training and qualifications in architecture, interior design and/or building. Both these courses participate in the general activities of the School and are encouraged to join in the educational debates relating to architecture and interior design.

Educational Policy Apart from the ever-present concern to improve standards and accommodate new developments in fields such as information technology, the main thrust of Departmental policy is now centred on understanding the role of the School as a provider of educational experience appropriate to future architects. Despite years of debate and doubt in Schools of Architecture about the nature of their end

product, little serious study has been made of the traditional 5 year full-time model, with limited practical training additions, based on simulated office design practice. With its considerable experience of part-time education and consequential links with offices, its location, inter-disciplinary context and wide range of research, the PNL School of Architecture is well placed to explore the possibilities of mixed-mode education and the interrelationship of the academic programme, research and practical experience.

Library The main Polytechnic Library is located in the same building as the Department of Environmental Design and contains over 60,000 books. Of particular relevance to the School are the collections which cover Design (2000 volumes), Architecture (over 500), Architectural History (over 1800), Building (over 300), and other related subject areas. There is a normal reference collection of encyclopaedias, dictionaries and directories (including Barbour Index), and a special Counter Reference collection of over 300 textbooks. Further titles may be added temporarily to help with particular projects. The Library currently subscribes to nearly 100 journals in the field of Environmental Design. Most periodicals are bound and retained in the Library for retrospective use, and some of these span more than 30 years. A number of indexes and abstracts promote the use of the periodical collection. There is also an increasing collection of audiovisual media, including tapes, slides, film loops and video tapes (ordinary and interactive). Hardware available in the Library includes two colour video units, light-boxes and several projectors. The slide collection consists of 200 sets, indexed by architect, type of building, location, etc. and many tape/slide talks about architects and designers. The Department also has its own extensive technical information library of direct relevance to drawing board projects, and also has a separate slide library for the use of students and staff. Students in the School of Architecture have the advantage of having access to a large number of special resources in London libraries such as that of the Department of the Environment, public libraries such as Westminster (specialist collections of building and architecture), the Victoria and Albert Museum, British Museum, RIBA, the AA and other organizations, professional bodies and galleries. -

Facilities and Resources The School has recently acquired more space enabling the upgrading of accommodation, the provision of workshop facilities more appropriate to design students and the extension of the student technical resource base to include graphic and photographic facilities, printing equipment and two graphic terminals linked to the Polytechnic's mainframe computer.

North East London Polytechnic School of Architecture North East London Polytechnic Holbrook Road London E15 3EA United Kingdom

North East London Polytechnic (one of thirty polytechnics in England and Wales) is an institution of higher education which offers a wide range of advanced courses in the arts and sciences to about 7,000 students. The School of Architecture occupies its own building on the edge of the London Docklands Development and five miles from the City of London. Good bus, rail and underground links with the rest of London mean that the amenities of the capital are within easy reach. The School benefits from its East London location in two main ways: student accommodation is relatively cheap, while at the same time a large pool of practising architects is readily available as potential teachers and critics. The School enjoys all the resources of the Polytechnic, but has the closest link with the Department of Art and Design with which some teaching is shared. With about 250 students the School is small enough for teaching staff to know all students personally and it is the close tutorial relationship that is fostered that forms the backbone of the education. The School has a long tradition of welcoming overseas students and special courses are provided to improve both spoken and written fluency in English. The architecture courses are consciously modelled to prepare its graduates for practice anywhere in the world.

Architecture Course Design The teaching of architectural design in the first year of the BSc course serves as a foundation for what is to follow. It aims to give students from diverse backgrounds and differing levels of skill and experience a common ground of practical skills from which to develop talents they will need in the years ahead. In subsequent years, in both BSc and Diploma courses, the students are offered a choice of special interest Units, comprising ten or twenty students under the direction of two tutors. The work of the Units show great variety, and ranges from the exploration of the problem of spatial order in buildings through ideas expressed in the visual arts from the Renaissance onwards, to units that encourage students to develop their own architectural positions using briefs that range from the conceptual to the detailed and specific, and in which the field of reference is predominantly twentieth century, to units which devote themselves to examining the relationship between such things as thermal environment and building form. It is clear that in matters of design the School has no unitary preferences or ideological position. All the design staff are practising architects. Design teaching is supported by the teaching of technology and contextual studies.

Technology The overall aim of the Technology course is to provide the students with necessary factual data and experimental techniques to pursue their designs to beyond the point of feasibility to detailed implementation. The course develops over the five years and is divided in the usual way to cover structures, construction, services, environmental control, and computer literacy. Teaching is by means of lectures and seminars supported by individual tutorials.

principally by drawing and modelling, they are also developed by reading and writing. It is in this way the School provides not just a training but an education. It is often said that architecture is both an art and science. The School sees art as to do with the skill and imagination involved in making, while science is to do with not only factual data but more importantly experimental method. The unification of these skills is most fully expressed in what we call design.

Contextual Studies The overall aim of the Contextual Studies programme is to provide the student with a theoretical basis for their studio work, together with the necessary skills of analysis and expression for them to use their acquired knowledge and perceptions to advantage in design. The course content includes both architectural history and theory, and addresses aesthetic technological social and economic problems. Teaching is by means of lectures and seminars supported by individual tutorials.

Library

Educational Policy The teaching of Design is central to the course and the main aim of the School is to educate architects for practice anywhere in the world. It also aims to provide, at undergraduate level, an education for students who later choose to go on to other things. An architect's task is seen to be to identify human needs and aspirations and then to meet and express these in terms of space and form. To prepare the student for this task the education is divided into three aspects: Design, which is the central unifying discipline, and Technology and Contextual studies which support the central discipline of design. The method of teaching design is similar to that used in other architectural schools being project led and relying on individual tutorial supervision. At the same time, group work is encouraged, and students have a role in the criticism of each other's work. The architectural judgement and skill of a student is developed by examining, recording and analysing architectural propositions of his or her own, in the form of models and drawings. The skills of analysis and synthesis are seen to be complementary and, while developed

The School has access to all the libraries of the polytechnic: the School itself is directly served by its own Architectural Library of approximately 9,000 books, 20,000 slides, 1,000 large scale maps, videos and 75 periodicals are subscribed to. There is a technical library which is regularly updated and supported by the RIBA office library service.

Facilities and Resources Facilities and resources reflect the fact that the School is oriented towards the teaching of design, rather than technical research. The emphasis is on equipment that students can use on a daily basis to further their own designs. There is a fully equipped workshop for furniture and model making, an environmental workshop with artificial sky and other instruments. There are also computing facilities, cameras for loan, and a darkroom. The School has access to all the facilities of the Department of Art and Design and the rest of the polytechnic. There is a canteen on the premises. Each student group is based in its own naturally lighted and ventilated studio, but more formal teaching takes place in other lecture and seminar rooms in the building.

Polytechnic of the South Bank, London Department of Architecture Faculty of the Built Environment Polytechnic of the South Bank Wandsworth Road London SW8 2JZ United Kingdom

The Faculty of the Built Environment consists of the Departments of Architecture, Building Administration, Building Economics, Civil and Structural Engineering, Estate Management and Town Planning. It is unique among centres of higher education in Europe in that it includes courses at degree level in all the professional areas contributing to the built environment, from Town Planning at one end of the spectrum to Civil Engineering at the other. This span of activity is demonstrated, for example, in the inter-departmental schemes and projects which are a feature of most of the courses and the interdisciplinary contributions of members of staff.

Architecture Course The work in the first three years of the full-time course and the first four years of the part-time course explores the nature of architecture in relation to the human, social,

historical, scientific and technological factors of its time, and develops an understanding of the design process through design project work. These courses provide the academic base from which the student proceeds to the professional study of architecture. Both courses give exemption from the RIBA Part I examinations. The final three years of the full-time and the part-time courses concentrate on the architect's principal tasks and offer opportunities for diversification and for interaction with other professionals in the buit environment team. In the case of the full-time course the first year at this stage is spent in supervised professional attachment. Both these courses give exemption from the RIBA Part 2 examinations. A course of study in Architectural Professional Practice leads to the Polytechnic's own examination and gives exemption from the RIBA Part 3 examinations.

Educational Policy Society needs architects and designers committed to environmental improvement as a means of bettering the lives of people who live in and with buildings. In order to be useful to society the architect and designer has to be alive to the human purpose and consequences of his work and, more generally, to the nature of the philosophical, scientific, economic and technical principles that determine the shape of the built environment. The Department offers the opportunity of pursuing these aims through full-time and part-time courses of study. The Department has strong links with a variety of schools of architecture in Europe and the USA with which it arranges staff and student exchanges. The unique nature of the Faculty of The Built Environment, which offers courses in all the disciplines contributing to the built environment, enables the students throughout their course of study to relate their development to that of their colleagues in the other disciplines. Interdisciplinary faculty projects help to reinforce thicr growing awareness of the building team and lay the foundation for a responsible mode of operation in their future professional life which takes full account of the complementary nature of the various built environment professions.

Library The library is a facility of the Faculty of The Built Environment. There is a large collection of books, serials, slides and videotapes.

Facilities and Resources The Faculty possesses civil and structural engineering laboratories containing the most advanced equipment and environmental science laboratories of a very high standard. Specialist facilities include a wind tunnel, laboratories for material science and environmental physics, art workshop

University College, London Bartlett School of Architecture and Planning University College London 22 Gordon Street London WC1H OQB United Kingdom

University College University College, the oldest and largest College of the University of London, has a long and distinguished record of academic excellence and innovation which began with its foundation in 1826. The basic principle behind the foundation of UCL was that higher education in a far broader sense than existed elsewhere at the time should be available to all who could profit by it regardless of race, religion, class or sex. Today the College has over 6,600 students of whom 1,700 are postgraduates in the seven Faculities of Arts, Laws, Science, Engineering, Medical Sciences, Clinical Sciences and Environmental Studies. It is located in Bloomsbury, central London, close to the British Library, the British Architectural Library, national archives, major art galleries, professional institutes and other centres of academic, cultural and social interest. The Bartlett School Architecture was first taught at University College in 1841, Town Planning in 1914. It is the only place in Great Britain where Architecture, Building and Planning

are combined in a single department. Thus the spread of activities at the Bartlett is unusually wide, ranging from policy planning through development planning, urban and countryside planning to architecture, history of architecture, environmental design and engineering, and building.

Architecture Course The BSc in Architecture, Planning, Building and Environmental Studies provides a broad academic education for students with an interest in the man-made environment. The three year undergraduate programme, leading to an honours degree, is organised by course units. This enables the School to make a variety of responses to the interests of students. The course falls into the following broad groups: architectural design, building technology and management, environmental design and engineering, history of architecture, and planning studies. Students may follow one specific option for example, architecture, planning studies or building with a range of electives, or use the degree as a liberal environmental education. Successful

of architecture and society. The Production of the Built Environment The political economy of urban development. The course considers land, labour and capital in construction, in relation to the state, technologies of production, capital accumulation and urban change. Urban Development Studies Studies the theory and methodology of urban planning within the comparative context of the process of change in the developing countries. A new course in light and lighting. The School also provides superivision and seminars and an examination at the conclusion of practical training which gives exemption from RIBA Part 3 examination. -

Educational Policy It remains one of the School's primary aims to educate architects within the broader compass of environmental studies as a whole. A range of elective courses is maintained in the undergraduate school which makes possible a number of routes through it. The School is able, therefore to offer undergraduate entrants options in planning, building or non-professionally aligned environmental studies as well as in architecture. The School has adopted a strategy to reduce the emphasis on subject teaching without losing the important central body-of-knowledge approach which has become the Bartlett hallmark of scholarship. Core teaching has been concentrated around application to the object the building or group of buildings as artefacts. The Core Course system, linked to the flexibility of a wide range of electives encourages richness within the course structure. -

Library The Environmental Studies section of the College Library is separately housed in Wates House. There are 14,000 volumes covering all the School's interests. There is a linked ad hoc collection of slides.

Facilities and Resources The School has a number of specialized environmental engineering laboratories (artificial sky, artificial sun, etc.), audio-visual facilities, and an increasing repertory of computing equipment (also linked to the substantial College provision).

Manchester Polytechnic Department of Architecture and Landscape Faculty of Art and Design Manchester Polytechnic Loxford Tower Lower Chatham Street All Saints Manchester M15 511A United Kingdom

Head of the Department of Architecture and Landscape: Mr Raymond Burton

The teaching of architecture in Manchester can be traced to the early years of this century in the College of Art which became the Faculty of Art and Design on the formation of the Polytechnic in 1970. The present Department of Architecture and Landscape is part of the Faculty and is situated close to the centre of the city of Manchester adjacent to the Royal Northern College of Music and close to the main University of Manchester central buildings.

Management, Planning and Landscape, History and Theory, Humanities, Processes and Skills. Over two thirds of the course is design based project work with an integrated programme of lectures and seminars occupying the remaining third. All fields have mandatory and elective elements the time spent in electives increasing as the course proceeds. Electives allow the development of personal preferences and provide an opportunity for working with students from other years and from other disciplines within Art and Design. In contrast to the majority of Schools of Architecture the practice year is an integral part of the course, taken in the third year, and is used for the study of management and process skills in the building industry. Students return to the school for short periods of study during the year and are visited by staff in their offices. The BA (Hons) in Architecture gives exemption from the RIBA Part I examination.

Architecture Course BA (Hons) in Architecture The undergraduate course in architecture is a four year sandwich course comprising two years of full time study, a third year spent in professional practice and a final full time year leading to the award of the BA(Hons) degree which provides exemption from RIBA Part 1. The course aims to provide the broad knowledge base from abstract principles to practical application whilst recognising and developing the potential for growth of each student. This is reflected in course content and method; fields studied are the Technologies of Construction and Environmental Science, Practice and

from the RIBA Part 2 examination. In the graduate diploma course the student, now with sufficient understanding of the whole field of building, should be adequately prepared to study through advanced design projects the full implications of his or her responsibility to the community. Each student is encouraged to organize the two years' activities in the way most appropriate to developing his or her main architectural interest. The two years therefore include, together with the major comprehensive design project which occupies most of the second year, specialist design options such as urban design and conservation, interior design/environmental science, and computer aided design. These personal studies allow students to build on the strengths of the Faculty and the Polytechnic. Professional Practice, RIBA Part 3 After a further year of professional experience, the graduate may return for the short courses which the department provides in preparation for the Part 3 RIBA examination.

Educational Policy Whilst providing a sound vocational education with links with the local profession, the architecture courses capitalise on two distinguishing characteristics. Firstly the location of the Department within the Faculty of Art and Design and secondly the Landscape Design course within the same Department. Emphasis is placed upon basic design as a common element, the use of three dimensional models as design tools, interdisciplinary group working and the provision for secondment to other Departments for specified parts of

Director of the School of Architecture: R.J. Stonehouse. Telephone Enquiries: 061 273 3333

The School of Architecture which is located within the Faculty of Arts gives weight to cultural and human values, while maintaining close and mutually productive associations with the science-based Departments of Building and Civil Engineering in the Faculties of Technology and Science and the Department of Town and Country Planning. There are about 200 students in the five academic years of the School and about 70 undergoing professional training in the two practical training years. In addition to the academic staff in the School there are visiting tutors from other departments and a continuous programme of distinguished visitors from outside the University teaching within its Department.

Architecture Course The three year undergraduate course leads to the BA degree with Honours in Architecture, and a further two year course leads to the BArch degree, for which Distinctions may be awarded. The five years of academic study, together with the mandatory two years of supervised professional training in offices and the School's examination in Professional Practice and Experience are recognised by the Architects' Registration Council of the United Kingdom and the Royal Institute of British Architects. The three year BA(Hons) course aims at the development of an understanding of the theoretical and practical nature of design in architecture and the establishment of a foundation for the practice of architecture. The theory and practice of architecture are regarded as complementary

components of the course. Approximately two-thirds of the students' time is spent in the studio on design exercises which increase in complexity with the expanding knowledge and growing perceptiveness of the student. Various group and tutorial methods of learning are used in studio-working and a wide range of graphical and other techniques are employed in the exploration and practice of design. Theoretical material, broadly grouped in the construction of built form, environmental control, and theoretical and historical studies, is presented in the form of lectures, seminars, study visits and tutorials, supported by demonstrations and exercises. On the completion of the BA(Hons) course students undertake the first twelve month period of structured professional training in approved offices, under the direction of the School. During this period the student returns to the School for various seminars. This first period of professional training provides an introduction to practice; an opportunity for the development and application of matters introduced during the BA(Hons) course; and the opportunity for preparation for the BArch course. The two year BArch course comprises advanced studies in the fields of building performance design, conservation design, urban design, and theory; elective studies in special subjects; the preparation of a dissertation on a selected topic; the preparation of a major design project, involving a special study; and studies in professional practice. Approximately two-thirds of the course is concerned with topics and subjects selected by the individual student in the elective study, the dissertation and the major design. Subjects for the major design can normally be identified

within the areas of urban design, building performance design or conservation design. On the completion of the BArch degree the student undertakes the final twelve months of professional training leading to the short but intensive Graduate Management Course and the Schools Examination in Professional Practice and Experience. On the satisfactory completion of this examination the student is eligible for statutory registration as an architect and corporate membership of the RIBA. Assessment and Teaching All the practical studio work is subject to continuous assessment as well as end of session exmainations by the University's external examiners. Theoretical subjects are assessed by both conventional written examinations and course work. Close contact between students and staff is a characteristic of the School's work and much of this is centred on seminars, tutorials and informal "over the drawing board' discussion of work in progress.

Educational Policy The School of Architecture is concerned with the professional study of architecture as an art and as a practical activity in a changing social, economic and technological environment. The courses are devised to provide opportunity for the development of individual potential in architecture against a background of all-round achievement across the whole spectrum of architectural education.

University of Newcastle upon Tyne School of Architecture The University Newcastle Upon Tyne NE1 7RU United Kingdom

Head of the School of Architecture: Professor Ben Farmer Telephone Enquiries: 091 2328511 ext 2004

Architecture has been studied at Newcastle since 1837 with the RIBA giving the School full recongition in 1931 and with the first Chair of Architecture being established in 1947. The School has a history and reputation of which it is proud and a most important regional location south of a line between Glasgow and Edinburgh and north of a line between Liverpool and Hull, it is the only School of Architecture. It has, therefore, an important regional role to play. Traditionally the School's roots were in local practice and this tradition continues in many ways. Several fulltime staff are in practice, the Project Office is a practice in School, practising architects are employed as part-time teachers, there is a Friends of the School scheme by which all students in Years 1, 2 and 3 are adopted by local architectural firms and from which the School draws advice, expertise and help during appraisal of students' work. In parallel there has been a long traditional of scholarship and research. Newcastle has for many years had a reputation as a good all-round School. Within the University the School has working links with its sister Schools within the Sub-Faculty (Town and Country Planning and Fine Art), service teaching links with Archaeology, Child Health, Civil Engineering, Education, Geography, Law, Social Studies and Surveying, and research links with Mechanical and Chemical Engineering in the field of energy.

External to the University the School has working links with the College of Art and Technology, the Polytechnic of Newcastle upon Tyne (these are important links and enable us to cover parts of our syllabus where we lack subject expertise and for which we make teaching contributions in return) and the Architecture Workshop.

Architecture Course BA Course This aims to produce graduates who have read Architecture, are culturally and socially aware, have demonstrated scholarship, aptitude for design and ability to identify, set up and work through major projects, and who are sensibly prepared to take advantage of their first year of practical training. Year 1 aims to introduce students to the nature of architecture, to architectural concerns and to designing. Communication/graphic skills are fostered and through the progressively more complex design projects the students finish the year by designing a small building which demonstrates space handling, resolution of form and an appreciation of structure and materials. Year 2 aims to consolidate the knowledge and skills gained in 1st Year and to prepare for the challenge of 3rd Year. The main objectives are to illustrate that design is indivisible, to provide an opportunity for a thorough exploration of design images in a variety of contexts and to improve each student's integrative designing ability.

Year 3 aims to enable the student to demonstrate (a) a reasonably comprehensive understanding of the subject at an abstract and concrete level; (b) that he/she has begun to develop a coherent design philosophy; (c) that he/she has acquired the technical facility to resolve a variety of small to medium scale architectural design problems. BArch Course This has a high degree of choice of time and subject of study. Its structure is moving towards modularization with the prospect of practitioners being able to join it periodically for CPD purposes. The raison d'ëtre of this course is the making of a graduating architect with a high level of intellectual and personal creative development. Years 4 and 5 form a package within which the students can choose the order in which they study and offer project work. The Course sets out to build on the first degree course and the year of practical experience and to prepare students for a career in our profession. Mandatory experiences are: (a) a design project to explore the influences of chosen technical criteria; (b) an urban design project to investigate methods and concepts of urban design and town planning; (c) a design project to explore the nature of landscape design; (d) an elected topic; (e) all 4th Year students will work in parallel on a project with a Polytechnic QS student in term; (1) a major Dissertation (historical, scientific or theoretical); (g) a major Design Thesis.

Educational Policy The School is committed to the belief that design is

indivisible and cannot be divorced from technology, physical context and cultural appropriateness; to that end teaching is above all concentric. Design is the centre of teaching throughout the course. There is no commitment to a single ideological approach and students are not stylistically strait-jacketed. Scholarship is prized. The BA and BArch courses are liberal and student orientated with a high degree of controlled choice and, notwithstanding the vocational nature of the courses, graduates are educated young men and women.

Library The School has a departmental Seminar Library and a Technical Reference Library (with Materials Section). The Seminar Library has 9,000 books. It also houses the Cl/SfB collection, BA and BArch dissertations, 90 periodicals, and maps. The Technical Reference Library consists of technical data and abstracts, trade literature, 19,000 slides and 9 videos.

Facilities and Resources There is a fully equipped Building Science Laboratory, a mobile laboratory and a Building Science Yard which works in conjunction with the workshop.

Head of the Department of Architecture: Professor Christopher Riley Telephone Enquiries: 0602-506101 ext 2384

The School of Architecture traces its origins back to 1843. It moved from the College of Art in the 1960s to the University of Nottingham where it is now one of the ten departments in the Faculty of Law and Social Sciences. The Department is located on the University campus which is about 3 miles west of the city centre. The modem 330 acre campus forms part of an extensive green belt of woodland, parks and playing fields that separate the city from the suburb of Beeston.

Architecture Course The Three Year Degree of Bachelor of Arts with Honours in Architecture and Environmental Design The course provides a basic education for those who wish to become architects. The central discipline of architecture is the designing of buildings and the course centres around the teaching of problem solving by the architect on behalf of society. The subject of study are grouped in all years as follows: Project Work; dealing with the basic skills required to design and construct buildings. Building Technology; structural design, building materials and the principles of construction.

Environmental Science; artificial and natural lighting, heating, ventilating, building services generally and the problems of noise and acoustic design. History and the Social Context of Buildings town planning, design method and the process of designing. Building Economics and Professional Management; legal and contractual matters. Year 1: project work in basic design and communication, construction, structures, environmental science, history and appreciation of design, design method. Year 2: project work in small building design problems, construction, structures, environmental science, history and design method. During the year students may make a visit possibly overseas, for the purpose of historical and urban studies. Year 3: project work in medium size building design, the siting, landscaping and grouping of buildings, construction, structures, environmental science, history. Increasing emphasis will be placed upon integrated design involving the constructional and environmental factors in design. There may be a field visit. After Year 3 students are required to undertake a year of practical training in an architect's office, and during this period they apply to enter the BArch course. Students who have obtained their first degree with Honours at a good standard are considered for entry.

The Two Year Degree of Bachelor of Architecture Year 4: advanced project work usually with special reference to urban design and conservation area problems, advanced environmental and constructional problems and the integration of service engineering, urban history, building economics and professional matters. The student commences a dissertation on a subject of his own choice. There may be a visit, possibly overseas, for the purpose of historical and urban studies during the year. Year 5: project work; a personal building project is selected for detailed study. A dissertation upon a subject associated with architecture is prepared during the BArch course. Following Year 5 the student is expected to undertake his second year of practical training, before sitting the Part 3 examination in Professional Practice.

Educational Policy Emphasis is palced on becoming an architect and a master builder. The Department follows the usual architectural practice of teaching design through project work, but it lays special stress upon the integration of technology into design, coupled with management training.

Library In addition to the facilities of the Main and Science Libraries of the University, the Department has its own Architecture Library and Technical Library (6,000+ books) and slide collection.

The Department began as the Oxford School of Architecture in 1928, which became a recognised school in 1937. It is now part of the Faculty of Architecture, Planning and Estate Management which is notable for the friendliness of its staff and for interdepartmental cooperation. Most of the Department's staff are engaged in practice or research. The City of Oxford, the historic centre of which is within walking distance, is itself one of the Department's main teaching tools, offering on the one hand supreme historical examples from almost all periods, and on the other, real and typical present-day problems of every kind. At the same time, however, the Department's concerns at graduate and research level reach out to an international horizon.

Architecture Course BA Honours in Architectural Studies The three year BA Honours in Architectural Studies is recognised for exemption from Part I of the RIBA examination. The BA Honours graduate with a good degree has a range of choice of further study within the Faculty. Those wishing to follow the vocational route into architecture as a profession may apply for entry into the Graduate Diploma Course in Architecture, usually after one year in practical training. Alternatively, a change to

Planning can be made at this stage. The course is built around studio project work, which constantly varies in texture as emphases change. These emphases come from different directions. At first there is the need for the student to develop his or her perception and capacity to visualise in three dimensions; also to acquire the drawing, model-making and other skills necessary to communicate the outcome of these capacities to others. Project work begins by reflecting these emphases but from the start the student is designing. As the first year progresses, the relevance of parallel lecture courses and seminars begins to be evident, and this becomes most explicit in the second year. The courses in history and philosophy, the anthropology of shelter, social sciences and environmental technology are seen as contributing to the understanding which is the first necessity for good, appropriate design. Along with structures and construction, some are also the tools for working it out, and towards the end of the second year and into the third there is an increased emphasis on developing the ability to implement design. However, these are strictly emphases rather than distinct phases; one object of the course is to keep the student aware that all these considerations operate simultaneously. A further factor is the desirability of exploring a wide range of problems in the form of different building types; and, while overall

there is gradually increasing complexity in the project work, this is not an over riding factor, and a relatively simple problem may be returned to, but in greater depth. In all three years of the course there are some projects and other studies in which students are given a choice (sometimes a free choice) of subject. In the last four terms of the course students may choose from a number of options a subject of personal interest for pursuit in depth. Graduate Diploma in Architecture The framework of the two year Graduate Diploma in Architecture course has two major aspects: Course Areas: There are fifteen fields of study, from which the subject-matter of the individual student's course is chosen. Components: The student's personal programme will involve course area work in four types of study; design projects, major study, seminars and lectures. Through these means the course has great flexibility and can be varied in character for students with differing needs. It does not attempt to present a simple architectural order because such an order no longer obtains; instead it relies on the responsible use of individual and unique student abilities and interests to further the education of each student and to contribute to a general debate. At the beginning of the course each student is asked to prepare under guidance an individual programme of study for the two years. The relative importance, within the 60week course, of any single element of student work is allowed for by a mark weighting, which relates the

element to course-time spent on it. Professional Qualification and Registration After gaining the award of the Diploma in Architecture, the student must spend a further year in practical training (under the supervision of the Department) before sitting for the Examination in Practice and Management. This examination gives exemption from Part 3 of the RIBA Examination in Architecture; it qualifies for election as a member of the RIBA and admits to the Register of Architects maintained by the Architects' Registration Council of the United Kingdom. The examination is usually taken in November of the year following the completion of the Graduate Diploma Course and is preceded by preparatory lectures and seminars arranged on a part-time basis.

Educational Policy Through the study of architectural design and all its attendant disciplines, the BA Honours course aims to produce a graduate who is a perceptive, responsible and effective person; and (if intending to enter architecture as a profession) is equipped with the necessary skills and understanding for further architectural education in depth. The aim of the Graduate Diploma in Architecture course is to extend the knowledge, understanding and skills which students have developed in first degree courses, through extending students' personal approaches to design; through study in specialised areas of architecture of their choice; and by ensuring competence in fundamental areas.

The School was founded in 1930, recognised by the RIBA in 1960. It was reorganised in 1967 under its present Head, Professor Geoffrey Broadbent, who has built up a multi-disciplinary staff who work together as teaching teams in the various stages of the course. The School has no particular ideological bias but the activity of design is seen as the discipline, which integrates all the theoretical studies. The core of the course is project work which occupies some 60% of the total time. The School is housed in three upper floors of a modern seven-storey building near the Guildhall Square in Portsmouth. Ground floor lecture theatres and common rooms are shared with the Department of Biological Sciences which occupies the other three floors.

Architecture Course

Context of Design. The central discipline is Architectural Design. Support is drawn from Design Science which deals with the fabric of the building in terms of Structures, Environmental Science, Constructional Design and the Mathematics of Design and from Context of Design which includes Urban Geography, Philosophy, Psychology, Sociology and the History of Architecture. The three areas are abstract divisions which are fused in the projects themselves as the year proceeds. Each area includes a theoretical input in the form of lectures, handouts, tutorials and projects. After the award of the Honours Degree which is accepted for recognition by the RIBA, which gains exemption from Part 1, students are equipped to enter the next phase of their studies, a year of professional practice which is usually taken in an architects office. Diploma in Architecture The Diploma Course is of two years duration and comprises Years 5 and 6 in the School. To gain the Diploma in Architecture, the student is required to pass in a Major Study, in three Minor Studies, and in Professional Studies. The major and minor studies comprise Special Studies within particular tutorial groups, a written dissertation, and Building Design. One of these must be

Educational Policy At its very roots, architecture can be defined as a designed response to mans basic need for shelter but the architect's role in satisfying this need can be very wide ranging indeed. The problems to solve change constantly in emphasis. The Portsmouth School tries to meet this situation in the education of its students in three main ways. Firstly, they must be resourceful, equipped to respond to changing conditions in the future. Staff try to equip them therefore with a liberal education on which may be based the sound judgement that society expects of its professionals. skilled and Secondly, they must be designers: imaginative, well versed in the theory, techniques and practice of design. Thirdly, of course, they must possess the knowledge, the grasp of principles necessary to design well-planned, structurally sound, competently detailed, economic, comfortable and sympathetic buildings.

Library The Polytechnic main library, located in Ravelin Park, is the Frewen Library. Its stock of materials for study, teaching and research, now more than 400,000 volumes, is among the largest in the United Kingdom public sector institutions. Some 3,000 current journals are received and there are developing collections in other media. The Library provides a wide range of services, including subject and tutorial assistance by specialist staff in all

Publications include library and areas of study. information guides, catalogues and accessions lists. The School of Architecture has its own library and reading room where a large number of specialist works and periodicals are available for loan and reference. Reading room facilities in quiet surroundings are a feature of the School. Bound volumes containing past dissertations and projects are available and provide a valuable area of consultation and study. The Architecture Slide Library at present consists of approximately 7,500 slides.

Facilities and Resources The accommodation for architecture includes studios with a drawing table, a reference table and a locker for each student; lecture rooms, seminar spaces, staff tutorial rooms, an audio-visual room and a reprographic suite with xerox, dyeline printing, microfilm and photographic facilities. A well-equipped environmental science laboratory includes an artificial sky and heliodon, thermal assessment equipment, equipment for measuring dust and vapour, and a range of sound measuring equipment. Use is also made of the nearby Department of Physics facilities with an anechoic room and reverberation chamber. The structures laboratory includes facilities for the modelling of structures using strain measuring techniques. A study of the wind flow around buildings may also be made. The School has a computer suite with a range of microcomputers, including Commodore, Acorn and Apple systems. The devices linked to these computers include an A3 plotter, graphics tablets, printers and teletype. Workshop facilities consisting of a general purpose metal/woodworking unit is situated close by the School.

The Department of Architecture occupies the top floors of the 20-storey Arts Tower located on the campus of the University of Sheffield.

Architecture Course The undergraduate course is full-time and of three years duration leading to the degree of BA. At the end of the second year it is possible to take an optional route and obtain a degree which does not give exemption from RIBA Part 1. The conventional route following the first degree is for one year in practice followed by two years full-time study in the School. Alternatively, a student may enter a combined university/practice period of two years followed by one full-time year. A diploma is awarded giving exemption from Part 2 of the RIBA examination. During a year of practical training following the diploma, students attend a short course in Professional Practice and Management before completing the final Part 3 examination.

Educational Policy The development of a vocabulary of architectural design for each student is a fundamental objective of the School's Part I course. This course is concerned with laying the foundations of the education system for the architect. It aims to provide a theoretical base, especially related to the development of design skills, and to impart the necessary principles of technological and environmental knowledge. The objectives of the Part 2 course can be summarized as placing the emphasis on professionalism with particular reference to architectural design. There is concentration on the relevant techniques necessary to achieve the ultimate objective, that of achieving creative and technical excellence underpinned by the necessary management support skills.

Library Students and staff have access to the following libraries: (a)Architecture and Building Science Library containing 6,025 books and pamphlets on architecture, including historical theoretical and technical subjects; runs of 94 architectural, planning and building science periodicals. (b)University Library containing about 4,000 books on architecture centred on historical and theoretical subjects; runs of selected architectural periodicals in the historical field.

Scott Sutherland School of Architecture Robert Gordon's Institute of Technology Garthdee Road Aberdeen AB9 2QB Scotland United Kingdom

Telephone Enquiries: Aberdeen (0224) 313247

The Scott Sutherland School of Archtiecture is one of 15 Schools within Robert Gordon's Institute of Technology which is the largest of the Scottish Central Institutions. The School, which has had recognition from the Royal Institute of British Architects since 1914, has, over the years, developed courses in Architecture, Advanced Architectural Studies, Planning and Urban Design. Mid-Career courses are organized in various fields such as Applications of Computers to Architectural Design, Professional Practice, and Conservation. The School enjoys excellent resources and the amenities of a beautiful river-side campus which it shares with Gray's School of Art and the School of Surveying.

Architecture Course BSc Honours in Architecture The BSc Honours in Architecture is a four year full-time course which gives exemption from the RIBA Part 1 examination. Critical elements in the learning experience are design exercises and project work. In these, students work

individually and occasionally in groups in the laboratories, workshops and studios. Laboratory equipment such as the wind tunnel, the controlled atmosphere laboratory, the heliodon and the artificial sky may be used to simulate environmental conditions relative to particular design projects. In the workshop, students gain hands-on experience of fabricating components and models starting with a small artifact in First Year. From First to Fourth Year, tutored studio-based design activity progressively dominates over formal instruction. Students' progress is measured by a comprehensive system of formal examination coupled with continuous assessments throughout the course. Diploma in Advanced Architectural Studies The course leading to the award of Diploma in Advanced Architectural Studies consists of one year of practical training in an architects' office followed by one year of fulltime academic course work. During the one year of practical training the student is supervised and follows an agreed programme of field work in preparation

for the Dissertation which will be completed during the following year. A draft of the written dissertation must be submitted at the beginning of the second year. The course is designed to permit candidates who have taken a Degree in Architecture, normally at Honours level, to study in-depth subjects related to building design, land use and development, town planning and contextual studies and professional practice. It is also an essential pre-requisite of entry into the Second year of the Diploma Course that a written dissertation of 12000-15000 words be submitted in draft at the beginning of the Session. Design Project Work in the course concentrates on buildings which have complex planning and/or contextual problems or which set particular technological demands. Students are expected to apply the knowledge gained from the special studies in the Honours Degree. There are five main streams of activity in the Programme of Work. The design of a building major design project. A course of lectures/tutorials in subjects related to professional practice and leading to the G2 examination. An essay of 4,000-5,000 words which is an integral part of the G2 examination in professional practice. Minor design projects to be undertaken individually. Completion of written dissertation. Upon successful completion of the Diploma Course students are eligible for exemption from the Part 2 Examination of the RIBA. -

Educational Policy Emphasis is placed on a disciplined approach to design,

aimed at providing the optimum functional performance for a building, combining visual quality with economy of means, while satisfying the contextual demands of the existing rural or urban fabric in which it is placed. From the study of the first principles of construction, structure and building performance and from early exercises in visual training, students gain experience and pleasure in developing a grammar of built form. They are trained to recongise and produce the aesthetic quality and balance which design requires. The programme throughout the four year undergraduate course involves a systematic consideration of an extensive range of scales of buildings, materials and components which, with a good understanding of theory, enables students to design with more confidence. In addition, the course educates the student to coordinate the building within its physical and social environment and within existing economic, climatic, geographical and ecological conditions.

Library The Departmental Library contain 10,00 books, 180 periodicals, 20,000 slides and 200 video-tres.

Facilities and Resources Among the facilities of the School are: controlled atmosphere laboratory; wind tunnel; artificial sky; mainframe and personal computers with a full range of equipment and software including colour graphics.

Educational Policy The single most important aim of the course is to create an understanding of human needs through realistic application and analysis of the requirements of the building user. This is done in the belief that it will lead to a socially successful end-product in terms of both its visual and its three-dimensional qualities. It is considered essential that the studies of architectural students become increasingly based in the community at all levels so that they, as individuals, realistically understand and interpret the needs of a constantly changing society which can be effectively answered by the professional and practical architect.

Library and Visual Communications Facilities The College of Art Library is housed within the same building as the School of Architecture. It contains a stock of some 40,600 volumes covering aspects of all subjects taught in the College and subscribers to over 190 periodicals. The Library subscribes to the RIBA Office Library Service which offers a comprehensive coverage of trade literature and technical data for architects. A comprehensive collection of some 35,000 35 mm slides is available for lecture purposes. An expanding Audio Visual collection comprising audio tapes, tape slides and video cassettes is available for use in the Library and for lectures.

Heriot-Watt University, Edinburgh Department of Architecture Edinburgh College of Art Heriot-Watt University Lauriston Place Edinburgh E113 9DF Scotland United Kingdom

Head of the Department of Architecture:

Architecture has been taught in the Edinburgh College of Art since its foundation in 1908. Links developed through service teaching with both the Heriot-Watt College and Edinburgh University, and in 1968 the School of Architecture, together with the School of Town & Country Planning, became joint Departments of the recently created Heriot-Watt University forming the Faculty of Environmental Studies. There is now also a Department of Landscape. The Department is therefore a joint Department of Henot-Watt University and the Edinburgh College of Art and is one of the oldest schools of architecture in Britain located on a spectacular central site overlooking the Castle. No other School of Architecture in Britain provides this unique combination of a highly technological University and a College of Art where drawing and painting, sculpture, design and crafts are so closely linked. The city of Edinburgh, in which it is located, is a living demonstration of the advantages of good architecture and planning. It is the centre of the architectural profession in Scotland and there are incomparable research and reference facilities in its many libraries, museums and archives.

years are devoted to fostering a steady growth in knowledge which will lead towards the acquisition of a comprehensive approach to the design of buildings. In the fifth year, students have the opportunity of exploring in depth a subject connected with architecture which is of special interest to them.

Through studio teaching and group discussion students are introduced to a range of design methods, theories and precedents, and are encouraged both to expand their architectural horizons and to improve and broaden their range of presentation techniques. 3rd Year the general aim is to develop further the scientific, craft and creative aspects of the design of buildings. In the design projects there is emphasis on cultural and social factors, and on the integration and evaluation of architectural theory, building construction and environment. 4th Year the aim is both to re-engage students, in the first term after their year out, in a broad architectural design programme and to encourage them in the later terms to tap the Department's most expert teaching resources by a variety of optional courses. The optional courses, most of which are project-based, include design programmes on specific themes as well as energy conscious design, urban design and housing, conservation and rehabilitation,

Architecture Course The architecture course consists of two parts. Three years of full-time study in either the BSc (SocSc) or MA (Hons) course is followed by one year of professional experience. The MA (Hons) students then return to complete Year 5, their final Honours year. Students who have passed all the courses in the first three years of the normal curriculum for MA Honours in Architecture and who have undergone a period of twelve months in approved practical training may enrol in the Diploma in Architecture. The period of study is two academic years, full-time. Students who hold the degree of MA with Honours in Architecture are exempt from the first year of the Diploma course. The tactical aims of each academic year of the courses are: 1st Year the overall aim is to develop inherent aptitudes for architectural design.

computer-aided design and architectural history. The choice of optional studies by students is almost entirely free, but there is always consultation, advice and occasionally direction by staff. Best results are expected by giving encouragement and opportunity to initiatives from staff and students, while maintaining a critical review of courses, both content and performance. 5th Year the tactic is to encourage students' personal intersts and initiatives and, given the motivation, to permit a broad range of work under supervision. Students may devote part of the year, or exceptionally the whole year, to an approved individual project. The majority are encouraged to bring their varied studies from the 4th Year to bear on a comprehensive architectural design project. The best evidence of professional competence is found, for most students, in their 5th Year projects, but it is accepted that any or all of the work of the 4th and 5th Years provides valid evidence. -

Educational Policy It has been a conscious aim of the Department to create as many academic opportunities as possible for students and staff. Contact with other disciplines has encouraged breadth in the curricula, both in architecture and landscape.

University of Strathclyde Department of Architecture and Building Science University of Strathclyde 131 Rottenrow Glasgow G4 ONG Scotland United Kingdom

The Department of Architecture and Building Science at the University of Strathclyde has evolved directly from the Glasgow School of Architecture which was established in 1904 under the joint control of the Glasgow School of Art and the Glasgow and West of Scotland Technical College. The College later became the Royal Technical College and was affiliated to the University of Glasgow. In 1964 the Royal College gained full university status as the University of Strathclyde and in this new academic context expansion and development in the fields of architectural, building science and planning education quickly took place. A course for the degree of Bachelor of Architecture was instituted. The School of Architecture, Building Science and Planning was created consisting of two departments: Architecture and Building Science and Urban and Regional Planning. In 1982, under the University's restructuring of Schools the Department of Urban and Regional Planning joined the School of Business and Administration and the Department of Architecture and building Science joined the Faculty of Engineering. The Department of Architecture and Building Science is located in the Architecture Building, completed in 1966, and situated on Rottenrow within the city-centre campus of the University of Strathclyde.

Architecture Course Course Structure The present educational structure is in three main parts: The first part is a four year undergraduate course leading to an Honours degree, the BSc in Architectural Studies. The course gives graduates a basic education for the creation and improvement of the built environment. The course is divided into two stages: two years of Foundation Studies are followed by two years of Graduation Studies. Together these periods of study have the broad aim of introducing both the processes and the products of architectural design as the means and ends by and through which certain of man's practical and physical, as well as his cultural and spiritual needs are met. They also seek to put across those ideals believed to be fundamental to the understanding of architecture and the practice of design. The curriculum for this course comprises a number of focal themes which integrate to form a view of Architectural Design. These contributory themes are: Building Technology and Environment, Architecture, Society and Behaviour, History and Theory, Methods and Management, Art and Visual Modelling. They represent closely inter-related fields of knowledge of critical

The curriculum relevance to Architectural Design. emphasises the unifying central role of Design by treating it as the learning focus through which the general architectural issues of function, space and form are addressed and to which all more specific contributory issues are directed and integrated. Focal theme teaching both introduces and develops the conceptual base of each particular field of knowledge, and modifies and integrates those concepts in the process of Architectural Design. In addition each student chooses two optional classes in each year which may be selected from a menu offered by any department within the University. At the Foundation Studies stage it is an integrated pattern which characterises the teaching. At the Graduation Studies stage there is the opportunity to investigate in depth particular aspects within this framework. The second part of the educational pattern occurs after successful completion of the BSc (Architectural Studies). The candidate may: (i) continue studies in a discipline related to Architecture in another department of the University of Strathclyde or in another university; (ii) carry Out research work leading to the award of a postgraduate degree MArch, MSc, PhD; (iii) complete studies and training for the Architectural profession through the BArch course. This may be done by either completing one years experience in a professional, academic or industrial setting which may be taken before or after completion of the BSc, followed by one years fulltime study at the University for the BArch degree. The BArch course includes major design studies, done on a group and individual basis; a class in architectural management and practice, and a special study in a field selected by the student; or by studying in the Department of Architecture and Building Science or in another Department of the University (or possibly at another University) for a degree or diploma in an acceptable field (e.g. urban planning, structural engineering, operational -

research, environmental sciences, building economics, management and design optimization), after which the graduate wishing to qualify as an architect will return for further study leading to the degree of BArch, working in a team of similarly qualified graduates coming from one of several disciplines. The third part of the pattern involves study at postgraduate level either by research or instruction. The Department otters an instructional postgraduate MSc degree in building science. Other postgraduate degrees by research MArch, MSc and PhD can be gained in the Department. -

Professional Examinations It should be noted that the BSc (Architectural Studies) degree has been recognised as exempting graduates from Part 1 of the RIBA Examination in Architecture, and the BArch from Part 2 of the RIBA Examination in Architecture. Since 1977, Sections GI and G2 of Part 3 of the RIBA Examination in Architecture have been recognised as part of the BSc (Architectural Studies) and Section G3 of the Part 3 BArch degree courses. examination can only be taken after two years of approved practical experience. One of these must be gained before The Section G3 of the Part 3 entering BArch. Examination is run for the profession by the University.

Educational Policy The Department aims to integrate teaching, research and practice within the core concept of architectural design and to educate architects who will be able to play a variety of roles in design. To achieve this an educational framework with the following characteristics has been devised: It will accept intelligent creative people who may be artistic, scientific, mathematical or literary in outlook. It will allow through the course, but especially in later years, opportunities Tor developing special interests

and study in depth. It will encourage creative teamwork. It will develop habits of thought, work and design which enable the graduate to cope with technological, political and social changes, and thus to adjust to changing circumstances in an effective way. It will encourage architects to become qualified in allied disciplines to full academic standards which will be recognised professionally.

Library The main library for the University, the Andersonian Library, includes at least 4,000 books and over 50 serials titles directly related to architecture and cognate subjects. This figure excludes books classified under headings such as Art, Management, Engineering, Planning, Information, Sociology, etc. In total the Andersonian Library houses 250,000 books not including serials and their bound back numbers. The Departmental Information Room constitutes an internal resource centre containing extensive product data, technical documentation, copies of all previous students' dissertations and theses and a wide selection of professional journals. In addition there is a large collection of slides, tape/slide sets, video cassettes and audio tapes.

Facilities and Resources The Department possesses numerous items of equipment related to the following teaching and research activities: Meteoroligcal measuring equipment for use on location for microclimate, spot measurements and continuous recording; daylight, artificial light and sunlight measuring equipment for use on location (full scale) or in artificial sky and laboratory studies; energy studies measuring and simulation equipment; environmental measuring equipment for investigating human thermal comfort, analysing the environmental performance of buildings and investigating surface temperatures and condensation; wind measuring equipment for use on student models etc.; noise and acoustic analysis equipment for measuring (field) and analysing (laboratory) noise, reverberation time, acoustic performance etc.; structures measuring equipment for timber and concrete behaviour; Photometric equipment for optical bench and colour experiments; surveying equipment for site and area surveys and recording building elevations and plans.

With guidance, other graduates are helped to make their own arrangements for employment during the After the twelve months practical training period. experience in the Architect's office, or in industry, students move on to a deeper study of Architecture at Final Year level. The BArch course provides a very flexible pattern of work which can be adjusted by the student, with the School's approval, to suit his or her particular needs and interests. The course is structured with four components: practical training (one year), a special subject option (one term), the preparation of a final design project or written dissertation (two terms) and the study of two specific course subjects. In addition, the course regulations require students to study one or more supplementary subjects and allow them to gain credit for this additional work in accordance with the number and content of the

This two-tier pattern also makes it possible for students to transfer from one university to another, after having obtained a first degree, in order to develop their particular architectural interests within the university that best provides for their needs. Part 3 Professional Practice After graduation, and a further two year period of suitable practical training, candidates are eligible to sit the professionally qualifying and Recognised Part 3 examination at The Welsh School of Architecture. Candidates successful in the relevant Recognised Examinations, may then apply to the RIBA for Corporate Membership and to the Registration Council UK for admission to The Register of Architects. The Welsh School of Architecture offers advice to candidates during this further period of practical training, which should normally include relevant UK experience of contract methods and procedures at a professional level. Preparation courses for the examination are also available.

Educational Policy The School's purpose is to provide its students with balanced courses which integrate the creative design aspects with the technical and economic aspects of Architecture whilst avoiding inappropriate emphasis on one area at the cost of others.

Canberra College of Advanced Education School of Environmental Design Canberra College of Advanced Education P.O. Box 1 Belconnen Australian Capital Territory 2616 Australia

Head of the School of Environmental Design: Mr Roger K.H. Johnson

The School of Environmental Design is the sixth school to be formed in the Canberra College of Advanced Education. Its aims are to provide an integrated education for those design and design-related disciplines that contribute to the designed environment. Teaching commenced in 1974 and the first students graduated in 1977. Courses are conducted in Architecture, Industrial Design, Landscape Architecture, Building, Quantity Surveying and Urban and Regional Planning. The CCAE itself was established in 1967 mainly to cater for the needs of the Australian Capital Territory, but it has been recognised from the outset that the CCAE would also be required to meet national needs. From its beginnings the CCAE has had an unusual opportunity to experiment and innovate mainly because it is one of the few such institutions in Australia breaking new ground, uninhibited by any requirements to upgrade an older institution established for different reasons to serve different purposes. The majority of courses at the CCAE have a professional or vocational orientation one of the main reasons for the establishment of colleges of advanced education was to provide career-oriented studies at the tertiary level. But it was also recognised that one of the main purposes of higher education was to train students to think analytically and to be adaptable to change in a rapidly changing world. To this end, courses offered at the CCAE have been developed within an interdisciplinary framwork, and students are encouraged to take supporting studies outside their main field. The site is an attractive one overlooking Lake

Gininderra, close to Belconnen Town Centre, and about 7 km from Canberra's Civic Centre. The School is housed in a new building which opened in 1978.

Architecture Course The basic course structure remains a two-tier one with each 'tier' leading to its separate award. The first award is seen as a preparation for another award and not as a preparation for those who wish to engage in a para-professional role or as a technician. The first tier course in Architecture, the degree of Bachelor of Applied Science in Environmental Design consists of 23 units (69 credit points) taken normally over a period of six semesters (3 years of full-time study). The normal enrolment is four units of study each semester, three units being prescribed and the fourth unit an elective study which may be taken in any School in the CCAE. It is possible to take the first year of the course on a parttime basis. Students are normally required to obtain a years practical experience in a professional office or the building industry before entering the second tier of the Architecture course. The second tier, the degree of Bachelor of Architecture consists of a further 13 units (48 credit points), normally taken over 4 semesters (2 years of full-time study).

Educational Policy (i) To allow for future change by retaining as much flexibility as possible in the structure of the course.

Facilities and Resources Buildings In 1975 the School moved into Building 7 which it shares with Nursing Science, Cartography and Conservation of Materials courses. In 1978 this buildng was extended to add studios and laboratories for the School, the extension adding 3500 square metres of gross usable teaching space to 1500 available in the remodelled Building 7. Other than studios, tutorial and staff rooms, the building

202

provides a Structures Laboratory, Architectural Science Laboratory, Plant Materials Laboratory, Photographic Studio, a Model-making shop and a Building workroom. In 1983 the building linking the extension with Building 7 was completed, allowing staff to be moved from Building 7 to a position closer to the studios and laboratories. Audio-Visual Resources The growing collection of slides is held in the Map and Design Data Library in Building 7. Some audio-visual equipment, which may be borrowed by students by arrangement, is also held in the Centre. The CCAE has a well-established Instructional Media Centre which provides a central pool of equipment, produces video and audio tapes, films, photographs and graphic material.

The New South Wales Institute of Technology School of Architecture The New South Wales Institute of Technology P.O. Box 123 Broadway New South Wales 2007 Australia

The School of Architecture and the School of Building Studies constitute the Faculty of Architecture and Building of the New South Wales Institute of Technology. Since 1969 the degree of Bachelor of Architecture has been offered. Prior to this, since 1963, the course offered diplomas. The School of Architecture is located on the seventh level of Building 2 on the urban Broadway campus of the New South Wales Institute of Technology.

Architecture Course In the New South Wales Institute of Technology Bachelor of Architecture course the normal attendance pattern is parttime. Students take 12 hours per week of formal class work, usually one whole day and two evenings, over six years. At the same time students gain experience in the architectural profession by being employed in offices for a total of approximately four years.

Educational Policy The School pursues a policy of cooperative education, i.e. learing that occurs simultaneously in the work place and in the school. The early contract of students with the practice of architecture assists in the development of skills, recognition of objectives and relevance of intention. Within the School, particular emphasis is given to the

development of the imagination within the context of social and personal goals. The aim is to invoke an enquiring mind, informed by technical information, disciplined by academic rigour and enlivened by creative activity.

Library The main collection for architecture is presently housed in the New South Wales Institute of Technology Library in the Haymarket. Otherwise the Faculty maintains a small library of its own mainly comprising basic reference material: text books, cost guides, Australian Standards, building codes and law reports, trade literature, university handbooks and calendars, catalogues, bibliographies and journals (about 30 subscriptions). This material is augmented by a slide collection containing some 25,000 slides. Copies of undergraduate and postgraduate theses successfully completed within the Faculty are also deposited in the library. All of the above material with the exception of the theses is available for loan to both students and staff.

Facilities and Resources The School has a computing laboratory (24 micros), technical workshop and use of engineering laboratories for structural exploration of materials and wind testing.

The University of New South Wales School of Architecture The University of New South Wales P.O. Box 1 Kensington New South Wales 2033 Australia

Head of the School of Architecture:

The School traces it origins somewhat tenuously from classes in architectural drawing commenced at the Sydney Mechanics' School of Arts in the 1870s. In 1886 classes were transferred to the Technical Institute (later to become the Sydney Technical College) where the Department of Architecture was run by Mr J.F. Hennessy. In 1896 the first Diploma in Architecture was awarded. With the passing of the Architect's Registration Act in the State of New South Wales in 1922, diplomas were thenceforth awarded for the completion of five years of study. In 1947 the School was transferred from the Sydney Technical College to the newly-established NSW University of Technology, with F.E. Towndrow as the first Dean and Professor of Architecture. A five-year degree course in architecture was implemented in 1949. In 1954 the School moved from Ultimo to its present location on the Kensington Campus. In 1958 the University was renamed The University of New South Wales. The Faculty of Architecture now consists of the Schools of Architecture, Building, Town Planning, Landscape Architecture and The Graduate School of the Built Environment.

Students commencing their studies in architecture enrol in the B.Sc. (Des. Studies)/B.Arch. program and undertake a mandatory program of study in the first two semesters. Thereafter students may, with the approval of the Head of School, take subjects in the order best suited to their individual preferences, subject to prerequisite requirements and provided the subjects are being offered in the appropriate semester. On acquiring 117 credit points, and after the completion of at least five semesters of study, students proceeding to the award of the B.Arch. degree transfer into the B.Arch. program and students proceeding to the award of the B.Sc. (Des. Studies) degree transfer into the B.Sc. (Des. Studies) degree program. The program of study for students in the B.Arch. degree course seeking professional qualification provides for 60% of study time being devoted to mandatory core subjects and 40% to elective subjects.

Architecture Course

The professional (B.Arch.) course aims to provide a core (60% of the course content) of material considered to be essential for a practising architect. Recognizing the diversity of talents and aspirations among the students, the course provides opportunitites for students, as they progress, to select from a wide range of elective subjects. After Year 1 (which is a compulsory programme), students

The subjects in the B.Sc. (Des. Studies) and B.Arch. course are offered on a semester-unit credit-point basis. Credit points generally correspond to class hours per week per semester, and it is expected that students take a program averaging 23.4 credit points per semester.

select their own programmes of study in each Semester. They progress by 'subjects' rather than by 'years' until they have amassed the requisite credit points for graduation. One semester (six months) of practical experience is required students may undertake this in any semester before their final semester, after completion of five semesters of full-time study. An alternative degree (B.Sc. [Design Studies]) is provided, for the benefit of students not wishing to obtain professional qualifications to practise architecture. Students working towards this degree make up their programmes of study from the stock of core and elective subjects offered by the School, but electives may consitute a higher proportion of their total course of study. The School endeavours at all times to engender in its students a balance between skills, knowledge and creativity. -

School of Architecture The University of Sydney New South Wales 2006 Australia

Telephone Enquiries: (02) 692 3471

The School of Architecture, University of Sydney was founded in 1918 with the appointment of Professor Leslie Wilkinson to the newly established Chair of Architecture. Subsequently, the first Bachelor of Architecture degrees were awarded in 1922. The Faculty of Architecture now consists of three Departments: Architecture, Architectural Science and Town and Country Planning. Those sections of the three Departments which service the two undergraduate degrees, BSc(Arch) and BArch, comprise the School of Architecture. The School is located on the campus of the University of Sydney about 3 km south-west of the city centre. It is housed in the recently completed Wilkinson building.

Architecture Course The two-tiered bachelor degree structure was first introduced in 1969 and was considerably modified in 1972 with the introduction of a unit/option system. The structure of the courses allows students to choose at the end of the first degree (BSc(Arch)), whether or not they wish to proceed to the second professional degree in architecture (BArch), to a degree in landscape architecture (BLandArch) or whether they wish to go in some other direction. A BSc(Arch) graduate may proceed to the BArch degree provided he/she has undertaken the appropriate prerequisites and has satisfied the requirements of the School by a report on the experience year and by presentation of a folio of design work. The unit/option system consists of a core and electives.

There is a mandatory core for students proceeding only to the BSc(Arch) degree and an enlargement of the core for students wishing to proceed to the BArch degree. The electives allow students to select those subjects outside the core most appropriate to their needs and interests.

Educational Policy Architects are concerned with built form and often give too little attention to the social, political and economic pressures which generate built form. Being good designers is not enough, nor being good designers who know how to construct well. Architects. must have a sound educational base to enable them to interact with the community and to contribute to its philosophies as well as a sound vocational base to enable them to perform the complex task of architecture sensitively and efficiently. The policy of the School is to ensure that education is properly balanced with vocation, enabling each graduate to develop individual aptitudes, skills and interests so as to play a full role in society and to seek excellence in architecture.

Library The Winston Architecture Library is a branch of the main University Library and is located in the Architecture building. It houses the collections of the three Departments of the Faculty, and reflects the teaching and research areas of Architectural Science, Architecture and Town and Country Planning. The Library currently holds the following publications:

The Faculty of the Built Environment consists of: the Department of Architecture and Industrial Design, the Department of Building and Quantity Surveying, the Department of Planning and Landscape Architecture. The policy making body in each Faculty is the Academic Board which reports to the Academic Assembly. The relevance of courses to the needs of industry, commerce, or the general community is carefully monitored by Departmental Course Advisory Committees to which practitioners in the relevant discipline make a major contribution.

Architecture Course The Bachelor of Architecture is a six year part-time course. Students may undertake the fourth and fifth years of the course as full-time students.

Head of the Department of Architecture and Industrial Design: Dr Bill B-P Lim

Telephone Enquiries: (07) 223 2670

One of the characteristics in the profession of architecture is the broad range of activities encompassed. To provide for such diversity this course is designed to provide a central core of design studies complemented by studies in related areas of knowledge and in electives in fields of the students own choice. The general arrangement of the program provides areas of cultural study in the earlier years leading to more specific professional direction in the later years. The course recognises the important complementary role to be played by office and field experience in the education of the student and adopts this as a significant element in the program. The studies draw extensively on the expert knowledge of the employing architects and on the expertise of the many practitioners who participate in the teaching as part-time tutors. In summary, the course aims to prepare students to be practicing architects with sufficient design capability and technological knowledge. Subject to practice requirements, the graduates are eligible for membership of the Royal Australian Institute of Architects and eligible for registration by the Board of Architects of Queensland. The Bachelor of Applied Science (Built Environment) course is a three year full-time interdisciplinary course

Courses in architectural design were offered in the early 1940s. A Faculty of Architecture was established and degree courses in Bachelor of Architecture were first offered in the late 1940s. In the late 1960s regional and town planning disciplines emerged and in the early 1970s a separate Department of Regional and Town Planning was founded within the Faculty of Architecture and Planning. Departments and Faculties report to Pro-Vice-Chancellor in Social Sciences group and also to Academic Board, ViceChancellor and University Senate.

Architecture Course The Department of Architecture offers undergraduate, graduate and postgraduate courses. A matriculating student normally enrols in the three year course for the degree of Bachelor of Design Studies. A subsequent year of practical experience is strongly recommended (but not mandatory) followed by the two year course for the professional degree of Bachelor of Architecture. Postgraduate study in the Department may then lead to the degrees of Master of Architecture and Doctor of Philosophy. Graduates in Design Studies may instead elect to pursue further academic or specialist studies, rather than proceeding to the professional course, by taking the one year Honours

course, and then enrolling for the degrees of Master of Design Studies or PhD.

Educational Policy The recognised schools of architecture in Australia, of which we are one, attempt as a first priority, to equip their students with the complex of skills, knowledge and attitudes appropriate to the practice of architecture as a professional discipline. Within that broad aim variations in style and emphasis exist between schools. This school seeks to achieve a level of excellence in all areas, but both courses emphasise the skills of Design, i.e. the creative ability to organize complex functions and structures in a three-dimensional conceptual framework, which is almost unique to architectural education. Our educational aim remains the fostering of comprehensive vision and judgement no less than specialised scholarship.

South Australian Institute of Technology School of Architecture and Building South Australian Institute of Technology North Terrace Adelaide South Australia 5000 Australia

The Louis Laybourne Smith School ofArchitecture and Building was founded in Adelaide in 1906 to teach Architecture. Located in the Bonython Jubilee Building on Elie North Terrace Campus of the South Australian Institute of Technology, the School now embraces the four disciplines of Architecture, Planning, Building and Interior Design. The philosophy and genre of the School is the integration of these disciplines to provide the technical and creative skills necessary to offer programmes across a wide spectrum of the built environment.

Architecture Course The Bachelor of Architecture course is a five year programme designed to provide the education and training necessary to reach professional level in Architecture and qualifying graduates for admission to corporate membership of the Royal Australian Institute of Architects. Architecture is a high demand discipline, students entering the course have high matriculation scores and all graduates have found employment in the industry. Currently the first year intake is limited to 25 students.

Educational Policy The School capitalises on the multi-disciplinary nature where possible by use of common teaching and complementary tutorials and projects. There is overlap between the Building and Architecture courses, and between Architecture and Interior Design courses. At postgraduate level the programme in Project Management and Property Development draw on the Architecture, Building and Planning fields as well as other

schools in the Institute. The course of Applied Science in Building Technology has a considerable degree of integration with that of the Bachelor of Architecture course as Figure 3 shows. The first year of the course is also closely related with the Bachelor of Interior Design; in particular with the subjects of Design and Communication Studies. Staff overlap and studio facilities are used in common for both courses generating a climate stimulating to imaginative development of the student's skills in conceptual studies and cogent expression of ideas. Beginning in Architectural Design 1 students do project work in conjunction with the practical work conducted in Building Construction units effecting a transfer of teaching expertise from subject specific application to a design studio environment. The subject Architectural Design 5 integrates totally the technical and humanities subjects with the thesis synthesising the student's apprehension of the social, economic, cultural and technological considerations. The staff have integrated and developed the course as an entity in several other ways. For example in Architectural Design 3 the Architecture and Building degree students work as a team to develop their projects. Final year Building and Quantity Surveying students develop the designs of third year Architectural students concentrating on building planning and on pricing. In addition lectures in Construction and Structures are taken in common by students in the Building and Architecture courses on levels 1-3 of these degrees, this is intended to result in a common core of understanding, terminology and skills. The School also integrates industry practice with teaching in two ways. Architecture and Building have an industrial experience requirement which is seen as a

collaborative partnership with industry to inject an element of practical experience within the teaching programme. This experience is monitored and subject to approval, The School adopts the concept of tandem teaching for Design and Construction subjects in which a member of full-time staff gives a formal lecture and this is followed immediately by a tutorial session taken by a practitioner from industry. In fact the School places great emphasis on teaching by practitioners and has a substantial part-time teaching budget.

The Faculty of Architecture and Planning contains only one Department, the Department of Architecture. It is located on the North Terrace campus of the University of Adelaide adjacent to the urban centre of the city.

Architecture Course There are two degrees offered by the Faculty. The first (BArchSt) is open to applicants with matriculation qualifications, while the professional degree (BArch) must be preceded by the BArchSt or a similar course at another institution, or an approved degree from another Faculty. Architectural Studies The Bachelor of Architectural Studies (ordinary degree) may be completed in three years and provides an education about architecture, design and the urban environment. Half of the subjects are in two core courses, Design Studies and Building Studies. The remainder are chosen by the student among subjects of the Department of Architecture and other departments of the University. The Bachelor of Architectural Studies is seen as intellectual development well suited to subsequent entry into the BArch, which is the professional architectural course, and at the same time as an education complete in itself. Careers to which the BArchSt can lead are

administrative or research positions in the building industry and government (environment, conservation, construction, etc.), in local government, in commerce (e.g. property, insurance, and certain design-related industries such as visual communications), as well as within architectural organizations. The Honours degree requires an addition year, and is especially valuable as further preparation for architectural design, planning and landscape postgraduate studies. Architecture The Bachelor of Architecture is also a three year degree, but admission is possible only after suitable tertiary studies. Students with the BArchSt (see above) degree may apply for admission to the BArch. A small number of applications will also be considered from degree holders in related areas, such as engineering, arts, economics or science. The core subject, Architectural Design, is studio-located and project-oriented, and is accompanied by related lectures, fieldwork and studio consultancies. The BArch course is recognised as being suitable background for corporate membership of the RAIA, the Commonwealth Association of Architects, and the academic prerequisite for State registration.

Educational Policy Very briefly, the BArchSt degree is an education about architecture, or in other words a critical study of the built environment. Students have the opportunity in the electives for a broad or for a specific education. The course structure encourages exchange between BArchSt and other faculties. One of the educational beliefs expressed in the relation between the two degrees in the Architecture Department, is that once the Third Year kind of intellectual maturity has been acquired, progress in a professional course such as BArch can be significantly more rapid and more efficient than for a younger student. The BArch is a professional degree for those who wish to become architects. It is an education focussed upon architectural design. It is Studio based, project oriented and involved with technical and practical matters, as well as with theoretical and scientific aspects.

Tasmanian State Institute of Technology School of Architecture, Planning and Landscape Architecture Tasmanian State Institute of Technology P.O. Box 1214 Launceston Tasmania 7250 Australia The School of Architecture Planning and Landscape Architecture (APLA) operates in two centres in Tasmania, Launceston and Hobart. Headquarters are in Launceston at the TSITs Newnham Campus. In Hobart the School operates from the TSITs Study Centre at the Centre for the Arts, Hunter Street. The School of APLA is influenced greatly by its unique context. As a School it is able to offer a teaching programme which can respond to each student as an individual and can meaningfully address emerging design isssues in the community. The School offers the following courses of study Bachelor of Arts (Environmental Design). Three years full time. Bachelor of Architecture. Two years full time. The Bachelor of Architecture is a second tier degree, normally taken immediately after the B.A. (Env.Design) degree, making five years of full-time study in all. Students who complete their B.A. (Env.Design) degrees in Hobart transfer to Launceston for their Bachelor of Architecture studies. Graduate Diploma in Urban and Regional Planning Three years part-time.

Feeder course to the RMIT Bachelor in Applied Science (Landscape Architecture). Two years full time.

The School of APLA is part of the Division of Environmental Design which also includes the Schools of Art and Engineering.

Architecture Course B.A. (Environmental Design) The Bachelor of Arts (Env.Design) is seen primarily as preparation for the Bachelor of Architecture (or higher award in another institution). It is not seen as preparation for those who wish to engage in a paraprofessional role or as a technician. It forms a necessary first stage in the qualifying process for an architect, however, not all students who complete it will proceed along that route. It must therefore fulfil the role of identifying potential architects and providing the basic groundwork for their subsequent studies. On the other hand it must provide for all students a vocationally orientated, but not necessarily profession-specific course so that they may enter a range of design-related careers.

B. Arch. The course in Architecture is orientated specifically to the needs of the architectural profession and aims to equip students with the fundamental knowledge, skills, capabilities and awareness which are necessary for a graduate to practice architecture. It is assumed that a previous degree has been completed which provides a theoretical and practical background to the issues which are studied within this course. To successfully complete the Bachelor of Architecture, students are required to demonstrate flexibility, relevance, competence and balance in the analysis, synthesis, judgement and communication of architectural ideas and solutions.

diversity of views and opportunities for collaborative sharing of skills.

Library The library collection includes books, periodicals, cassettes, slides, prints, maps, films, video tapes and information in several other formats. The development of skills in the use of libraries and in finding information is a basic element of a college education. To this end, trained library staff are ready to assist students in using the library catalogues and other bibliographic tools, and to help find the information they need. An inter-library loan service provides for occasions when the collection cannot meet particular information requirements.

Educational Policy The academic objectives of the School are to provide learning opportunities directed to a better understanding of environmental issues, and to prepare graduates with skills to contribute both to traditional and new forms of design practice. Students come from all parts of Austrtalia, and from abroad, representing a wide range of disciplines. The School seeks a varied composition to encourage

Students may borrow books and a wide range of audiovisual material and equipment including cassette tapes, projectors, tape recorders and typewriters.

Facilities and Resources The School of APLA occupies new purpose-built facilties in both Launceston and Hobart with well equipped studios, lecture and seminar rooms. It is also

The Advanced College is made up of the Graduate School of Management and the following six faculties: Applied Science; Environmental Design and Construction; Art; Business; Engineering; Humanities and Social Sciences. It is located in the Central Business District of Melbourne. The Faculty of Environmental Design and Construction consists of the Departments of Architecture; Interior Design; Planning, Policy and Landscape; Building and Construction Economics. Each of these Departments is further sub-divided into Units, which offer courses in different built-environment related disciplines.

Architecture Course The Bachelor of Aicliitecture may be taken as a full-time course over five years, as a part-time course, or as a combination of these two modes of study. A new Bachelor of Architecture course structure was introduced in 1985. The new structure included more options, made the course more adaptable to change, embodied more variety and allowed for more specialization. Each subject has a credit point rating and the degree is awarded for the completion of a total of 207 credit points.

Head of the Architecture Department: Mr Leon Van Schaik

The University of Melbourne Department of Architecture and Building University of Melbourne Parkville Victoria 3052 Australia

Architecture is taught at the University of Melbourne within the Department of Architecture and Building. The Department is one of two within the Faculty of Architecture and Planning. The other Department is the School of Environmental Planning. The current Faculty was created in 1982 by the amalgamation of the Faculty of Architecture Building Town and Regional Planning and the Centre for Environmental Studies. The degree of Bachelor of Architecture has been offered by the University for over 50 years, and the first teaching in architecture was in Engineering in the 1890's. The first diploma in architecture was awarded in 1911. The Department offers professional and research degrees in architecture and building, has three professors (two in architecture and one in building) and 20 full-time members of the academic staff. A third Chair in Architecture has recently been established.

Architecture Course From 1985 the Faculty introduced a new degree structure. The five year BArch programme was replaced by a two tier programme with professional qualifications being achieved through an initial three years Bachelor of Planning and Design followed by a two year BArch. The first tier is the Bachelor of Planning and Design and requires a minimum of three years. It is a Faculty degree

and is the first step for professional education in Architecture, Building, Quantity Surveying, Landscape Architecture and Environmental Studies. For the degree students are required to take two majors over three years, and other subjects for the other 50% of the course load. Ten majors are available. After receiving the BPD and obtaining 1 year of work experience, students may enter the Bachelor of Architecture. For entry to the BArch passes are required in the Architectural Design and Building Construction Majors, and other prescribed subjects from the majors in Architectural theory, Architectural History and Building Sciences and Mathematics. Students will be encouraged to take additional subjects during the BPD from majors offered for Building, Planning, Landscape Architecture and Environmental Studies, and where appropriate take more than three years for the BPD. Lateral entry into the BPD is possible. Students wishing to enter the postgraduate diploma or masters, without the entry subjects (or their equivalent), will be required to do preliminary studies to overcome the deficit.

Educational Policy The emphasis of the new degree structure is twofold:

to allow students to delay their final career choice within the array covered by the Faculty; to allow students to study widely in the field of the Built Environment.

Within this framework, for a professional education in architecture, the pre-professional degree will focus on developing skills, knowledge and techniques in the basic elements of architecture, integration of thought and action in design and the importance of human behaviour as a determinant of building design. The postgraduate diploma will focus on advanced design and construction as well as professional practice. The Masters degre and its prerequisite BPD honours degree will also allow research in an area of interest to the student.

Library The library, a branch of the University Library, is housed in the Architecture and Planning Building and serves the whole Faculty. It has over 50,000 volumes, over 50,000 slides and receives most architectural journals. Through the library, access is available to dark rooms, personal computers and typewriters.

Deakin University began teaching in 1977, and now with a student enrolment of about 6,000, is a small and friendly community. The School of Architecture is located on the main campus at Waurn Ponds on an eight-two hectare site, eight kilometres from Geelong. The University has several distinctive features: it is the only university in Victoria outside the metropolitan area; organized into six Schools, its degree courses are grouped into programs enabling and encouraging students who enrol in a program in one School, to take courses offered by other Schools; it emphasises interdisciplinarity, with courses being developed by teams of academic experts; many of its courses are available in the off-campus mode. -

Architecture Course Bachelor of Arts (Architecture) Bachelor of Architecture New Program In 1983 the School introduced a two-tiered program comprising a three-year program leading to the degree of

Bachelor of Arts (Architecture). The School also offers a Bachelor of Architecture degree program which can be entered on completion of the BA(Arch) and which leads to professional recognition. The Bachelor of Arts (Architecture) program is designed to meet the needs of students who ultimately intend to practise architecture but alternative programs may be taken by those students who wish to pursue different career directions. Each level comprises 8 semester units. Satisfactory completion of the first three levels totalling 24 semester units, leads to the degree of BA(Arch), and the completion of a further 16 semester units of Professional Studies leads to the degree of Bachelor of Architecture. To qualify for registration by the Architects' Registration Board of Victoria, and admission to the Royal Australian Institute of Architects, a student should complete: an undergraduate degree of not fewer than 24 semester units, at least 6 of which must be at Level 3 and no more than 10 at Level 1 and which includes a pass in all of nine specified courses; and a Bachelor of Architecture comprising Professional Studies (at Level 4 and Level 5). Students may study courses without seeking to meet professional registration requirements providing that: they have been admitted to a suitable program; satisfy any

The University of Western Australia Department of Architecture University of Western Australia Nedlands Western Australia 6009 Australia

An Interim Faculty of Architecture was brought into being by the Senate of the University in 1965, with the establishment of the Faculty of Architecture following in 1967.

Architecture Course The Faculty offers a five year full-time undergraduate course of study leading to a Bachelor of Architecture (BArch) degree. This degree can be awarded as a 'pass' or an 'honours' qualification. The first two years concentrate on introductory studies in design, aesthetics, history, building science, structures, draughting, introduction to use of the computer and the acquisition of graphic skills. These provide the foundation of later studies which have a more professional content. Students are required to study four architecture half-units and two elective units during their first year. The elective units are chosen from subjects offered by other faculties of the University most often from the Faculties of Arts and Science. The Dean must approve the selection of these electives which can be chosen to extend a student's special interests. In the second year of the course students complete six half-units, all from the Faculty of Architecture. The third year continues with studies of materials, construction and structures, building services, architectural science, aesthetics, history and economics, all of which are closely integrated with design exercises. -

Head of the Department of Architecture: Dr D.D. Carruthers

Telephone Enquiries: (09) 380 2582

The fourth and fifth years present more sophisticated problems in institutional and civic architecture and in planning. Work on design is complemented by lectures in construction, structures, town planning, interior design, landscape, history and aesthetics. Leave of absence after the third or fourth year may be granted to enable a candidate to acquire practical experience in an architect's office or on the site.

Library Books and published material relating to architecture are held in the Central (Reid) Library, and the Maths and Physics Library. The Central Library has a growing collection of audio-visual material including slides, films and video. The Resource Room in the Department of Architecture houses a basic reference collection, theses, a limited range of periodicals, trade literature, slides and micro-fiche data on construction details. A separate archival collection within the Department, relates to Western Australian history.

The School offers professional qualifications in Architecture and in Property Administration, and with the Town Planning Department forms the Faculty of Architecture, Property and Planning, one of nine faculties in the University of Auckland.

Architecture Course As with most professional courses in New Zealand, the first year of the 5-year BArch is the so-called Intermediate Year, taken at any university and comprising a choice of general subjects that can be transferred to other degrees if the student is not selected for the competitive entry to First Professional. The Intermediate includes a folder of drawings. In each of the first four Professional years, half the course is Studio, supported by a range of core and elective

subjects. The School has a strong design emphasis. The Studios representing half the credits for each year, are conducted in the afternoons, with lectured subjects in the mornings.

Educational Policy We have long been the only School in New Zealand, and are still much the larger. We believe therefore that we have a responsibility to accommodate a wide variety of approaches to architecture. We believe that design is fundamental to the contribution of architects, so we emphasise it; we also provide opportunities for advanced work in many other areas, including theory, history, drawing, acoustics and other specific aspects of technology, practice and management.

Victoria University of Wellington Faculty of Architecture Victoria University of Wellington Private Bag Wellington New Zealand

Chairperson of the School of Architecture: Ms Wendy Light

Telephone Enquiries: 721 000 (ext.961)

The Faculty of Architecture at Victoria University was established in 1974, with the appointment of the Head of School and Foundation Dean, Professor Gerd Block. The first courses were offered in March 1975. The first students graduated Bachelor of Architecture in April 1979. In that year also, Professor Helen Tippett joined Professor Block as Professor of Architecture. The School is located in a cluster of three closely related buildings on the south end of the University campus. A refitted large old Wellington house at 91 Kelbum Parade, serves as the School's administrative centre; 77 Fairlie Terrace is a purpose-designed Architectural Sciences Laboratory containing multi-function teaching and laboratory spaces, and workshop and technical spaces; 83 Fairlie Terrace, another large old house, accommodates student work rooms, the urban simulation laboratory and staff and technical support facilities. The School currently operates as a single department Faculty, with Chairperson of Department (Head of School) appointed by the University Council and Dean of the Faculty elected by the Faculty. Both appointments are normally for overlapping three year terms.

Architecture Course The normal entry route to the School is via the Architecture Intermediate which may be taken as a first year university course at any New Zealand University. Entry to first professional year in the School is based on performance in the Architectural Intermediate. Exemptions

do exist, particularly for graduates or those with significant experience in the building industry. The School operates a "two-tier" system, offering degrees in building science and in architecture. Satisfactory completion of the first two professional years leads to graduation with the degree of Bachelor of Building Science (BBSc). This degree equates to other three year degrees at VUW (e.g. BA, BSc). At this stage, students may choose: to terminate their enrolment; to take time out to gain some practical experience; to proceed to the BBSc(Hons) degree; to continue to a degree in Architecture. For those who choose the last option, satisfactory completion of third and fourth professional years leads to graduation with the degree of Bachelor of Architecture (BArch). This degree may be awarded with Honours depending on level of performance. The many individual but inter-related courses of study leading to the BBSc and BArch degrees are organised in six teaching sections: Architectural Method and Design; Communication and Management; Environmental Control; Construction Technology; Structures; History of Architecture. These teaching sections are considered to be of equal significance in the development of professional education in the building industry in general and in architecture in particular. -

In each of the undergraduate courses, there is a group of requisite subjects called core courses, embracing each of the teaching sections. In the first and second professional years the core courses concentrate on the early development of analytical skills and technical knowledge as a foundation for the professional and design content in the later years of the course. Provision is made for some elective work (about 15%). In third and fourth professional years courses broaden in scope and freedom of subject choice with individual electives to allow students to match their aptitudes and interests with the needs of society for varied professional expertise.

Educational Policy The Wellington School offers a balanced learning programme aimed at graduating people equipped to work for the professional, technical and scientific advancement of the building industry. The School believes in careers in architecture, in developing people with architectural skills as well as people who specialise to become architects. The central tenet is that architects require a framework of aesthetic and functional appreciation of the total building task and that this framework can best be gained by a thorough grounding in construction technology, environmental control, and structures as well as an understanding of the historical, cultural, social, political and economic factors influencing their work.

Library The multi-disciplinary nature of the School's educational programme led to the policy decision to make use of the VUW Central library rather than build up a separate small departmental library. The library is located in the main campus about five minutes walk from the School. The VUW library houses about 500,000 books and 200,000 periodicals. Our estimate is that 15,000 books and 5,000 periodicals are directly relevant to courses of study at the School. The library is funded and staffed by the University, with an Architecture Librarian and a Slide Librarian to support the School's programme. Currently some 20,000 art and architecture slides have been catalogued and a further 10,000 await cataloguing. A computer based slide indexing system has been specifically developed by the School to facilitate retrieval of slides for art history, architecture and technology. In addition to the central library facility a comprehensive technical data base is maintained at the School. The data base is maintained on micro-fiche and was established in cooperation with the ministry of Works and Development. The technical information centre (TIC) is accessible to staff and students and fiches can be borrowed.

Facilities and Resources Located in the Capital of New Zealand, the School is able to draw on many resources. The Ministry of Works and Development, the Department of Scientific and Industrial Research, the Building Research Association of New Zealand and other government departments and organizations often provide specialist advice, visiting lecturers and research facilities. The School believes strongly in bringing together the learning and practice of architecture. Throughout the course of study emphasis is placed on assignments which may contribute to and involve the community. Use is made of architects and other consultants practices, construction sites and completed buildings in use as learning situations. Practising architects and others concerned with the built environment regularly assist with class and assignment work. The School has fully equipped learning spaces, laboratories, workshop, workrooms and photographic darkrooms. The laboratories are multi-function spaces for testing construction components and materials, measurements of environmental factors and for architecture design activities. An extensive range of learning and research aids includes colour video-tape facilities, an IBM PC network system, in-house graphics terminal links to the University's IBM 4341 mainframe, an urbanscope, a beam testing rig, wind tunnel, water table, lighting effulger, and other equipment for surveying and for testing acoustics, lighting, colour, materials, structures and the thermal environment. The School maintains its own well equipped and staffed workshops for wood, metal and instrument work to support its teaching and research activities. There is a construction yard and model making facility. The School does not operate on a traditional "studio" basis. Only minimal space is reserved for exclusive uses, the remainder being multi-functional. Each student has the personal use of a large storage locker, but otherwise makes use of the common facilities. The drawing office and project work rooms provide adequate drawing and writing facilities for all students and are often "personalised'. A common room is set aside solely for student use while instruction aid rooms, audio-visual and reprographic equipment are distributed throughout the School usually related directly to student work areas.

The Papua New Guinea University of Technology Department of Architecture and Building The Papua New Guinea University of Technology Private Mail Bag Lae Papua New Guinea

Acting Head of the Department of Architecture and Building: Professor M.R. Austin

The Department of Architecture and Building was started with the establishment of the then PNG Institute of Technology in Lae, Morobe Province in 1970. The programmes offered make use of teaching staff from the Department of Surveying and Land Management and the service Departments of Mathematics, Applied Physics, and Languages and Communication. In turn the Department of Architecture and Building provides teaching staff for subjects in the Land Management programme. There are no faculties at the University of Technology.

This new programme's objective is to prepare students for design and construct enterprises in provincial towns and villages where the greatest demand exists for public, community and commercial one to three storey buildings. City based architectural practices are reaching capacity to absorb graduates. Most student studio projects are real community projects. The Department also offers jointly with the University of Papua New Guinea in Port Moresby a two year Postgraduate Diploma in Physical Planning. Candidates must have an appropriate undergraduate degree or significant work experience in physical planning. The first year of studies is taken at the University of Papua New Guinea in Port Moresby with the first semester of second year at the PNG University of Technology in Lae and the final semester taken at either campus depending on the topic of their major project. These programmes are recognised by public service as professional standard in Papua New Guinea and Bachelor of Architecture and Building as qualification requirement for full membership in the Papua New Guinea Institute of Architects.

Architecture Course The Professional programme of study has recently changed from a six year post Grade 10 Bachelor of Architecture and Building Degree which included one year of practical training. The new programme is two tier, the first award being a Diploma in Building Technology after four years post Grade 12 in which the fourth year is Practical Training. This can be followed by a further two years study leading to a Bachelor of Architecture and Building for students who achieve better than a 65% average grade in their diploma studies. Three streams in the BArch&Bldg programme allow some specialization in architectural design, physical planning or building management and economics.

projects commonly encountered in architecture practice and building companies in Papua New Guinea. To that end most of the design projects are real projects for non-profit organizations or government or community bodies. Wherever possible they are followed through to construction, i.e. new public toilets for Lae. The objective of this approach is to produce graduates who can operate confidently on graduation. At Diploma of Building Technology level, this would apply to buildings up to three stories walk up in timber frame, reinforced concrete block and steel frame construction. These buildings represent more than 80% of this country's needs. Graduates with Bachelor of Architecture and Building will cover the more sophisticated services and construction encountered in highrise buildings or highly serviced buildings such as hospitals, and specialised factories. Use of micro-computers is encouraged where productivity benefits are shown.

Library The University has a central library containing some 80,000 volumes plus periodicals and audio visual material. Architecture and building materials consist of approximately 7,000 volumes of recent publication, collections of 42 journals generally from about 1970, 30 16 mm films, 10 video tapes (Beta, VHS and Umatic), 50 slide tape sets.

Facilities and Resources The Department of Architecture and Building shares an academic building with the Department of Accountancy and Business Studies. Architecture and Building facilties include classrooms, computer room, darkroom, studios and audio visual rooms and a building science demonstration laboratory with heliodon, 2 x 1 metre boundary layer wind

tunnel and a range of small bench top apparatus. Computer facilities are two terminals to Prime 550, one BBC and Apple II micros. Elsewhere on campus the Department has a well equipped workshop for woodwork, metal work and pottery. Sites are available on campus for experimental buildings and a transport pool of buses facilitates field trips to other parts of the country. Air travel is also used on remote field trips but is more limited due to cost.

Research: Commonwealth Schools of Architecture Research in schools of architecture fits no clearly defined pattern, varying greatly in range of interests and quantity from school to school. The understanding of research as the gathering of facts by careful observation and experiment, followed by the development of theories, is challenged by those who also see the process of design as an activity equivalent to research. Poincaré, the French mathematician is reported as saying 'It is by logic that we prove and by intuition that we discover' indicating that creative research draws upon both aspects of human thought. In both research and design there needs to be interaction between the development of concepts and the testing of those concepts against the available facts, and it appears that in many schools the co-existence of research and design is accepted. Traditionally, Schools of Architecture have valued the skills which academic staff have gained by retaining involvement in practice. Research in the Schools is a more recent activity, encouraged in Britain and elsewhere by the recommendations of the 1958 Oxford Conference on education. In the survey, some Schools commented that it is difficult for an individual both to practise and to do research. When asked if practice is regarded as an alternative to research, just over half (57.8%) of Schools said yes and 21.1% said no. A further 21.1% qualified their answer with comments such as: Only if specialised. If at a suitable level. Yes, provided it involves creative input, beyond routine. Yes, in respect of specialised buildings. Yes, provided such consultancy service is on a research project. Practice is complementary to research. Yes, in theory. No, from promotion viewpoint. In theory no, but excellence equal to refereed publications, yes. More by the School than by higher authorities in the University. Has not been recognised by the University but we have always disputed this. Not entirely. Practice does not enjoy the same academic standing (in other eyes). By professional schools, yes; by Arts/Science on the whole, no. Battle continues. Although the need for some teaching staff to have contact with private practice is not always recognised by some outside the Schools, clearly it is valued by most of the Schools themselves. In the survey, only 31.9% of Schools stated that staff members were expected to engage in private practice, but 75.8% of Schools stated that staff were encouraged to engage in private practice. Only in 3.3% of Schools were staff discouraged from practice. Conditions which apply to private practice include: No conditions. All studio teachers are well known practitioners. Upper limitations on income and time. Permission of Institution/Head of School required. Practice only through Institutional consultancy. Portion of the income to be given to the Institution. Private practice should not affect University responsibilities. No conflict of interest, first commitment is to the School. Practice should be of a higher consultative or specialist nature. The extensive list of research on the following pages indicates a growing volume of research in Schools of Architecture. It is not complete because not every School described its research, but it does give a good indication of the range of topics currently being researched in the Schools. Because private practice is also encouraged by most Schools, it means that a general situation will evolve where staff will choose to -

281

specialise in an area of research or practice which best suits their needs or interests. In this way both research and practice will continue to make valuable and complementary contributions to teaching in architecture. The policy in one School states: 'Faculty are required to engage in scholarly and creative work: some are involved in private practice (and encouraged to do so) while others do theoretical or traditional scholarly work'. This is a sensible policy to which other Schools also subscribe. Note: In the following list of research, names of Schools are abbreviated and printed in italics. A list of the abbreviations appears on page 267.
