ARCH 380 is a great design computing introduction, especially for
students in or planning for a major in the School of Art and College of
Engineering.
This Autumn, we have opened up ARCH 380-Computers in Architecture to non-Architecture majors.
Taught by Prof Mehlika Inanci, ARCH 380 is an introductory course to Design Computing and will:
1.
Provide an overview of the
principles, theories, methods that underlie the applications of Design Computing;
2.
Create awareness and familiarity
with the current issues and practices in Design Computing;
3.
Develop abilities to represent
architectural designs using a variety of digital tools.
Content The content of the course is presented through a series of lectures,
demonstrations and laboratory sessions.
