- How did the ro le of the archi tect and the profess ion emerge and evolve?- How does cu l ture p lay a ro le in the evolut ion of the archi tect?- How does one interpret archi tectura l e lements f rom the Renaissance & Baroque per iods?- How does th is cyc le in archi tectura l h is tor y compare to today?

The Depar tment of Archi tecture (DoArch) must demonstrate that each g raduate possesses the knowledge and sk i l l s def ined by the cr i ter ia be low. The knowledge and sk i l l s def ined here represent those required to prepare g raduates for the path to internship, examinat ion, and l icensure and to engage in re la ted f ie lds. The Depar tment must provide s tudent work as ev idence that i t s g raduates have sat i s f ied each cr i ter ion. The 2014 NAAB Cond i t i on s f o r Ac c r ed i ta t i on , inc luding a fu l l descr ipt ion of Student Perfor mance Cr i ter ia , can be found at http://www.naab.org/ . The cr i ter ia encompass two leve ls of accompl ishment :

- Understanding: The capac i ty to c lass i fy, compare, summarize, expla in , and/or interpret infor mat ion.- Abi l i ty : Prof ic iency in us ing spec i f ic infor mat ion to accompl ish a task , cor rect ly se lect ing the appropr ia te infor mat ion, and accurate ly apply ing i t to the so lut ion of a spec i f ic problem, whi le a l so d is t inguish ing the effects of i t s implementat ion. Student Perfor mance Cr i ter ia are organized into rea lms to more eas i ly understand the re la t ionships between each cr i ter ion.

Realm A: Cri t ical Thinking and Representat ion: Graduates f rom NAAB-accredi ted prog rams must be able to bui ld abstract re la t ionships and understand the impact of ideas based on the s tudy and ana lys i s of mul t ip le theoret ica l , soc ia l , pol i t ica l , economic, cu l tura l , and environmenta l contexts. Graduates must a l so be able to use a d iverse range of sk i l l s to th ink about and convey archi tectura l ideas, inc luding wr i t ing , invest ig at ing , speaking , drawing , and model ing.

Realm B: Bui lding Practices, Technical Ski l ls , and Knowledge. Graduates f rom NAAB-accredi ted prog rams must be able to comprehend the technica l aspects of des ign , sys tems, and mater ia l s and be able to apply that comprehens ion to archi tectura l so lut ions. In addi t ion, the impact of such dec is ions on the environment must be wel l cons idered .

Realm C: Integrated Architectural Solutions. Graduates f rom NAAB-accredi ted prog rams must be able to demonstrate that they have the abi l i ty to synthes ize a wide range of var iab les into an integ rated des ign so lut ion.

Realm D: Professional Practice. Graduates f rom NAAB-accredi ted prog rams must understand bus iness pr inc ip les for the pract ice of archi tecture, inc luding management , advocacy, and the need to act lega l ly, e th ica l ly, and cr i t ica l ly for the good of the c l ient , soc ie ty, and the publ ic.

This course depends pr imar i ly on lecture and some discuss ion in order to cover the course mater ia l . Each week, s tudents wi l l be required to read the ass igned text . Both required and recommended texts wi l l be posted weekly on the c lass web s i te. Readings should be completed for the d iscuss ion they are l i s ted for.
