Architecture


Architecture is a cultural act. Both the first-professional


and post-professional programs seek to formulate a


contemporary approach to architecture that is “ecological”


in the sense that it provides collective exchanges that


are both trans-disciplinary and trans-categorical. This


ecological approach encourages feedback, theoretical studies,


and exposure to myriad other categories and disciplines


that are newly emerging in contemporary culture. It


also helps students develop relationships with industry,


manufacturing, and political agencies. This approach seeks


to intensify hetero geneous interests and agencies. In


addition, the programs see architectural innovations in both


theory and practice of architecture and the interconnected


phenomena out of which the discipline emerges.
