13 courses with the subject ARCH, each shown exactly as we captured it from the college's catalog, with every element we hold. Where the wording looks broken, that is our reading of the catalog, not the college's text.
This course covers the study of the roles that designers play in society, the impact of design, and what job markets are available in the areas of architecture, landscape architecture, interior design, product design, urban and master planning design, graphic design, and other design related professions.
Students gain the practical knowledge in the use of AutoCAD that is essential in producing architectural drawings. This course includes hands-on applications. Simple drawings will be produced.
Studies include the manipulation of scanned and digital images, desktop publishing, digital presentations and web page designs. Various computer software will be used to promote the ideas and designs of architects and designers.
This course is focused on the quick sketching of architectural structures and their surroundings. During the semester, we learn sketching techniques and concepts that build on each other to produce professional architectural sketches that communicate perspective, context, vegetation, shading, and materiality.
In this course, students will develop CAD (computer aided draft) skills using BIM (building information modeling) software. The specific software that we will be using for this class will be Autodesk Revit. Over the course of the semester, the basic functions of the software will be learned, and the application of these skills to construction documentation will be examined.
In this course we observe and analyze the ways that cities comprise an urban ecology. We will look at historic and contemporary design strategies that have shaped our region and cities throughout the world, including ways to create equitable and sustainable places. The course will also look at the need for advancing resilient infrastructure and ways of responding to climate change.
Focuses on the effective presentation and creation of digital graphics related to architectural communication. Digital tools and techniques will be introduced and implemented to produce presentation drawings, printed boards, and physical models. Technology used in the course includes Adobe Creative Suite and various three-dimensional modeling software.
This course intends to familiarize students with the works of architecture within the timeframe of 3500 BCE to 1200 CE. The course provides students with the geographical, historical, and social contexts of great and modest structures, and it explores how design flourished within and from the constraints and parameters of the time. We dive into the study of means and methods of each time period, how new developments in materials and technology informed design, how worldwide events affected local and global cultures, and how architecture becomes a mirror of the world around it.

This course introduces an iterative design process that utilizes fundamental design principles and processes. Students develop their own approach and manipulation of this process. The projects will be abstract in nature, dealing with concepts and skills that are at the foundation of continued studies in any design discipline grounded in graphic or built applications.
Advanced Architectural Design Workshop will build on Design Foundations Workshop and will reinforce the same design process of iteration and exploration. The course will focus on 3-D design, introduction to basic elements of form, ordering principles, concept of scale, material selection and control, the role of light in design, and an understanding of design in our experience at human scale.
This course will further reinforce the design process of iteration and exploration. It provides experience in studio-related skill development, emphasizes the fundamentals of the design process, basic skills in research, argument curation, design pedagogy and the collaborative process, scale, environmental factors, 3-D composition, representation, and presentation.
This course is designed so the student can work on special individualized projects under the supervision of the instructor.
