Notes:
It is highly recommended that incoming students in this track request course waivers through their portal before beginning the program. Courses that students are typically waived from include Construction Technology, Environmental Systems 2, Structues 2 and Architectural Communications 1. Students who receive a waiver for Construction Technology will substitute the course for an elective, and intellectual domain course or a technical methods course in the first semester. Receiving waivers for courses does not decrease the total number of credits required in the program.
Technical Methods and Intellectual domain seminar numbers are listed below. It's recommended that students register for the seminar that is affiliated with their studio, if possible.
Students who plan to do Thesis must be registered for Directed Research the semester before Thesis. A minimum GPA of 3.5 is required for those who wish to be registered for Directed Research or Thesis.
Students are required to take either Thesis or Portfolio to fulfill their culminating experience for graduation.
Students may register for a maximum of one independent study course each semester, with a maximum career total of two. Independent study courses will count toward elective credits.
