ARC 380 - Thermal Environmental Systems
Units: 3
When Offered: Fall
This course deals with the thermal and environmental processes which effect buildings and how the designer responds to or manipulates the thermal environment. It is necessary for the architect to understand those processes, the human response to them and the impact of them. The class will be organized around the why, what and how of these issues and processes.
Prerequisite(s): PHY 115

ARC 385 - Luminous and Sonic Environmental Systems
Units: 3
When Offered: Spring
The course deals with those building elements that pertain to the visual and aural conditioning for the purposes of human use and comfort. The basic principles of light (natural and electrical) and acoustical systems, their integration with other building systems and the impact on the aesthetics of design will be stressed. Plumbing and electrical systems also will be presented. The sustainability of various systems will be explored.

ARC 393 - Structural Systems I
Units: 3
When Offered: Fall
Introductory course in statics and strengths of materials for architects. The course provides both qualitative understanding and quantitative understanding, but places a specific focus on the conceptual relationships between structure and form. Topics include static systems, tension and compression, bending and shear stress, combined stresses, strain, cross-sectional considerations, and the physical behavior of structural materials and systems. Additionally, this course integrates the above material with design studio processes via course projects and course format.
Prerequisite(s): MAT 145 or 245

ARC 410 - Design Studio V
Units: 6
When Offered: Fall
This course is an advanced design studio that assumes a high level of proficiency in design process and representation, as well as in other content areas developed in previous studios. This studio focuses on the conceptualization and implementation of comprehensive architectural design. Students will be expected to draw upon all previous coursework in order to thoroughly develop a project from a detailed program. Emphasis will be placed on the elaboration of architectural ideas through integration and syntheses of structural, environmental, envelope, building assemblies, life-safety systems and the principles of sustainability.
Prerequisite(s): ARC 312
Pre- or Co- Requisite(s): ARC 480 and 493
