Department of Architecture
COURSE CURRICULUM
The courses in this program are organized systematically, in order of complexity and scope, and maintain sequence. As a result, courses are interlinked at different levels. Two types of courses are offered in the program; studio and theory. Lower level courses are designed to develop basic aptitude in artistic skills, develop a sense of aesthetic appreciation and provide a general foundation for further courses and studies. Higher level courses are designed to diversify knowledge and provide specific understanding of certain areas which are essential for an architect.
