ARCH 720 : Advanced Architecture Theory

The course will examine how architectural theory has continued to expand at such a rate that it is impossible to address the entirety of the current discourse in one or even several courses. The objective here is to provide a grounding in the main streams of theoretical thinking, to acquaint the student with principal voices in architectural discourse and the defining differences in current thinking as well as provide a useful way of organizing the varying ideas in that discourse into some coherent and useful system of thought.
