    Critical Analysis of a wide range of sustainable design principles leading to an understanding of detailing methodologies in many types and scales of construction and materials. Material will also address issues of site, building form, building
    service systems and place-making, and provide comparison of details with constructed functioning cultural precedents. The course will also include field trips, workshops, and visiting lecturers.
  

  • EDAD535 Professional Practice I 3cr

    Students are introduced to the issues of architectural practice through social and community design issues, fiduciary responsibility, design and construction contracts and contract law, regulations and codes governing design and construction, ethics, sustainability and environmental issues and requirements for planning, site design and building design and construction.
  

  • EDAD567 Building Operating Systems 3cr

    Mechanical/electrical/plumbing/communication systems for domestic to tall buildings are introduced in the context of declining energy supplies and increasing global pollution. Lower energy systems for heating, ventilating, air conditioning, plumbing, and lighting for new and retro-fit applications are contrasted with traditional systems, and selections of architectural design and landscape elements which support more sustainable systems are covered. Students estimate heating, cooling, ventilating, lighting, electrical, elevator, sewage and pure water loads and gain some understanding of how handling these loads affects the space and layout of buildings and what sort of collaboration with engineers is to be expected. The principles of operation and code standards for the various environmental control systems are explained, together with relative costs and expected maintenance requirements. Issues of energy source availability, safety, pollution, storage and delivery are discussed from a local and global perspective. Field trips to local “”green”” buildings demonstrate the use of currently available lower energy systems.

Students analyze urban and historical site and building precedents, select and design steel and concrete frame systems that support their project concept, site and proposed uses, develop typical wall sections illustrating an understanding of fire separation assemblies, sustainable building envelope systems, and hone graphic design skills in their presentations. 

    Prerequisites: EDAD-605

  

  • EDAD708 Thesis I 6cr

    Completing a successful independent thesis is the culmination of the Master of Architecture degree at MassArt. 

    In Thesis I students select an issue in the field of architectural design as the basis for their thesis project. The first half of the
    course is focused on developing well-structured research broadly based on the student’s topics of interest and related areas that influence the program, approach to the site, technologies and other aspects relevant to the design. The goal is to
    develop the thesis proposal with a finalized site and a research agenda.

    In the second half of the course, the students zero in on their sharpened thesis topic, and work through the second round of more in-depth investigation and analysis of their earlier work, adding new components including interviewing experts, understanding current and historical precedents, and additional areas that may also support the social, cultural and philosophical issues for the design. By the end of the course, students have completed the research and analysis
    and have begun to test their concepts through preliminary design studies.

    Prerequisites: EDAD-702, EDAD-711, EDAD-720

  

  • EDAD711 Making Cities Work 3cr

    What design decisions lead to a more sustainable future and how are those decisions made? The space between buildings-a city’s parks, urban gardens and greenways, and infrastructures of water, transportation, and communication are integral to the making of the urban places we inhabit. In this course we examine how the architecture and design of cities is dependent on the underlying urban fabric by looking carefully at the forces that shape great urban spaces - the designers, the political players and the everyday urban dwellers. Contemporary projects ranging from The High Line in Manhattan to Germany’s
    Landschaftspark Duisburg-Nord are used as case-studies in conjunction with study of Boston’s historical and contemporary urban landscape. Students’ final projects for the course involve direct observation, analysis, and documentation of selected sites in Boston. Through the case studies and investigations in Boston, we critically assess the social, cultural, environmental, and economic factors that influence built and landscape fabric of cities and what the confluence of those underpinnings means for the future of the places where we live.
  

  • EDAD720 Integrated Systems 3cr

    Students explore strategies for enclosing buildings and examine how to integrate the building enclosure with its surrounding
    environment including framing, climate modification, and building services systems.

    Using their design from a prior studio as the basis for developing building enclosure systems, students will research and explore multiple building service/ environmental systems that compliment their design in a sustainable context. This exploration includes how evaluate, select and coordinate the structural framing and commonly used building service and environmental systems in association with the building envelope and it details.  Students use their projects to gain knowledge of these systems as well as discover how to coordinate the interface between dissimilar enclosure systems
  

  • EDAD752 Architectural Design VIII 6cr

    Students investigate multiple aspects of various building systems and regulatory requirement integration in the design process including structure, enclosure, environmental systems, codes, and material choices. 

    Prerequisites: EDAD-720  and EDAD-702

  

  • EDAD805 Professional Practice II 3cr

Among the topics addressed are basic business concepts for the successful operation of an architectural firm and office, project finance including accounting fundamentals, forms of business organization, employer-employee relationships, business taxation, project management, and managing risk and professional liability. This material is then viewed through
    the lens of the architect’s fiduciary responsibilities through design, on the jobsite, and in practice, and in relation to the issues of
    professional ethics and social and environmental responsibility.
  

  • EDAD808 Thesis II 6cr

    Thesis II is the second semester of the studio design work leading to the completion and final presentation of the thesis project.

  • HART680 Graduate Contemporary Art 3cr

    In this course we analyze selected contemporary artworks by applying concepts from writings of the twentieth and twenty-first centuries. Some of the assigned essays come from the fields of philosophy, psychology, literary criticism, and cultural studies but now have a far broader significance across the arts and humanities. We will consider to what degree this popularity is justified. Throughout the semester, students determine where these essays are most and least useful for thinking about their experience of contemporary art. Close reading and close viewing  enable students to come to understand the complexity of trying to translate one’s unstructured interactions with art into words-a different medium that often seems to promise greater communicability than the original imagery, object, act, performance, and so on.

  • HART780 Benchmark 3cr

    In one section of the course we will focus on our own personal history of creativity, as well as on recent theories of creativity. We will explore this topic from a practical, psychological, and philosophical point of view. In investigating individual characteristics of creativity, we will focus on creativity as an ongoing, multidimensional activity. 

    We will also investigate the history of the specific visual language each of us has chosen to engage in. This “influence” component includes looking at the work of other contemporary practitioners. We will focus on two artists (and an architect) to begin with, in order to lay a foundation for our approach: the painters Neo Rauch and Beatriz Milhazes (and the architect
    Jean Nouvel.) These three artists are in different ways addressing contemporary issues. The goal for this investigation is not only to sharpen attention and critical analysis, but to build vocabulary and framework for the exploration of our own work.
