University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA), Los Angeles, CA, US, Bachelors, Architecture and Urban Design
This undergraduate major features coursework in three areas: critical studies, technology and design. The critical studies sequence builds a foundation in critical thinking that engages historical and contemporary disciplinary contexts. These critical thinking skills drive the technology sequence with assignments that question emerging technologies, conventional and innovative material assemblies, and the role of architectural representation. Critical thinking is also practiced in the design studio with assignments that introduce longstanding disciplinary questions, engage the social role of architecture, and respond to particular audiences, geographic contexts, and programmatic activities.
University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA), Los Angeles, CA, US, Bachelors, Public Affairs
