2.1 Teaching Structures to ArchitectsThe teaching of structures is often viewed as marginal in the overall architecturecurriculum. The first author’s senior colleagues anecdotally report that they have seen thenumber, and level of complexity, of required structures courses decline over the course oftheir teaching careers. When surveyed on the first day of their first structures course, lessthan 30% of the architecture students of Syracuse University say they would take thecourse if it were not required. Our graduates will practice in a world of hyper-specialization and an ever more technologically complex environment. We must find anappropriate way to prepare them for both the status quo and the technical challenges yetto come. However, we

Students learn to understand aproblem, think about possible technical solutions, their complexities and cost associated witheach solution, choosing a solution with trade-off between competing demands. They also gothrough the process of implementing the project, testing the project to meet some specifications,and documenting the project for ease of understanding as well as further improvement. As such,the capstone project provides a complete engineering experience for the graduating studentswhich they can readily apply in their career

They are often required to acquire a new discipline-specific vocabulary – terminologythat will be used throughout their academic and professional career – and they are often notprepared for the amount of self-directed studying they must do to be successful.Students regularly overestimate their knowledge and abilities1. Accurate self-knowledge,defined as the ability to accurately judge one’s level of knowledge, is necessary at the collegelevel. Students must be able to recognize what they already know, but more importantly, whatthey do not know so they can take steps to ensure that their end knowledge meets instructor andcourse expectations2.
