At this point in the curriculum, the students have completed all of their structuraldesign courses, but have not yet dealt with studio projects beyond the schematic design phase.Fig 1: Oklahoma State University - Architectural Engineering majors Curriculum ChartThis studio is team taught by four faculty members (two architects, one environmental controlsand one structural) and has been structured to give the students an experience similar to whatwill be experienced in practice upon graduation. The course is structured so the schematic,design development, and construction documents phases are explored during the semester.During these three phases, each student acts as their own design firm where they deal with

and design principles that need to be mastered in structuraldesign. However when the theories are exemplified in a virtual environment with multimedia,animation, interaction, and manipulated image visualization techniques in a virtual realityenvironment, students' conceptual understanding are enhanced.Visualization has always been an important aspect in the construction industry and constructioneducation has always laid stress on that aspect. Design professionals and educators used drawingas a practical tool for seeing, thinking and understanding their ideas, and for communicatingthem to others. In education, drawing was often woven tightly into curriculum and it wasexpected to play a major role in developing students’ visual abilities

” (AED) is addressedthrough an online survey of representative faculty at ABET accredited Architectural Engineeringschools. The faculty are first characterized in multiple ways: university, academic rank, years ofexperience, registration status and discipline. The results of their open-ended definition of AEDare examined using eight categories derived from the responses rated on 1-5 Likert scales, withthe analysis broken down using the same faculty characterization. Faculty opinions about thedisciplines necessary to include in AED are also analyzed. Overall there is general agreementthat disciplinary “skills” are an important part of AED as are, to a lesser extent, the “products”produced. There is some agreement about the idea of “integration

designer to integrate the sick building syndrome in the building design: A number of rules should be developed to integrate expertise from different professional concerned with indoor air quality and sick building syndrome, using a questionnaire and face-to-face interviews. The sick building syndrome is a multidisciplinary problem since the causes of sick building syndrome are multiple, such as, contamination (inside and outside), material used to construct the building (formaldehyde, fiberglass), inadequate ventilation, hypersensitivity pneumonitis, cigarette smoking, humidity, noise and illumination, scabies, and other unknown syndrome. An interprofessional experience in different fields such as

© American Society for Engineering Education, 2006 Teaching Dynamics of Cultural Dimensions In Design To Create Sustainable Environment: A Cross-Cultural Comparison Of ArchitectureAbstract Sustainable design is the concept that recognizes human civilization as an integral part ofthe natural world, and that nature must be preserved if the human community itself is to survive.Cultural dimensions of design are the tangible and intangible aspects of cultural systems that arevalued by or representative of, a given culture and reflected in the built environment [12]. Therewas no existing course in our curriculum to cover the topic of culture and design. Therefore, it isnecessary to develop a new

learned structures knowledge to projects in the design studio. This paper posits that the application of structural knowledge in design studio is essential to an integrated design approach and as such, the structures curriculum should be directly linked to individual studio projects. Through analysis of the structural debates listed above, the paper discusses flexible curriculum components and multiple half-term courses to suit the needs of individual student schedules and correspondence to design studios. It also discusses strategies toward developing studio links that reinforce the design of structural systems from the concept phase of a project.Structures and the ArchitectArchitects do not strive to

For example, For example, David Scheer 30, of the Center for Integrated Design andConstruction at the University of Utah College of Architecture + Planning proposed an approachthat utilized BIM across the curriculum in design studios, technical classes, and in culturalsubjects such as architectural history. The Civil and Environmental Engineering Department atWorcester Polytechnic Institute has integrated BIM into student research projects and graduatethesis, and have also integrated it in multiple undergraduate courses. Benefits to studentsidentified by faculty included the development of and integrated view of a building and itscomponents, better understanding of the construction process, advanced skill

in undergraduate student retention. Where innovation spaces help foster entrepreneurship and industry partnerships, research spaces play an integral and direct role in classwork. They help turn the theoretical into the physical, and allow lower-level students to translate book learning into hands-on exploration and imagination along with the opportunity to help solve real-world challenges at both local and global scales. These spaces also encourage collaboration among students and faculty and help break down barriers both within the hierarchy of a single field and across engineering disciplines. For faculty, they also accommodate a growing interest in continuing research and engaging with students in hands-on work to complement

future capacity needs for peaking power plants.I. IntroductionA common difficulty amongst academic engineering programs is the minimal amount ofcoursework that makes a solid connection to industry applications. Upper level coursesshould ease the transition from the university to the work place environment. There are sev-eral program models that ease the transition by exposing students to the industry environmentduring their education.One program model provides students the opportunity to observe professionals in the work-place. Another program allows students to work in the engineering industry as part of theircourse curriculum. A third program model tells students to take time off from school towork independently for an industry partner1. With

We presented the results ofcomparison between the two codes.This design class has been positively accepted by the students, and has provided them with acomprehensive experience in both design and systems integration. Students are required to usemultiple codes and make the comparison between several designs and codes. Finally, it providesthe students an opportunity to improve their skills in both written and oral communication.References: 1) Alfred

Theflexibility of this model can also be applicable to other fields of study aside from civilengineering along with other structures and construction methods aside from the Devon House.Digital modeling in this way can thus be used in a variety of educational circumstances in thearchitectural field, and may be a critical process for helping architecture curriculums moveforward. Indeed, this practice is an important part of professional education in architecture andcivil engineering, and bringing
