Detailed profiles of schools for Environmental Architecture from the EdRef college search portal.
Environmental Architecture programs emphasize the planning, design, and management of environmental systems as relating specifically to architecture. This is usually a graduate degree for students who have earned a bachelor's degree in architecture, landscape architecture, or urban studies. The type of structural design studied may include such sites as golf courses, surface mining operations, or therapeutic buildings. Beyond traditional architecture, environmental architecture examines larger political, social, economic, aesthetic, and technical factors that affect our surroundings.
Many programs are interdisciplinary in their approach to the subject, encouraging a broad range of research topics. Students are asked to use a wide range of methodologies and tools to accomplish their research. Students may study the theory and history of architecture, architectural criticism, design methods, contemporary architecture, globalization, urban geography, mapping methods, digital media, motion picture documentation, and network geography.
