A requirement in the Professional Program in Sustainable Design

Translate your knowledge of sustainable design concepts into practical, deployable and tangible methods. Learn to take responsibility for your work by understanding the impact that your designs have on the environment and how to control this impact. Through research of materials, systems and construction methods, you explore ways to design and build in an environmentally responsible manner. Using case studies, look at how others are creating communities, solving economic problems and developing new solutions to design. Class involves lectures, discussions and student presentations exploring these ideas.
