School of Architecture: Courses of Instruction
2008-2009 Academic Year
156
The School of Architecture offers courses in ten subject areas: architectural
design, history and theory, technological systems, landscape, urban studies,
professional concerns, digital media, visual media, special topics and preservation
studies. A limited number of courses are open only to architecture students; yet
most other architecture courses, many of which fulfill undergraduate core
curriculum requirements in the humanities, fine arts, social sciences and physical
sciences, may be taken by students in other Tulane divisions. Areas of instruction
that include required courses list required courses before electives. Generally, in
the University, courses numbered 100-199 are primarily for first year students;
200-299, second year students, and so on. 600 level courses are advanced study
courses yet can be either undergraduate or graduate level. 700 level courses are
for graduate students only. Not all elective courses listed in this catalog are
offered every semester.
The amount of credit awarded for successful completion of each course is
indicated in parentheses after the course title. An "R" or "E" in brackets after the
credits, designates whether a course is required or elective [R: Required; E:
Elective]. Courses with [R, E] designations are those which fulfill a course
requirement for the architectural major yet can also be taken as an open
architectural elective.
The full-time permanent faculty is listed below. The faculty is augmented by
visiting instructors of national or international reputation and local architectural
practitioners.
