ARCH 4895:Computational Methods Advanced Generative-Analytical Technologies in Architecture

3 Credit Hours
This course introduces students to computational thinking and the fundamental concepts of computation through explorations with generative scripting and parametric tools. The goal is to understand the potential of computation and the role it can play as part of one’s design process, not as a collection of specific tools, but as a way of thinking about design. By the end of the semester, students will have the vocabulary and an understanding of computing that will inform their future explorations with more advanced tools and technologies.
