CATALOGUE DESCRIPTION The practical application of theoretical learning within a group setting and involving an exchange of ideas and practical methods, skills, and principles. Students may take 497B/597B up to four times provided the topics are different. COURSE DESCRIPTION What we see, hear, and breathe affects our wellbeing. Consequently, designers have a profound impact on the people who inhabit their buildings. This course offers degree candidates experience in the scientific understanding needed to capitalize on advancements in design informed by research. Students who can not only understand, but translate existing research into practice will be more competitive in the market and have a larger impact on built environment outcomes. The course begins with a primer on scientific literacy in the context of design, followed by modules that dive into the physiology, psychology, and design implications related to our senses. Students will learn how to find and critique research that connects wellbeing outcomes with the built environment through written paper critiques in each module (Visual, Haptic + Aural, Olfactory, and Biophilia). At the end of each module, students will prepare a design implication strategy informed by the required readings and additional research articles. Finally, each student will prepare a final course project that critiques a current studio project or an existing built space on campus and makes design recommendations. This final project may be presented in the form of a slide deck, tailored as per the student's individual goals and expertise.
