Upon completion of this course, students will be able to apply theoretical knowledge and design abilities to the development of an architectural project of high programmatic complexity, with a strong influence of the urban context, in order to develop critical judgment and the capacity to explore and innovate through the architectural proposal, without overlooking the research, application, and implications of aspects such as the structural criteria, materials technology, and energy efficiency.

Upon completion of this course, students will be able to apply theoretical knowledge and design abilities to the development of architectural projects of low and medium programmatically complexity, in order to perceive the architectural object as a habitable space, thus developing critical judgment and the capacity to explore and innovate in terms of the architectural proposal, without overlooking research and incorporation of a structural criterion or the influence of the construction materials.

Upon completion of this course, students will be able to identify and analyze the development of architecture in Euro-Asian cultures, covering the Middle and Far East, the Greek-Roman world, and Christianity up to the end of the 17th century, with the purpose of developing critical judgment to understand the events that led to the transformation of world architecture.

Upon completion of this course, students will be able to identify the logical-expressive tools and methods applied to space representation processes as well as to processes used to represent basic architectural objects, from the inception of an idea until the project's definition, in order to develop the ability to select adequate methods, techniques, and tools for the architectural representation in all the stages of the design process.

Upon completion of this course, students will be able to comprehend and explain the principles of architectural composition, with the aim of exploring the interrelationship between each of its elements, addressing functional needs and needs concerning structural criteria.
