Thesis Studio 1

The final year of the MArch Program is centred on an individual design proposition by each student. This follows extensive experience in group work and collaboration with other students and communities. Thesis Studio 1 is where students develop a research hypothesis and test it through the cyclical and iterative actions of thinking and making. Written research and design research are encouraged to reinforce each other rather than to be viewed in a linear sequence. Students are expected to form their Thesis Committee during this course. PREREQ: ARCH 5505 or ARCH 5515 (design studio inst, lec, sem), cr 6 (Design Stream).
