Students will be able to display the coherent way in which they can use conventional and artistic methods of representation to explore and reveal present or imagined reality; this contributes to the learning outcomes reference network:
Express an architectural procedure
  • Be familiar with, understand and use the codes for representing space, in two and three dimensions
  • Convey the experience of spatiality in all its complexity by observing it and posing questions
  • Identify the founding elements of a hypothesis or a proposal to express and communicate them
  • Test and use relevant means of communication in relation to the intended audience and the target objectives
  • Express ideas clearly in oral, graphic and written form
In Brussels, students will also be assessed on the following specific learning outcomes:
  • Students will be able to display the coherent way in which they can activate their knowledge and their critical stance in relation to tools for expression/representation in the discipline.
  • Students will be able to display the coherent way in which they can activate and complete an individual project, to reconstruct it and take a critical view of the reconstruction, whilst aware of the disciplinary field involved in the project.
These two specific learning outcomes contribute to the learning outcomes reference network:
Build knowledge of architecture
  • Be familiar with and analyse the discipline's basic references
Adopt a professional attitude
  • Organise, plan, develop and bring together the different strands of individual work
