The continuously evolving definition of ?architecture? and the ways we challenge the physical environment guide fundamental principles of the Applied Studies program at SCI-Arc.

To stay current with the technologies that redefine architecture as a discipline and a practice, unique workshops are coordinated each quarter with leading engineers, technologists, and architects. The guest roster includes figures such as Christiane Sauer who works in advanced materials and Transsolar climate engineering; Mark Fahlbusch of structural engineering firm Bollinger Grohmann; and architect and roboticist Gilles Retsin.
