Objectives of Programme's Learning Outcomes

• Instruct an architectural issue
• Study the different components of a theme to articulate its findings in a comprehensive summary
• Build an architectural culture based on theoretical and critical knowledge and personal reading
• Coordinate the various disciplines related to architecture and urban planning transversely
• Contextualise their approach to architecture
• Develop teamwork
• Develop a spatial response
• Master the means of oral, written and graphic expression
• Develop a creative approach from a set of constraints
• Implement an identified spatial response
• Adopt an applied scientific approach
• Integrate technical dimensions in the project
• Reconcile the creative and functional dimensions in the project
• Interact with all actors
• Master the different means of expression available to the architect to communicate to informed publics, or not
• Develop a professional attitude
• Integrate and work in a team
• Integrate the different expectations of stakeholders related to architecture and urban planning
• Make choices
• Demonstrate reflexivity, openness and initiative

Learning Outcomes of UE

-Introduction to the concept of geometric three-dimensional modeling and semantic modeling applied to architecture field
-Presentation and experimentation of optimized uses, the contributions and limitations of these tools in the practice of architecture
-Awareness of the concept of digital modeling and collaborative design Integration of digital tools in architectural design process and particularly the sensitive dimension of the project
-Create a continuity between the conventional expression means and the digital ones Acquire skills on views creation, lightening, texturing and rendering (fixed and animated ones)
-Develop one feedbacks and critical reviews about virtual reality tools and haw they can influence design practice and projects involvement.

Overview of functions and uses of each technique :
<b>SketchUp
-</b>Interface and use process of the tool
-Creating and editing objects
-Managing objects Modeling process
