ARCH 50611 - Download This Course, Spring 2007

This course explores the evolutionary roots of form and order in the built environment. While grounded in scientific evidence, a broad perspective of humanism is emphasized throughout, with discussions of how ideas, beliefs, experience, ideals, and human nature animate individuals and societies and thereby give form to the things they make.

About the School of Architecture

Traditional and classical architecture occupy a premier place in the University of Notre Dame School of Architecture. The first Catholic university in America to offer a degree in architecture, beginning in 1898, Notre Dame now boasts nationally-acclaimed undergraduate and post-graduate programs. Notre Dame architecture students learn not only the principles of designing and constructing buildings, but also the importance of enriching the identity and cohesiveness of the communities where they live and work.
