Course Description
The course is designed to prepare students for leadership in a globally interdependent and culturally diverse workforce. Throughout the course, students are challenged to question, think, and respond thoughtfully to the issues they observe and encounter in the internship setting, and the designated city in general. Students have the opportunity to cultivate the leadership skills of problem-solving, deliberation, negotiation, teamwork, intercultural communication, and systems thinking. In addition, the virtual nature of the course, with classmates attending from different regions of the world, offers a unique opportunity for cross-cultural comparative analysis. This is a hybrid course, with both online and in-person components. Online components include instructor led webinars, video lectures, discussion forums, assignments, and readings. Face-to-face elements of the course include local events, site visits, workshops, guest speakers, and participation in a prearranged internship, where students are required to work approximately 280-320 internship hours over the 8-week term.

Course Description
The class examines and analyzes current trends in interior design and successful interior design examples. It assesses current display designs and proposes suggestions, based on evidence-based design. Students learn to apply selection of colors, materials, and finishes to appropriately convey the design concept, and to meet psychological satisfaction of the space users. They learn from practitioners about interior display and coordination and learn to communicate with space users and design professionals and propose better display and interior coordination for the client and users. Textbook: John Pile, INTERIOR DESIGN.

Course Description
This course reviews current technologies on digital fabrication and explores emerging technologies for design and data integration, management, and exchange. Design and construction industries are undergoing dramatic changes, based on evolving technologies such as BIM, Web, Mobile IT and production technologies such as 3d printing. It provides a review of the field from the earliest days of CAD, through the current period using object-relational databases such as ISO-STEP technologies. The course does not make assumptions regarding student's background in detailed information technology per se, but does assume background in design applications, and some knowledge of computing software in order to digitally and physically fabricate actual products. The course explores various applications and hardware for digital fabrication, as well as reviewing current industry issues. Each student is asked to play significant roles in individual project works and final project collaborations, using at least some of followings: Grasshopper, Dynamo, Revit, BIM, Parametric Design, 3d Printing, Robot Arm, Arduino, Computer Programming such as Java, Phython, Processing, etc. Assessment: Midterm Project and/or Exam (20%), Final Project and/or Exam (20%), Assignments (20%), Attendance (20%), Class Participation (20%)

Course Description

In recent decades, a growing interest in material cultures and the sociology of space has elevated the status of architecture in sociological discussions. This seminar examines how different architectural forms take part in a range of different social practices. To what extent are they part of social practices, support or suppress them? The course adopts a simple scheme of spatial directions to discuss forms of enclosure (prisons), verticality (skyscrapers), liminality (borders), flows (logistics), etc.
