Description

Throughout the programme three interconnecting areas of digital architecture are examined in order to develop a strong understanding of the theory base as well as practical experience and skills in the use, customisation and development of information and communication technologies. The areas of study are: computer-based modelling and visualisation; computer-based simulations; and human-computer interaction and communication in pervasive computing contexts.

Compulsory modules (100 credits) typically cover: architecture in the information age; emergent digital design methods; 3D modelling and visualisation; interactive space design; guided specialist study; research methods. Finally you complete an individual research project (80 credits).
