Requirements

The following courses will be offered to Fudan students from any discipline. The students should be Year 2 or above. Registration will be in person at the Shanghai Study Centre on a first come first serve basis. Each course is open to a maximum of 40 students per course. As the courses Visual Communications 2 and Building Technology 2 require certain technical skills, the selection of students will be subject to the agreement by the course teacher.

Course Title: History and Theory of Architecture 2

Subtitle: Global Perspectives 1

Course Number: ARCH2049

Teacher: Darren Zhou

Schedule: Thursdays, 9:30 am – 11:20 pm

Description: The purpose of this course is two-fold: 1) to introduce students to the development of major architectural ideas and a selected group of significant architectural monuments in Europe, the Middle East, North and South America, from ancient times to the nineteenth century, and the unique aesthetic, cultural, and historical issues that frame them; and 2) to present the main issues in the study of architecture and the various methods used to analyze and interpret buildings in various spatial and temporal contexts. Each lecture will address a different theme in the study of architectural history and theory, focusing on a few works of architecture chosen for their exemplary character.

Course Title: Visual Communications 2

Subtitle: Material Culture

Course Number: ARCH2045

Teacher: Nathan Melenbrink

Schedule: Wednesdays, 2:30 pm – 5.20 pm

Description: Visual Communications 2 focuses on digital modelling and fabrication. By manipulating and controlling information available in the public domain, models will be constructed to form a landscape out of the pre-existing mapped urban environment. Developing the information further, a three-dimensional computer model will be constructed to produce objects with a high degree of precision. By manufacturing the model from a series of computer controlled fabrication devices, including the CNC milling machine, the large-format laser cutter, and a three-dimensional starch printer, highly precise physical models will be produced.

Course Title: Building Technology 2

Subtitle: Building Structures

Course Number: ARCH2051

Teacher: Andrew Luong

Schedule: Fridays, 2.30pm – 5.20pm

Course Title: Contemporary issues in architecture and urbanism

Subtitle: Shanghai State of Affairs

Teacher: Bert de Muynck

Schedule: Tuesdays, 2.30 pm – 5.20 pm & Saturdays, 10.30 am – 12.20 pm

Description: "Shanghai State of Affairs" is a series of ten public discussions on the state of the city. The objective is to bring together a wide group of architects, urbanists and stakeholders that day-to-day work in the city of Shanghai. Each session will be centered around a theme such as history; environment; heritage; growth; density; industrialization; culture; or leisure. The nature of the discussion will function as a test ground to develop new ideas about the city, as well gain further knowledge from its urban and architectural development by focusing on those working on it day in and day out. The idea was born out of the need to more closely monitor the metropolitan development and find an immediate way to discuss this.

Course Title: Designing the City

Teachers: Pascal Berger/Elena Perez/Xiao Zhu

Schedule: Thursdays, 5.30pm-6.20pm

Description: Dovetailing with the core Year 2 design studio these lectures will focus on key themes affecting the growth or shrinkage of contemporary cities using international examples. Each teacher has expertise in working in international contexts that deal with very different issues affecting the city from the extreme condition of abandonment in Detroit to regeneration in Zurich to densification in Holland. Each teacher has worked in these unique contexts and has developed design strategies that respond to these conditions. These projects will be presented and discussed.

Course Title: Plants & Planting Design 2 (6 credits)

Course Number: ARCH3039

Instructor: Mr. Justin Jencks

Schedule: Thursdays, 2.30 pm – 5.20 pm

Fudan Enrolment: 10 places

Prerequisites: 2nd year or Above & Introductory Ecology or Botany Courses

Contact Hours: 3 hrs x 12 Weeks, starting the week of 1 September 2013

The second course in Plants and Planting Design looks at the application of plant species in a variety of contexts. Planting design issues such as urban trees, thematic planting, ecological design and self-sustaining plant communities are introduced. It investigates advanced landscape planting techniques including vertical green wall systems, roof gardens, and amenity turf grass. Technical design considerations of contract documentation, plant specification, and quality control, are discussed. A detailed review is made of the horticultural nursery and landscape construction industries within the region, looking at practical issues of plant production, delivery and handling, site preparation, planting site construction, and horticultural maintenance. The course extends students’ understanding of plants and planting design, by examining issues within different climatic zones, building an understanding of plant distribution and use on a regional and global scale, developing a more contextual approach to plant species selection and planting design and working in unfamiliar environments. Coursework comprises technical design exercises, site visits, and study reports.

Course Title: Landscape & Design in China

Course Number: ARCH3042

Instructors: Mr. Steven Y. Chen & Ms. Dorothy Tang

Schedule: Wednesdays, 9.30 am – 12.20pm

Fudan Enrolment: 20 places

Prerequisites: 2nd year or Above

Contact Hours: 3 hrs x 12 Weeks, starting the week of 1 September 2013

This survey course will introduce contemporary design in China through landscape and related design fields. Students will be exposed to issues of culture, technology, consumption, the environment, rapid urbanization, and other contemporary or historic forces in China that shape the contemporary landscapes and related creative practices. Students engage with leading Chinese designers in each of the fields and study relevant contemporary projects to determine how issues of Chinese identity and community are being expressed and developed. This helps students to broaden their understanding of landscape design and introduces them to a wide range of new subjects, materials and techniques that can be used to inspire innovation and creativity in landscape design. Some topics include: the appropriation of the theories and symbolism of the Chinese garden tradition in contemporary landscape design; and landscape design in response to contemporary urban, environmental, economic, political and cultural forces in China. Coursework assessment comprises technical research studies, site visit reports, and written papers (up to 2,000 words).
