ARC 1162 - CAMPUS-COMMUNITY WORKSHOP

Minimum Credits: 3
Maximum Credits: 3
Architects and designers have a vital role to play as thinkers and advocates who work with organizations and communities to help imagine ways to reshape the environments in which we live and interact. Over the course of the term, students will investigate the Pitt campus and surrounding Oakland neighborhoods, conduct original research using primary and secondary sources, and think critically and creatively about ways the environment can be shaped to make positive change. Each student will develop an original, written proposal for either [1] an intervention that responds to a need, enhances the experience of being at the university, or improves the quality of life on campus or in an adjacent neighborhood; or [2] a research project that could be continued in a subsequent term for independent study credit.
