The School addresses many complex issues: organisation, spatial, formal and material expression, technology and the balance between internal and external environments. Only an architect is trained to have this holistic understanding of building design and its study involves a combination of analysis, understanding and problem solving. All year 5 students’ work is based on unit specialisms: urban, technology, social architecture and building regeneration. Thesis projects are based in Dundee.
