Research seminar giving focus to new technologies, especially complex structures: biotechnic, pneumatic, ultra-tall, composite structures, etc. Prerequisite (s): ARCH 201 and ARCH 230 and ARCH 202. This course is designed to help students learn and use tools and frameworks to create, implement, and update a strategic plan to shape the future and guide an entrepreneurial organization on its path to success. Full Story, Mahjoub Elnimeiri and Jong Soung Kimm, both longtime faculty members at IIT College of Architecture, will lead two honorary lectures about Arthur S. Takeuchi (B.ARCH 54, M.S. The study of the relationship between ideas, form and physical making integral to the production process, through repetition and variation.
