Master of Architecture:
Architecture, which is the most demanding of the contemporary disciplines, has both an obvious artistic component and also less obvious, but not less essential, scientific component. Our responsibility to improve the quality of life also beacons us to develop scientific and mathematically based methods of design of Thermal, Luminous, Acoustic and Aqueous environments. The Energy and Environmental issues have brought a new dimension to this process.
Master of Architecture course was introduced in 2006 as an outcome of years studies in the field of energy conservation. This unique course deals with various analysis techniques for climate responsive architecture.
