Architectural Design V

Architectural Design V integrates several architectural and engineering design philosophies and methodologies into a comprehensive studio project. This course introduces very little new material; rather, it is to synthesize knowledge learned in the following areas of design and analysis: architecture, structure, construction, site, energy (mechanical/electrical) and building systems, and cost estimating. This multidisciplinary project does not use a student design team approach but includes a required practicum designed to provide extra time for the studio experience.

​APPLIED LEARNING: PRACTICUM
This course provides real-world experiences in which you
apply theoretical/technical concepts or skills and cultural
competency relevant to your education.

As an Applied Learning Course, all applied learning components must be successfully completed to receive course credit. 

Type of Course:

  • This Applied Learning Practicum course is required for B.S. Architectural Engineering Technology majors and fulfills the 10 hours of applied learning required for graduation.

  • ARC 486 is a studio-based course with whole-class, group, or individual meetings.

  • ARC 486 is not a General Education course.

  • ARC 486 is the final course in the Architectural Engineering Technology program and is taken in the student’s last semester in this program.

​Course Learning Outcomes:

  • Utilize and apply materials learned in the program in a real-life project(s)

  • Apply creativity in the design of systems and components

  • Function effectively in teams

  • Communicate design effectively graphically and orally

  • Show commitment to quality, timeliness, and continuous improvement

Program/ABET Student Learning Outcomes:

  • SO1. An ability to apply knowledge, techniques, skills, and modern tools of mathematics, science, engineering, or technology to solve broadly-defined engineering problems

  • SO 2. An ability to design systems, components, or processes meeting specified needs for broadly defined engineering problems appropriate to Architectural Engineering Technology

  • SO 4. An ability to function effectively as a member or leader of a technical team

Assessed:

  • SO 5. An ability to apply written, oral, and graphical communication in both technical and non-technical environments; and an ability to identify and use appropriate technical literature

  • Performance Indicator: Students will be able to apply oral communication to present their technical project

  • Method of Assessment: Oral and graphical presentation of a final project.

Google Design Center:

The primary objective of this project is to design an innovative technology office center, store, gallery, and café tailored for Google at Two Garner Lane, Bay Shore, NY. The project aims to create a modern, site-specific architectural solution with a clear concept, featuring a green roof café and at least two other sustainable building/site features. Additionally, the design must prioritize interactive community spaces while providing functional areas for employees to work individually and collaboratively. The project will adhere to zoning regulations, integrate green building practices, and incorporate comprehensive site planning to maximize efficiency and environmental responsibility. Ultimately, the goal is to deliver a comprehensive architectural solution that reflects the client's vision, enhances the local environment, and contributes positively to the community.
