Description

The Faculty of Environmental Design offers programmes in four areas: Architecture, Planning, Industrial Design, and Environmental Sciences. In the two decades since the founding of the Faculty, the nature and scope of its activities have developed widely and deeply, in concert with the growing concerns about the environment and its qualities, and with the extended complexity of the environmental issues. Attention in design is increasingly given to the appropriate ends, the just and equitable modes of intervention, and the qualitative character of environment to be achieved when management, planning and design projects are undertaken. In these respects, the Faculty's research, educational programs and outreach service variously touch on natural, social, cultural and built environments. Its ultimate concerns are for the quality of human life and sustainability.
