Special English-Language Urban Design Architecture CourseArchitecture & Urban Design PrCourse Introductionhe Global 30 Architecture and Urban Design Course (G30) at the University of Tokyo is dedicated to interdisciplinary design research which connects architecture, engineering, and computations to explore the ecosystems of architecture and built environments. We seek to develop and speculate upon new knowledge for architecture where the practice of design engages in both social constructs and material performances on a number of scales. Our goal is to redene the role of architecture as the essential element for theorizing, conceptualizing, analyzing, forming, organizing, and generating new ideas of and for sustainable future-built environments.To maximize the potential of the advanced research laboratories at the University of Tokyo’s Engineering School, our design projects are pursued in collaboration with specialized engineers and researchers to promote a creative environment where ideas are tested with matter and information. Simultaneously, we make analog models, digital simulations, and manipulate local molecular behaviors that make up the lifelike processes of city organizations. The focuses of our research include the development of comprehensive design proposals and explorations of the interconnectivity of urban systems based on the movement of matter, energy, and information. Our research systematically examines and speculates on the rapidly emerging and evolving contemporary built environment and its design challenges through both theoretical and specic architectural design investigations leading to a rigorous design thesis project.Prototyping Architecture is a design research agenda which explores the generation of new models of and for architecture and urbanism. It is structured as a two-phase course; the rst year studio as Digital Fabrication Lab and the second year studio as Sustainable Prototyping Lab. TPrototyping ArchitecturePrototyping Architecture is a design research agenda explored within G30 Architecture and Urbanism. New students are introduced to a series of contemporary design methodologies using both computational design tools and analog material experimentations. Sustainability and ecology are addressed through theoretical and technical enquiries.07 | Global 30 Master’s Global 30 Special English Course ResearchAgenda
