Course description

This course is one of a suite of elective Architectural Research courses that provide an opportunity to develop research skills and specialist knowledge in the area of Architectural History and Theory. ARCH7082 focuses on topics relating to architectural heritage and conservation that may include: analysis of the conceptual frameworks, strategies and techniques for the documentation and conservation of significant buildings and sites; analysis of the policy frameworks through which architectural heritage is evaluated and managed; and the exploration of adaptive re-use design principles. Research may be undertaken through: literature review; the collection and study of archival material; fieldwork to document buildings and sites including through digital processes; the formulation of written arguments or reports, and the preparation of design proposals and management plans for the conservation and re-use of buildings and sites with recognised heritage value. Students will be part of a cohort working closely with an academic or practitioner experienced in the field with research topics grounded in real world engagement with research partners from industry, government, cultural organisations and allied research groups. This course may not be available every semester. Please consult the School of Architecture for semester availability including Summer Semester and intensive coursework offerings. This course may be offered as a single topic or multiple topics depending on the availability of subject experts and academics.
