This course is offered to the student :Design of different projects that involve topical problems in urban design. Make a proposal for developing or designing an urban area and planning a territory where a synthesis is required between a range of design, planning and environmental objectives. Advanced investigation into problems of analysis and evaluation of the design of urban areas, spaces and complexes with emphasis on the principles and methods of site analysis.Course Objectives :-To give students experience of working on an important design and planning project of current significance.-To gain a deeper experience of the role of design skills on urban design projects.-To develop skills in group work.-To give students experience of survey and analysis and of developing agendas for change.-To develop an understanding of the relationships between urban morphology and behavior..

This course provides the student with a study and analysis of the buildings of the transportation sector of various types (land, sea, and air), with standards and requirements that keep pace with their development. These facilities provide a distinguished service to their users as an important and vital means of shortening distances and delivering travelers and goods from one place to another in a short period of time if compared to the recent past.The variety of services provided through means of transportation, as well as the tremendous development in the manufacture of its means of transport, including the latest aircraft, ships, yachts, high-speed trains, and buses, posed a challenge for architects and engineers to keep up with it by developing design methods in a way that suits these successive developments, in a way that supports the comfort of users in all these different atmospheres. The course is an introduction to how to design the buildings of the transportation sector and covers the most important considerations, influences and standards that must be taken into account when designing buildings and facilities of this type. The course consists of two parts: the theoretical part, and the practical part.

This course teaches the student the process of drawing architectural maps. And qualifying him for the design process and knowing how to read architectural paintings from horizontal plans, facades and a sector. In addition to a general site. The student is also taught to make an architectural model that includes the details in the model.

1- To introducestudents to architectural design process and utilize design principles in composition. 2- To introduce students to site analysis and it’s influence on the architectural product. 3- To understand functional relationships and program built up. 4- To understand basic structural concepts and building material effect on architectural form. 5- To train students on presentation of architectural concept in a professional manner.

This course provides the student with the study and analysis of art and the history of architecture throughout the prehistoric, Mesopotamian, Persian, Pharaonic, Chinese, Greek, Roman, Byzantine, Romanesque, Gothic, Renaissance, Rococo, Baroque, and colonial eras, identifying architectural values and ideas in ancient civilizations, and studying its social, economic, environmental and religious surroundings.

The course presents to student method of perspective drawing (convert two-dimensional vision or drawing into three-dimensional drawing and representation).The purpose of this course also is to study the shadow of the point, the shadow of the lines, the shadow levels of the space and the objects, the shadows on the two-dimensional and three-dimensional building.▪ Learn how to draw and use different drawing tools.▪ Learn how to draw a perspective with vanishing point and convert two-dimensional drawing into three-dimensional drawing.▪ Able to architectural rendering of different type of perspective▪ Able to perspective construction and artistic rendering elements for architectural drafting by using ink and color pencils…▪ Able to draw shadows projection on two dimensions buildings, shade and shadows on three dimensions buildings.

Apply design knowledge to an architectural problem at a basic level. Evaluate the relationship of a selected range of technical, programmatic, theoretical, historical and professional issues and their implications for building design.Synthesize a body of practical and theoretical knowledge into the design process.Comprehend architecture and its relationship with location, program, form and representation.Demonstrate design skills through an iterative and considered design process, to resolve the ideas from concept formation through to design development at a basic level.Communicate design ideas at a basic level, demonstrating through building design & its representation, the aims & claims that made for the building design.

Many modern buildings do not perform well and require extensive use of mechanical systems in order to create a habitable, comfortable condition, which consumes energy. This raises the question of what type of architecture is needed to take proper consideration of environmental principles and the nature of the place. The course will introduce a strategy for implementing Sustainable Design (with more focus on climatic design) in the context of environmentally friendly goals, improved indoor environment, and innovation within the design process

Studying the climatic cultural characteristics, as well as the natural features and their impact on crystallizing the local architecture style of the place in the different environmental regions, the coastal environment, the mountainous environment and the desert environment.
