During the second year of the Master in Advanced Architecture + Thesis Project (MAA02), students have the unique opportunity to work for a period of 1 year on an Individual Thesis Project, focused on the development of a research or pilot project based on the student’s interest, and the learnings of the first year. IAAC supports the student in selecting their Thesis Project topic in order to better orient them according to their future career interests and opportunities. Each student, according to their specific topic, is assigned one or more Thesis Advisors that follow the development of the work throughout the year.

In parallel to the development of the Individual Thesis Project, the second year of the MAA02 offers a series of seminars enhancing the theoretical, practical and computational skills of the students.

Oxpecker

Data-driven designers want to consider wind flow in their design process but resort to simulating end-stage designs with free but time-consuming tools or delegate it to experts. While expensive software offers relatively faster results, the cost doesn’t justify the number of simulations. Those mindful of expenses are always willing to sacrifice accuracy during the design … Read more
