Competencies and objectives

 

Course context for academic year 2013-14

Los Planes de Estudios de la Titulación de Arquitecto no contemplan, salvo raras excepciones y siempre a través de las asignaturas optativas y/o los créditos de libre configuración, la formación del Arquitecto en cuanto posible y futuro investigador y, sin embargo, la actividad investigadora constituye un pilar básico de nuestro quehacer, tanto en el ejercicio profesional (todo proyecto merecedor de este nombre debería conllevar una investigación, no sólo metodológica disciplinar, sino también y además, sobre el lugar en el que asienta y sus preexistencias, visibles e invisibles), como, evidentemente, en la docencia.

Asumiendo, por tanto, esta situación, la formación investigadora se ha reservado, tradicionalmente, a los estudios de postgrado, razón por la cual comparece, en este programa de Máster, la oferta de esta asignatura, que básicamente pretende familiarizar a los arquitectos con la disciplina de la investigación, sus planteamientos, sus métodos, sus fórmulas, sus estructuras y sus posibles canales tanto de plasmación de resultados como de difusión de los mismos.

General Competences (CG)

  • G1 : Understand the scientific method by carrying out experimental tasks that follow the different stages explicitly: observation, analysis and data gathering, evaluation, comparison of results and conclusions. Capacity to use the scientific method to carry out research.
  • G10 : Capacity to relate and group the different factors involved in Architecture and Town Planning, paying attention to their types and possibilities, recognising the social, cultural, artistic and architectural values of the same.
  • G2 : Capacity to study, understand and objectively criticise scientific-technical databases and publications.
  • G5 : Capacity to analyse, evaluate and innovate in architectural work from the point of view of sustainability.
  • G8 : Capacity to transfer and apply scientific methods to academic, professional and research work, as well as propose new ways of working in the field of Architecture and Town Planning.
  • G9 : Capacity to gather and interpret significant data to give opinions that include critical and innovative reflection.

 

Specific Competences (CE)

  • E1 : Ability to understand architecture on its multiple social and cultural levels.
  • E2 : Ability to propose alternatives to events and types that respond to urban demands.
  • E3 : Ability to establish strategies for the reconnaissance, conservation and reuse of events.
  • E4 : Ability to transfer analyses and studies to specific documents for real management and application.
  • E5 : Ability to identify a relevant design situation to be analysed, implementing a solution to an environmental mission or problem.
