Architecture itself works as a device to control the environment such as light, sound, heat and air-flow. Before modern times, buildings and cities fit to the climate and the environment had been build by the prodigious builders. After Industrial revolution, mechanical systems such as lighting, heating and cooling, ventilation, elevator etc. by using energy had expanded the human life area drastically, at the same time architecture had changed to take in those machines. The problem of finiteness of resources in the earth had required the architecture to have the view point of total sustainability such as energy-saving, reduction of CO2, environmental friendliness. After Great East Japan Earthquake 3.11, BCP(Business Continuity Plan) for energy supply stop and rethinking of energy resource such us abandoning nuclear power has been required when we design the architecture. We now try to realize "Smart City" in which we think architecture not only as a simple building but also as a network of buildings in the cities, also as a device to encourage human behavior change. In this class, learn about the background, theory, methods and examples of architecture as device to control the environment.
The lecture is taught in German
Arts and architecture are the basis of life as well as political and economic activities. Over the course, we will discuss not only the history of fine art and architecture, but also the issues in environment or エンバイラメント that we need to address for our lives.
The purpose of this lecture is to provide students with concepts and methodologies to design building that can create a comfortable environment with low impact to the environment. The students will learn about relationship between each technology and its impact to architectural/urban space. The lecture will mainly focus on case studies and group discussion to give better understanding along with slide lecture as a basis of the discussion. The slide lecture will provide an international perspective as well as local practice to give a big picture of each technology, and the actual project example to give practical understanding.
The history of architecture is defined by the history of technology. The so-called Modernist age of architecture and urban planning was only possible because of the advent of new technologies related to steel, glass and concrete construction. New materials and techniques made it possible to build entirely novel buildings and spaces. Since that time technology has evolved continuously, which leads us to ask what is possible with the technologies available to us today?
This class brings together a group of leading structural engineers who are involved in the invention and development of new construction technologies, and uses their expertise to consider the connection between technology and the environment. Students can study real projects, examine their particular backgrounds, how the technology is used, and the potential for architecture and urban design.
Each student is expected choose a theme related to architectural technology and conduct research and analysis on the subject. The results of the research will then be presented at mid-term and in a final presentation.
This course covers building materials as the basis for architecture.
This is a practical course focused on digital design that is grounded in the particular culture of SFC. With the ongoing progress in digital communication media in architecture and urbanism, programmable 3D data has become a comprehensive tool for sharing ideas. Consequently it has a strong impact on the design, construction and utilization of the ideas. It is used in many ways, including the visualization of complex topology and geometry, the simulation of environmental factors, the materialization of unique shapes and tectonics through digital fabrication, navigation of the vast design space that comes from algorithmic design methodology, adaptation to dynamic environments, and the interaction with human behavior through digital sensing technology.The objective of this studio is firstly to realize the practical potential of computational design methods using these technologies. Secondly it is to build a concrete skill set through a hands-on working method.
Artificial intelligence may have a great impact on society in the future. In order to understand capabilities and limits of artificial intelligence, it is necessary to understand computers as its foundation.
In the first half of this course, we learn fundamental knowledge of practical usage of computers and networks in SFC. In the second half, we learn programming skills which are necessary to take advantage of computers.
After this course, you will be able to learn advanced programming skills in /Fundamentals of Information Technology 2/.

In this class, students are expected to study about basic statistics by analyzing data empirically. Basic techniques such as data collection, statistical analysis and presentation are introduced.
Lectures include (1) description of data such as average, variance and correlation, (2) basics of probability theories such as population and samples, stochastic distributions and sample distributions, and (3) statistical models such as regression analysis and analysis of variance.
Lecturers might change contents of syllabus.
Theories of international relations are discussed.
In this seminar, we will deal with the German language media landscape, in the areas of print, tv/radio and online. Focus is on improvement of reading and writing skills as well as systematic enlargement of vocabulary. Topics will be selected in cooperation with participants.
