20.301 Material Computation: Advanced Topics in Geometry and Matter

Students enrolled will gain insight into synthetic design processes and build up on the foundational skills taught in ASD core subjects including, computational geometry, computational structural analysis, experimental optimization, and digital fabrication. Students will be expected to complete a design project and a design report which demonstrates their understanding of the relationship between geometry and matter and their ability to creatively interpret analytical information.

Pre-requisites: 20.211 Introduction to Design Computation, 20.202 Architectural Structure and Enclosure Design, 20.212 Digital Design and Fabrication, 20.213 Building Information Modelling.
