ARC-120 Architecture History: 1880 - Present
Architectural History: 1880-Present focuses on major styles of the late 19th and 20th century and the architects who helped to define those styles. The course focuses on the symbiotic relationship between the built environment and culture. Students will learn about the various catalysts and historic contexts that resulted in the transition of styles, as well as the major historic movements that resulted in the international coordination of architects that have brought us to the current Modern Architecture styles of today. The course is appropriate for students studying architectural design and any students interested in architecture as a Humanities elective, including art and liberal art students. This course carries SUNY General Education Humanities credit.
