Overall Educational Objective | To apprehend the relationship between urban scale and interior scale and to learn the tactical spatial values of interior elements and conditions of cities from interior perspective. | ||||
Course Description | This course is an introduction to interior urbanism. Students will look at the production methods, characteristics, creative use, diversity of materials and learn how to use surface materials in interiors. The course is divided into several modules which will be given by a lecturer from that field. |
Course Learning Outcomes and CompetencesUpon successful completion of the course, the learner is expected to be able to:1) understand the history of interior urbanism; 2) analyze spatial values of interior elements in urban scale; 3) display critical thinking, reading and writing. |

sezginah@mef.edu.tr Email: sezginah@mef.edu.tr Students are required to attend % 70 of the classes in theoretical courses. Consequently, absenteeism exceeding 4 weeks (classes) will result in failure. %70 Attendance is essential for this course. Most of the class time will be allocated to discussion of weekly topics. Students have to be prepared and upload their weekly assignments before coming to class late submissions take points off. All students are responsible for behaving personally and academically in a way that is expected from a university student. That behavior includes but is not limited to respecting views and ideas of peers; not being involved in discriminating behavior concerning race, religious beliefs, sexual orientation; always using one’s own ideas in their projects.
