    The Capstone course will challenge students with a self-directed project that addresses an issue or problem in the Built Environment. This issue or problem they address should be derived from the coursework they have taken for their chosen area of exploration. PRECEDENT | the importance of research: To understand a problem, you must first understand the history and culture of the material you are working with. To do this, we explore the past ' projects, ideas, books, papers.PROGRAM | defining the problem: Before we can design, we have to define a goal by understanding who we are designing for and what are their needs ITERATION | designing a solution: For your final project, you will pursue a project that can address the problem you identified in your research. Prerequisites: Full Major status in Architecture
