Architecture is one of the most universal fields of learning, concerning the creation of housing and living facilities that are essential for human life. In order to respond to contemporary global problems, it is necessary not only to study the basic fields of architecture (design and planning, structural engineering, and environmental engineering) but to combine these fields in response to spatial design issues. By providing education that is both comprehensive and specialized, the Department of Architecture aims to produce talented individuals who can respond to contemporary architectural challenges.
