Student Guidelines for the

Development and Implementation of the
Architecture Thesis Program:
Architectural Design 10
Background
The Architecture Thesis Program is composed of three parts, namely: Research Methods in
Architecture (RMA), Design 9 (AD9) and Design 10 (AD10). At the end of the program, the
Student should be able to:
• Propose a relevant, feasible, and creative architectural design solution to an existing physi-
cal problem;
• Apply the architectural design process in the development of their architectural design so-
lution; and
• Present and defend their architectural solution to the best of their ability.
Architectural Design 10
Design 10 is based on the premise that the student has completed and passed all the require-
ments of Design 9 and that the Thesis Book, which is its final output, has been endorsed by
the AD9 Adviser to be substantially complete in content and correct in style. This terminal
Architectural Design course involves the implementation of the AD9 output and preparation
for Thesis oral defense.
1.0 Scope of Works. The scope of works for AD10 includes the final review and approval
of final Design Development Plans, production of final presentation drawings, and de-
fense of the chosen design solution before the Thesis Jury.
2.0 Presentation Drawing Options. The rationale in providing presentation options is to

allow every student the liberty on how to visually present his design solutions given
the varying expansiveness of each and every project. However, legibility of drawings
is the most important consideration in deciding which presentation option is to be
used. Students are advised to discuss with their Advisers on what presentation option
works best for their projects.

2.1 Option A:
2.1.1 Computer-processed drawings/renderings listed in Table 4.1 and

printed on 20”x30” sheets & mounted on 20”x30” boards. Indicate the
numerical scale on all plans, elevations, sections, and details.
2.1.2 Three (3) copies of all items in Section 2.1.1 printed in A4 and ring-
bound. First copy shall be colored while the second and third copies
may be in black and white. Indicate the graphical scale on all plans,
elevations, sections, and details.
2.1.3 Executive Summary printed in A4 papers and included in 2.1.2.
2.1.4 Powerpoint presentation (or any equivalent digital platform for visual
presentation) for project background or walk-through video presenta-
tions are optional.
2.2 Option B:
2.2.1 Scanned and digitally-enhanced mechanically drafted or freehand

drawings/renderings listed in Table 4.1 and printed on 20”x30” sheets
& mounted on 20”x30” boards. Indicate the numerical scale on all
plans, elevations, sections, and details.
2.2.2 Three (3) copies of 2.2.1 printed in A4 and ring-bound. First copy
shall be colored while the second and third copies may be in black and
white. Indicate the graphical scale on all plans, elevations, sections,
and details.
2.2.3 Executive Summary printed in A4 papers included in Section 2.2.2.
tions are optional.
2.3 Option C:
2.3.1 Computer-processed drawings/renderings listed in Table 4.1 and

printed on 30”x40” sheets & mounted on 30”x40” boards. Indicate the
numerical scale on all plans, elevations, sections, and details.
2.3.2 Three (3) copies of all items in Section 2.3.1 printed in A4 and ring-
may be in black and white. Indicate the graphical scale on all plans,
elevations, sections, and details.
2.3.3 Executive Summary printed in A4 papers and included in 2.3.2.
tions are optional.
2.4 Option D:
2.4.1 Scanned and digitally-enhanced mechanically drafted or freehand

drawings/renderings listed in Table 4.1 and printed on on 30”x40”

sheets & mounted on 30”X40” boards. Indicate the numerical scale on

all plans, elevations, sections, and details.
2.4.2 Three (3) copies of 2.4.1 printed in A4 and ring-bound. First copy
shall be colored while the second and third copies may be in black and
white. Indicate the graphical scale on all plans, elevations, sections,
and details.
2.4.3 Executive Summary printed in A4 papers included in Section 2.4.2.
tions are optional.
2.5 Option E:

may be in black and white.
2.5.3 Executive Summary printed in A4 papers and included in Section
2.5.2.
3.0 Executive Summary. The Executive Summary as mentioned in Sections 2.1.3, 2.2.3,
2.3.3, 2.4.3, and 2.5.3 is the written manuscript containing the following:
• Thesis Title;
• Background of the Project and Statement of the Problem;
• Project Goal and Objectives;
• Project Scope and Limitations;
• Summarized Site Description and Site Analysis;

6.0 AD10 Thesis Adviser. The Adviser is a registered architect and holds a master’s de-
gree or higher. Advisers are members of the faculty and are held to the same respon-
sibilities and standards. Their professional and academic qualifications enables Ad-
visers to critically review the thesis being proposed.
Similar to the previous architectural design course, the AD10 Adviser shall be re-
sponsible for meeting with the student once a week and shall maintain this schedule
until the final endorsement.
The Thesis Adviser is involved in helping the student maintain the rigor and manage
the process of their thesis. In the Thesis program, the student plays the role of the
principal architect on a large architectural commission, while the Adviser’s role is one
of a senior colleague offering advice and guidance. It demands patience, commit-
ment, and persistence.

Other duties and responsibilities of the AD10 Thesis Adviser are as follows:
• Evaluates the students performance after every individual consultation.

• Approves the student’s thesis work as substantial for preliminary endorsement and
certifies the readiness to proceed with the preparation of his thesis documents for
final endorsement.
• Submits to the Thesis Council, the list of student’s names recommended for final
endorsement.
• Gives the Adviser’s grade which corresponds to 30% of the Thesis Final Grade,
subject to conditions.
• Submits to the Thesis Council an electronic (Excel) file of students and thesis ti-
tles for the drawing of lots.
• Discusses with his/her students the outcome of the deliberations.
• Submits to the Thesis Council the compiled sheets (Adviser’s copies) from the
Logbook for filing and reference.
7.0 Endorsements
7.1 The Student must seek from his/her Thesis Adviser a PRELIMINARY
ENDORSEMENT to proceed with the Design 10 course. This Preliminary
Endorsement shall be based on the submitted site development plan, floor
plans, elevations and sections, etc of the Project. The Adviser shall use the
AD10 Preliminary Endorsement Form and Matrix for this purpose.
7.2 From April 3 to 6, 2018, the Student must seek a FINAL ENDORSEMENT
from the Adviser. The basis of this Final Endorsement shall be the accom-
plishment of 75% to 90% of drawings indicated in Table 4.1 and in the matrix.
The following documents shall be submitted to the Thesis Council, through

the Thesis Adviser:
• All drawings (in board) indicated in Table 4.1;

• AD10 Final Endorsement Matrix;
• AD10 Final Endorsement Form
The Thesis Council shall check the completeness of these documents for the
final endorsement approval of the student on Tuesday, April 10, 2018. All en-
dorsed drawings shall be returned to the Student affixed with signatures from a
Thesis Council representative. Copies of these signed drawings shall be in-
cluded in the hard bound Thesis Book as Chapter X: Design Solution.
8.0 Drawing of Lots. The Thesis Adviser shall submit to the Thesis Council an elec-
tronic copy of all endorsed students and their thesis titles. On Saturday, April 11,
2018 an electronic lottery, to be moderated by the Thesis Coordinator, shall be held
and attended by a representative from each thesis class. Thesis Advisers are likewise
invited to witness the draw.

The Thesis Coordinator shall post within the College premises the thesis deliberations
schedule on April 12, 2018.
9.0 Deliberation Guidelines
9.1 Sessions. Thesis Deliberations shall be from 16-21 April 2018. There are

tion option, as explained in Section 2.0; and
• A hard-bound copy of the Thesis Book with the copies of the signed en-
dorsed drawings in Chapter X.
The thesis book, as the principal output in Design 9, shall be used as the basis
for design development in Design 10. The Thesis Jury, during the proceed-
ings, shall refer to, review, and verify its contents for completeness and consis-
tency between research and design solution. A Candidate’s thesis project may

lead to an unsuccessful defense should there be glaring inconsistencies be-

tween thesis research and final design solution.
9.4 Thesis Jury. The Thesis jury or panel, all from the College of Architecture
faculty, is composed of a Chair and two (2) members.
9.5 Recording of Proceedings. The Candidate shall be permitted to record the the-
sis presentation and defense proceedings by audio or video equipment. How-
ever, the recording equipment shall be switched off and brought out of the Jury
Room before the Jury Deliberation.
9.6 Deliberation Schedule. The Candidate is given one hour to present and defend
the project. The given time shall be broken down as follows:
• 20 minutes presentation;
• 30 minutes defense or question & answer; and
• 10 minutes Jury deliberation and announcement of Thesis grade.
9.7 Deliberation Policies
9.7.1 Before the presentation. Unless requested by the Candidate to be

otherwise, all deliberations shall be open to the public. Relatives and
guests may be invited to witness the proceedings.
The Candidate’s Thesis Adviser may be present during the presentation

and defense merely as an observer. He/she is prohibited from doing
any of the following: (i) answering for the Candidate, (ii) commenting
on Jury questions, and (iii) influencing the outcome of the deliberation
process.
Furthermore, other faculty members may observe and shall not have
any official role in the proceedings. They shall be prohibited from
commenting or questioning the work of the Candidate or conversing
with any jury member that may be construed as disrupting the proceed-
ings.
It shall be the responsibility of the Candidate to ensure that digital

files, software, hardware, and peripherals needed for his presentation
are working properly. In the event that an equipment is faulty, the The-
sis Chair may decide to skip that portion of the presentation and base
the deliberation on the physical review of the Candidate’s printed
sheets or boards.
The individual Juror’s grading sheets and Thesis Jury final grading
sheets shall be completely and legibly filled out by the Candidate (or
his assistant) before handing it over to the Jury.

9.7.2 During the presentation. While a Thesis Jury member may serve as
timekeeper, it is expected that the Candidate is self-aware that he does
not exceed the 20 minutes allotted for his presentation.
Students may assist the Candidate during his presentation and defense.
However, they shall be in their prescribed uniform.
The Thesis Chair reserves the right to discontinue the proceedings

should any of the following documents/materials are missing:
• Thesis Logbook;
• Filled up Jury Final Grading and Individual Juror’s Grading
Sheets;
• Required drawings and documents, based on the Candidate’s pre-
sentation option, as explained in Section 2.0; and
• A hard-bound copy of the Thesis Book with the copies of the
signed endorsed drawings in Chapter X.
Should the Candidate have missing or incomplete presentation draw-

ings, the Chair shall make this known to the Candidate and other Jury
Members. The Chair shall, nonetheless, allow the Candidate to con-
tinue with the presentation. However, this shall be taken into consider-
ation during the computation of the Candidate’s Thesis grade.
The signed final endorsement drawings (copies) contained in Chapter

X of the Thesis Book shall not be accepted as substitute.
9.7.3 During the defense. The Thesis Jury may ask the Candidate any ques-
tion that it deems relevant to the thesis project. The Candidate is re-
sponsible for the correctness of answers to questions which are within
the scope of their Project. The Jury may refer to the thesis book for the
validity and consistency of the Candidate’s answers.
The Jury may, likewise, review the Candidate’s thesis logbook to eval-
uate the Candidate’s diligence while working on his thesis project.
The Candidate shall maintain composure during the defense even when
confronted with difficult questions or when challenged by any member
of the Jury on particulars and details of their project. The Candidate
shall not have an antagonistic attitude before, during and after the de-
liberation.
The Candidate shall not be questioned on the financial feasibility of the

Project. However, the Candidate may be asked questions on the socio-
economic and environmental impacts that the Project may have on the
community and/or immediate surroundings.

The Jury shall not badger a Candidate and press on a point that has
been conceded. A Candidate shall not be antagonized or terrorized.
A Juror shall not monopolize the questions. The Jury Chair, acting as
the moderator, shall ensure that each member has an equal opportunity
to ask the Candidate.
Questions asked outside/beyond the scope of the Candidate’s work or

difficult questions which a Candidate successfully answer shall be
given additional points or merits.
9.7.4 During the grade deliberation and announcement of Thesis grade.

Once the Jury is through with their questions, the Candidate, guests,
and all other spectators shall leave the jury room to allow the Jury to
determine the outcome of the deliberation in private.
Individual Juror’s Grade. Each member of the Thesis Panel shall grade
the work of the Candidate based on the following criteria as shown in
Table 9.1 and using the Individual Juror’s Grading Sheet.
Table 9.1 THESIS DELIBERATION GRADING CRITERIA

passing mark.

Rounding off the individual grade, jury average grade, or final thesis
grade shall not be allowed.
A Candidate shall have successfully defended his/her project if the

Thesis project merited passing grades from two or three Jury Members.
Once the Thesis Jury has completed their deliberation, the Candidate
shall be called back inside the Jury Room. Standing in front of the
Thesis Jury, the Candidate shall affix his/her signature on the Final
Jury Grading Sheet, after which the Thesis Jury Chair shall read the
summary of the deliberation and the decision of the Thesis Jury.
The original copy of the Final Jury Grading Sheet shall be handed to
the Candidate unless he/she is instructed by the Thesis Jury to under-
take some retouches/revisions on the project.
9.7.5 Post-deliberation. The Candidate shall quickly collect his/her presen-

tation equipment, materials, thesis book and logbook to make way for
the next Candidate, except:
• When the Candidate successfully defended his/her thesis with a fi-

nal grade of 1.0 (Excellent), the Candidate shall hand over to the
designated Thesis Day Chair the (i) thesis book and (ii) 20”x30” or
30”x40” boards;
• When the Candidate unsuccessfully defended his/her thesis with a

final grade of 5.0 (Failed), the Candidate shall hand over to the
Thesis Jury Chair the (i) thesis book and (ii) 20”x30” or 30”x40”
boards.
The Thesis Jury may ask for copies of the executive summary although
the Candidate is not required to do so.
10.0 Successful Thesis Defense. The Candidate shall have successfully defended his/her
thesis project under the following circumstances and as shown on Figure 10.1:
10.1 When the thesis project, upon deliberation, receives a passing grade of 75 and
above from all three Thesis Jurors, the Thesis final grade shall be derived and
computed as follows:
70.0% of Average Jury Grade

+ 30.0% of Thesis Adviser Grade
_________________________
100.0% Thesis Final Grade
The Thesis Adviser, who has worked with the Candidate for a minimum of
two terms, will be allocated a thirty percent (30%) apportionment in the com-

putation of the thesis final grade. The basis of this grade will be relayed to the
Thesis Jury using the Thesis Grading Sheet: Adviser.
10.2 When the thesis project, upon deliberation, receives a failing grade of 50 to 74
from one Thesis Juror, the Candidate shall automatically receive a Thesis final
grade of 3.00 (Passed). The Thesis Adviser’s grade is disregarded.
10.3 When the thesis project, upon deliberation, receives a failing grade of 50 to 74
from two or three Thesis Jurors, the Candidate shall automatically receive a
Thesis final grade of 5.00 (Failed). The Thesis Adviser’s grade is disregarded.

11.0 D10 Final Grade. The Thesis Final Grade obtained by the Candidate during the The-
sis Deliberation is automatically equivalent to the grade the student will receive for
the Design 10 course. Thus, the Thesis Adviser shall not, in any circumstance, change
the grade of his/her Thesis Student whether the student successfully or unsuccessfully
defended his Thesis project.
A student who obtained a deliberation grade of 5.0 (Failed) shall receive an encoded
D10 grade of WP (Withdrawal with Permission) as reflected in the Form X.
The Thesis Council shall review and reserve the right to correct the grade given by the
Thesis Jury if there is a computation error or conversion discrepancy between the
Thesis Grade and the Equivalent Grade. This shall be relayed to the student through
his Adviser.
Students who unsuccessfully defended their Thesis projects are encouraged to keep
their copies of the Jury Final Grading Sheet. The comments on the grading sheet are
usually the basis for deliberation should the student re-enroll the AD10 course.

12.0 Thesis Projects Subject to Revisions. A Candidate who is required to undertake re-
touches/revisions as indicated in the Final Jury Grading Sheet, shall be guided by the
following:
12.1 The Thesis Jury Chair shall furnish the Candidate/Student with the
duplicate/carbon copy of the Final Jury Grading Sheet. The Jury’s required
revisions and changes should be clearly indicated in this Grading Sheet.
12.2 The student should accomplish the required revisions and modifications within
three (3) school days from the deliberation date. It is the responsibility of the
student to look for and meet with the Jury Chair and at least one Jury Member
for proper checking and endorsement of the completed works. Presentation
and submission of revisions shall be conducted within the confines of the Col-
lege of Architecture of the University of Santo Tomas.
12.3 The Jury Chair and one Jury Member shall affix their respective signatures in
the designated box in the duplicate copy of the Final Jury Grading Sheet to in-
dicate approval and endorsement of the presented revisions.
12.4 The student then presents this duly signed Grading Sheet to the designated
Thesis Coordinator to officially record his/her Thesis Final Grade. The Thesis
Coordinator hands over to the student the original copy of the Final Jury Grad-
ing Sheet.
12.5 The student shall automatically receive a grade of 5.00, converted to WP, if he
is unable to either present revisions within the required period or his revisions
were deemed below expectations.
13.0 Non-Appearance. In the event that the Candidate fails to appear on the scheduled
date or is more than 15 minutes late for his scheduled presentation, he shall have for-
feited his chance to defend his Thesis project. The Candidate shall automatically re-
ceive a WP (Withdrawal with permission) as final grade for AD10.
If the Candidate is suddenly indisposed or has a valid family emergency, and thus can-
not attend his scheduled Thesis Defense, he shall send, through a representative, the
(i) Thesis Book, (ii) Thesis Logbook, and (iii) all completed Thesis Works as indi-
cated in Section 2.0, to the assigned Thesis Day Chair on the day he is originally
scheduled for deliberation.
14.0 Appeals for Reconsideration and Requests for Re-deliberations. The

Candidate/Student may appeal to the Dean of the College of Architecture, in writing,
for a reconsideration of the Final Thesis Grade or may request for a re-deliberation if:
14.1 There is a valid medical reason or family/personal emergency for the Candi-

pital or legal certification.

14.2 There is strong substantiated evidence of inappropriate behavior coming from

any member of the Thesis Jury based on the guidelines for Jury Members.
15.0 Outstanding Theses and Thesis of the Year. Thesis students who obtain a Final
Thesis Grade of 1.0 (Excellent) shall receive Outstanding Thesis recognitions and are
eligible for the Thesis of the Year Award. Before the end of the second term of each
academic year, a week-long exhibit of all Outstanding Theses shall be held at the UST
College of Architecture.
Their thesis projects stand as evidence of the abilities and accomplishments of the
College’s outstanding thesis candidates; it is a substantial rendition of their design
thinking and skills. The Outstanding Thesis Exhibit is the representation of these tal-
ents to the architectural academic community. As such, the exhibit assumes a role in
forming the public understanding of what the UST College of Architecture is.
Outstanding Thesis Books are retained by the College for future reference. They are
grouped in one area for easy access, and advisers of future RMA, AD9, and AD10
classes are encouraged to refer to them as indicators of the level of quality for the the-
sis program. It forms part of the cultural memory of the College.
During the Outstanding Theses Exhibit, students may again be required to present
their projects in front of a jury composed of UST College of Architecture Alumni.
The Jury shall grade their work based on the same deliberation criteria presented on
Table 9.1.
The student with the most successful thesis presentation of that year’s graduating
class shall receive the sole distinction of Thesis of the Year, awarded during the
Solemn Investitures.
