SCHOOLOFARCHITECTURE
CentralUniversity ofRajasthan CityRoad, Madanganj, Kishangarh (AjmerDistrict) Website:www.curaj.ac.in
MastersProgramme in Sustainable Architecture
1. Preamble: Buildings consume vast amounts of resources during their construction, operation and entire life cycle. Directly or indirectly, they account for nearly half of the primary energy consumption of the nation. Emissions from making or operating buildings damage the environment, create waste disposal problems and add to global warming. Buildings occupants can face ill-health and discomfort if the internal environment and air quality of buildings is improper. Thus designing sustainable built environment both in rural as well as urban context is important to provide good quality of life to inhabitants and to protect earths environment. Architecture education in India, especially at undergraduate level has very little emphasis to integrate technical, economic, social and environmental aspects to design sustainable built environment. This Masters programme aims to train Architects to understand issues associated with Sustainable Architecture, including environmental concerns, assessment methods, energy consumption, construction materials, health, economic and social concerns, and management of buildings and other construction projects in a life-cycle perspective. This programme encompasses residential, commercial and public architecture and planning of sites and layouts as well as their effect on the urban and rural built environment. The programme structure follows a multidisciplinary approach integrating technology, architecture, engineering, physical sciences, ecology, management and legal framework. The course follows a modular approach offering adequate flexibility to learners to choose from a basket of courses according to their career interests. 2. Aim: The programme aims to produce Architects who are competent enough to combine architectural design and planning principles with modern technology and traditional community wisdom to design a sustainable project and manage implementation of such projects. The course is highly relevant for Architects who want to pursue a professional career in Architectural and Planning practice, or in construction industry, or in the field of rural and urban development or academics and multidisciplinary research or at policy making levels in government and other organizations. 3. Duration: 4 Semesters (2 years). This is a two year full time programme divided into four consecutive semesters of 18 weeks each including 2 weeks for exams. The first three semesters will be blend of theory and project courses and the fourth semester will be equip the participants with managerial knowledge skills for managing sustainable projects as they prepare a Masters design thesis. Additional courses can be taken during summer / winter breaks. 4. Eligibility: Bachelors Degree in Architecture or equivalent as recognized by Council of Architecture with minimum 50% marks or equivalent grades. 5. Admission: Entrance Examination to be conducted on all-India basis.

MastersProgramme in Sustainable Architecture 6. Programme Structure and Courses offered: The programme will lead to degree - M. Arch. Sustainable Architecture . Semester 1:The first semester willprovide an insight into the awareness and culture on which sustainability is based, presenting the different contexts in which it can be applied. Theory courses will cover building physics, environmental management, ecology, and concepts and strategies related to design of energy efficient, sustainable and zero emission built environment. Historical perspectives will expose students to traditional wisdom and passive building design strategies besides retracing history of traditional architecture and settlement planning principles that were in harmony with nature. Design project course will lay emphasis of climate and built form and applying traditional community wisdom to achieve sustainable architecture. Semester 2:Theory courses in this semester will cover Water and Waste management, Energy systems and services and their integration in architectural design, and Sustainable building materials and technology and Sustainable neighborhood design. The design project course will lay emphasis on application of modern technologies and integrated renewable energy systems to design energy efficient buildings. Elective courses will allow students to pursue their subject interests. During this semester students will finalize their topics for dissertation and masters design thesis and work during summers on a project / research that enables them to gather knowledge and skills required to accomplish their dissertation and thesis work with ease. Semester 3:In this semester students will be exposed to legal and policy issues concerning green buildings, environmental impact assessment of projects. Relationship between economics and sustainable development will be explored. Elective courses will allow students to choose their thrust area. Design project will essentially consist of sustainable design of a large campus with focus on site ecology, water management, landscaping and biodiversity, conservation of natural resources and conservation of natural and built heritage of the region. In this semester students will also write a dissertation. Summer project work will be evaluated in this semester though formal presentations. Semester 4:In the fourth and final semester students will work on a large scale project as a Master design thesis. An theory course on Project Management for Sustainable Architecture will build students capacity to face the professional challenges as they pursue their career. Additional elective course will help them strengthen their knowledge base in desired track.

Course SA1 (Prepared by Prof. Neeraj Gupta) Introduction to Sustainable Development and Architecture 3 Credits L-S-T: 3-0-0 Broad Objectives and Outline As governments and societies are becoming more environmentally conscious, architects and planners are beginning to have greater concern about the built environment and its long term viability. Given the need for conserving natural resources and to save environment, expectations from professionals have increased manifold. Sustainability is, thus a critical concept and direction for the future architects and planners. However, quite often, sustainable architecture practice is guided by architects who have not been formally trained in environment and sustainable development. With this background, this course aims to impart an understanding of issues related to sustainable development, especially in Indian context, that have implications on design of buildings and neighborhoods. The course will familiarize students with current perspectives related to sustainability in built environment and help them analyze challenges and opportunities for sustainable architecture. This course offers a general review of concepts and principles of sustainable development and presents the idea of sustainability as a paradigm change in the architectural design field. It gives a preview to the practices, strategies and implementation processes that shape sustainable architecture.

Course SA4 Climatology and Building Physics (prepared by Prof. Sanjay Prakash) 4 Credits L-S-T: 3-0-2 Broad Objectives and Outline A very important component of sustainability in buildings has to do with the fact that they have to respond to the climate in which they are sited. This course aims to cover the various climates, mainly in India, and the implications of each for building design in these respective climates. The course will cover the basic concepts of heat transfer with respect to buildings and point to strategies that need to be incorporated to achieve climatically appropriate building. The course shall also cover concepts of human thermal comfort and its measurement. Tutorials in this course are expected to create a confidence with the technical concepts so that the students have a fundamental understanding of physics concepts that are used by building analysts and scientists. It is encouraged, in the form of an assignment, to undertake secondary research on existing buildings in published literature and identify their climatically responsive features. This course will be closely connected to SA7: Energy Efficient Building Design and they should be in continuity, and if possible, led by the same faculty member.

Course SA5 Sustainable Architecture Historical and Community Perspectives (prepared by Prof. Neeraj Gupta) 3 Credits L-S-T: 3-0-0 Broad Objectives and Outline The architecture of 20th century in India, barring few exceptional cases widely adopted forms, styles and patterns seen in western architecture. Contemporary architecture in India relies on hi-techs in building materials and engineering technologies that often waste energy, and cause physical and psychological harm in varying degrees to the human beings. On the contrary compared to modern society, ancient people were more aware of ecological importance and had greater reverence to nature. Ancient buildings were based on natural laws and depend on natural forces in order to adapt to bad survival environments and improve survival conditions. Thus traditional community wisdom can provide us with rich and valuable technological experiences that can be good reference point for modern day architecture. This course offers a general review of concepts and principles of vernacular, and historical architecture that provide unique insights on sustainable development and can help in understanding the practices, strategies and implementation processes that shape sustainable architecture. The course will cover examples largely from Indian context and would draw reference from traditional community wisdom from India and other parts of the world.

Course SA 11 Sustainable Neighborhood Planning and Urban Design 4 Credits L-S-T per week: 3-0-0 Broad Objectives and Outline Given the rapid and haphazard growth of towns and cities and associated problems of environment it is important to understand the macro and micro issues that connect environment and built human habitat. This course looks at relationship of built environment with overall environment. Our ancient traditional wisdom has been able to create a built environment that was responsive to climatic and other local conditions and also aesthetically pleasant. Most of the human habitat that one comes across in villages is built on sustainable design principles. Thus this course looks at strategies that have been in use since historical times to create sustainable neighborhoods. At the same time it looks at how modern technology can be used to achieve goals of sustainable development. This course will thus look at vernacular as well as modern urban design strategies that can mitigate the negative impacts of urban climate. In this course urban heat island effect and ways to overcome its impact will be covered. The course will also delve into resource efficiency in terms of water, waste and materials at micro and macro level. Site planning strategies and urban design issues covered in this course will be simultaneously put to practice in the studio classes covering a Sustainable Urban design project.
