Course Objectives To create research and basic concepts related to building sciences in studies on the selected doctoral thesis topic. Analyze building systems, subsystems, and building elements analytically and teach them their design and application in the necessary processes and scales. To reveal their determinant role in the building design process.
Course Learning Outcomes The students who succeeded in this course;
  • Technological problems of structure covered by a doctor selected subject (sub-systems and components, construction methods) learns to generate options for solving and development. Learning that reviews the information and makes researching the problem given by the application.
Course Content Building-environmental factors relation; applications on designs of different scales and feasibilities; practices of access to and interpretation of information; interpretation of the research to be done by PhD students on their subjects, conveying theoretical knowledge, criticism of applications assigned.
