Cities are now the predominant home for humanity. More than half of the world©s population reside in cities. The contemporary growth of cities, however, is attached to profound political questions about what it means to be urban, and what ©being urban© means for the planet. This Unit of Study provides grounding to these crucial questions. In the first half of the semester, lectures address the question: are cities sustainable? Why or why not? And for whom? This focus addresses utopian visions for cities, urban history, ecological footprint analysis, bioregionalism, transport options, urban form and urban policy, with reference to sustainable futures and the role of custodianship. During the second half of the semester, lectures address the question: what does it mean to be a ©citizen©, and what has this got to do with cities and different approaches to urban sustainability? This includes consideration of historical and contemporary configurations of citizenship. Case studies illustrate ways in which new forms of citizenship are produced through struggles over rights to the city and the urban environment. Through the semester a practicals program enables students to develop urban-based research projects.

DESC9201 Indoor Environmental Quality (IEQ) Credit points: 6 Teacher/Coordinator: Prof Richard de Dear Session: Semester 2 Classes: 5-day intensive (9am-5pm) Assessment: Lab-based assignment (40%); Exam (60%) Mode of delivery: Block mode

Humans© thermal, visual, auditory and olfactory senses determine the perceived quality of a built environment. This unit analyses built environments in context of these human factors. This unit relates human experience of buildings to the main dimensions of Indoor Environmental Quality (IEQ): thermal, acoustic, lighting and indoor pollution. This understanding of human comfort perceptions is contextualised by an understanding of the various approaches to the evaluation of built environmental performance. You will study post-occupancy evaluation tools and workplace productivity metrics. Regulations from Australia and abroad will be explored to understand their impact on acoustics, thermal comfort, lighting, indoor air quality and ventilation.The unit also pays particular attention to sustainability rating tools from around the world, including GreenStar, NABERS, LEED and BREEAM. This unit gives students extensive hands-on experience in laboratory- and field-based methods of IEQ research and building diagnostics. A recurring theme will be instrumental measurements of indoor environments, and how they can be analysed in relation to perceptual and behavioural data collected from occupants of those environments.

Objectives of this unit are to give students an understanding of energy consumption issues in buildings against the backdrop of escalating energy and carbon emission reduction targets for the built environment. In order to meet these targets, new design and operational management techniques are needed, including energy auditing, retrofitting and energy efficiency optimisation techniques. This unit is primarily concerned with energy management in buildings and Code compliance in Australia.The unit will expose students to the processes and considerations involved in undertaking an energy audit in buildings. Active energy systems and their fundamentals may be reviewed. Finally, methods of assessing energy performance will be covered, with emphasis on energy simulation. Understanding and application of Australian standards and rating schemes such as NCC/Section J, NABERS Energy, GBCA¿s Green Star, Living Building Challenge, etc., will also be explored.

Investors associated with the property industry require at the outset Return On Investment (ROI) evaluations before committing capital. This unit of study examines the economic principles as they apply to buildings, from capital growth and life cycle management perspectives. The focus is on economic and financial practices required for high performing building assets, contract procurement strategies, cash flow analysis, return on investment for retro-fitting, and economic appraisals of existing or new building assets. This unit will develop an understanding of carbon accounting in relation to building management and its importance to sustainable built asset portfolios. The unit, taught by case studies, will equip students with an understanding of economic principles and professional tools necessary for the procurement and management of real estate property, facilities and buildings at optimum economic and environmental performance.

In lighting design, the primary function of light is to facilitate visual perception of the illuminated scene. User-centred lighting design requires a thorough understanding of the biological link between light and vision. In this unit, students learn the fundamentals of the human visual system and the physical properties of light that impact perception. Specific topics include an overview of visual anatomy, the behaviour of the photoreceptors, and post-receptoral processing that leads to colour perception. The spectral, spatial, and temporal characteristics of visual processing are also covered. Important visual phenomena, such as chromatic adaptation and contrast sensitivity, are discussed.The link between fundamental knowledge of the human visual system and the practical application of lighting design is emphasised.

190 Master of Urban Design Master of Urban Design

Over the last century, urban design gradually emerged as a distinct field in response to the need for architects and urban and regional planners to communicate efficiently. There was also a need for better design skills at urban scales: streets, street blocks, town centres, city districts, new suburbs, cross-city infrastructure. Since that time, urban design has expanded enormously.

Today, professionals with good urban design knowledge and skills are much sought after by private consulting firms, development organisations, and local and state governments, where they are required to prepare and evaluate urban design policies, strategies, frameworks, guidelines, concepts, master plans and programs, as well as be involved in the more detailed design and management of urban spaces. Urban design knowledge and skills also assist in designing for specific sites by providing a better appreciation of urban structure and context. They are crucial for good development evaluation, and enhance perspectives on urban conservation: and there is a small but growing demand for urban design educators and media commentators.

The Urban Design program is arranged to develop understanding and abilities for all of the above roles. At its core are studio projects that address emerging design issues, plus supporting units that cover essential morphological, ecological, cultural and other dimensions of urbanism. Graduates of the program occupy important urban design positions in all of the above-mentioned employment sectors in cities across Asia, Europe, North and South America, Australia and New Zealand.

This intensive unit is a practically focused introduction to the techniques and bodies of knowledge essential to conserving modern buildings and their materials. Expert conservation architects and tradespeople will describe and lead practical demonstrations of techniques in conservation. Students will be challenged to assess and understand forms of decay and to prescribe appropriate interventions to mitigate and prevent such decay. They will have the opportunity to work with materials and inspect work underway on real conservation projects at culturally significant buildings. This unit provides an overview of key issues in building conservation as well as a close-up view of the conservation of modern buildings. The unit explores the distinctive materials used in Twentieth Century architecture, such as reinforced concrete, as well as modern building systems such as glazed curtain walls and stone cladding systems. The unit will assist students to recognise different uses of these materials, understand the basic tools and techniques required to assess their condition as well as the best practice approaches to their conservation. Upon successful completion of the unit of study, students will be able to: Understand the behavior of a range of modern building materials; Recognise threats to building materials from moisture, wind, biological and chemical attack and other forces that lead to deterioration; Record a building in drawings and photographs; Document and assess the condition of the fabric of a building; Develop an approach to conserving the fabric of a building.

Note: Masters students only. Graduate Diploma students with permission of the Program Coordinator. Advanced Standing will not be granted for this unit of study.

The aims of the internship are to provide a direct link between the academic core of the course and the disciplines and methods of practice; to enable candidates to experience aspects of practice and provide the opportunity for them to work in areas of the field outside their specific expertise; to enable candidates to observe, analyse and comment on the interaction between theoretical and practical issues of their Program as it is practiced, and to establish connections between practice and the development of relevant research programs. The internship is intended to provide the opportunity for students to work in various situations in their Program©s area. A secondary intention is that students use the opportunities of placement to broaden their own experience beyond the limitations of their chosen discipline. Candidates must find a suitable professional placement. Permission to enrol is given after the proposed placement has been approved by the Program Director.The host organisation will nominate a supervisor for the student for the internship. The student must complete at least 120 hours of full or part-time experience, supervised by a practicing designer (or other professional depending upon the field). A log-book of each day©s work, signed by the supervisor must be submitted on completion. A 2000-word report on the benefits of the internship must also be produced. At the end of the internship the student will: demonstrate that they have completed a program of work (through a log-book); present a report; analyse their experiences and compare these to the theoretical content of the units they have completed, and suggest appropriate research directions so as to improve the complementarity of theory to practice.

They are among Australia©s most capable research facilities for acoustics and audio.

For internal use by University of Sydney staff only. 241 RESEARCH

Acoustics is one of the main contributors to the quality of the built environment, but poses many challenges because sound cannot be seen and it behaves in complex ways. It has a profound effect on human communication, comfort, productivity and enjoyment. audio systems are a part of almost every building, and play a substantial role in supporting human activity. The Spatial Audio and Acoustics Labs provide a context for advanced research on problems of acoustics and audio applications, contributing to improving the sound environment in which we live.

· Room acoustics · Psychoacoustics, including loudness and spatial hearing · Audio reproduction quality and signal processing · Simulation and auralisation of acoustical environments · Acoustic aspects of Indoor Environmental Quality · Advanced measurement techniques · Auditory display and sonification. Lighting Lab The lighting research program at the University of Sydney concentrates on forward-looking applications of light, to provide leading ideas on how the characteristics of future technologies can be leveraged to maximize benefit to human users of light. The researchers in the lab question the status quo of lighting design practice to develop innovative, sometimes fundamentally new, ways of using lighting in architectural spaces. Experiments investigate the impacts of these applications on both the experience of human users of architecture and energy consumption.

A variety of projects revolve around three research focus areas: the spectrum of illumination, the spatial distribution of light, and user control of lighting.

· Applications of emerging and next-generation lighting technologies · Visual perception, particularly colour vision · Novel light source spectra for improved efficacy · Colorimetry and development of colour standards · Innovative modes of lighting control and human interaction. Sustainable design · Cultural sustainability through integration of architectural science, archeological and heritage conservation knowledge · Form and space making potential of sustainable design · History of climatic design in Australia · Simulation of building environmental performance · Comfort analysis of urban outdoor and semi-outdoor microclimates · Building integration of renewable energy sources. Design Lab The Design Lab is committed to interdisciplinary, design-led research that leads to improved interactions and experiences through and with digital technology.

Research in the Design Lab focuses on three core aspects of design: the process and theory of human-centred design; the design of innovative solutions; and the use of digital products.

Research projects in the Design Lab span the two broad areas of interaction design and creative technologies. These areas are combined and extended through collaborations across and beyond the Design Lab into more specialised research areas including design thinking, experience design, interactive media, media architecture, urban informatics, urban data design, human-robot interaction, computational creativity, and wearable technology. The members of the Design Lab apply their research to a diverse range of applications including architecture, urban and regional planning, transport, healthcare, education, and the creative industries.

The Design Lab provides the environmental and resources to facilitate collaborations with industry and communities, providing opportunities for enhancing current practice, environments, and systems through design.

For further information contact Associate Professor Martin Tomitsch ([email protected]) or any member of the discipline. Areas of research Creative Systems and Robotics Research on creative systems in the Design Lab includes the development and evaluation of computational models of individual and social creativity. Computational models of individual creativity involve an agent and some environment that the agent can change; design is fundamentally about how an agent changes their environment. The aim of these models of social creativity is to provide frameworks for investigating the nature of creativity without the additional complexities inherent in human societies. Research in this stream includes the exploration of social robotics with a focus on the interaction between humans and social robots. Data Analytics and Visualisation Research in this stream focuses on two areas: using data analytics to drive design and design decisions, and the human-centric, aesthetic visualisation of digital information. These areas are applied across a range of application areas and scales, from urban planning to health informatics, and from online visualisation tools to large-scale dashboard visualisations. Designing for Health and Wellbeing Research on health and wellbeing in the Design Lab combines design-led research practice with creative technologies to investigate how computing technologies can help to support healthy living and life styles in home environments, at work, and in cities. Media Architecture and Smart Cities The Design Lab©s research on media architecture focuses on design issues, technological challenges and social aspects around the integration of digital technologies into the urban space. It uses a research-through-design approach to conceptualise, develop, and evaluate interventions

242 RESEARCH that link digital and physical spaces with the aim to improve urban liveability. This research stream includes the investigation of design-led approaches to smart city solutions, that focus on empowering citizens and civic leaders through targeted interventions Performance, Body and Technology Research in this stream focuses on the development of methods for working with the creative potential of the moving body, drawn from movement improvisation, dance and somatic practices, which can be appropriated by designers. This includes research on wearable technologies across a range of applications areas, including physical activity and health. Urban Data Science The Design Lab©s research on urban data science is pushing the interface between traditional urban studies, economics, design, and planning and new multi-disciplinary regimes brought in by research in complex systems, sensor technologies, network science, physics, machine learning and data science. This includes research on city science and urban computing, and the application of novel data mining and computational methods for solving problems in urban design and planning research. Research in this stream especially focuses on the social and economic dynamics of housing and transportation in the city. Urbanism Urban and regional planning research has been established in the school since the late 1940s, covering a wide range of subject areas, including international studies with a focus on Southeast Asia and the Pacific; metropolitan planning; housing studies; regional policy and many other fields of policy and development. A recently established urban design program provides additional opportunities to conduct research into the design dimensions of urban form. The School is also home to the Cities Network http://sydney.edu.au/architecture/citiesnetwork/ and Urban Housing Lab http://sydney.edu.au/urban-housing-lab, and has strong links with the Festival of Urbanism http://www.festivalofurbanism.com, Henry Halloran Trust http://sydney.edu.au/halloran.

Part 3: Studying and Assessment 8 Attendance (1) Students are required to be in attendance at the correct time and place of any formal or informal examinations. Non-attendance on any grounds that is insufficient to claim special consideration or disability adjustment will result in the forfeiture of marks associated with the assessment. Participation in a minimum number of assessment items may be included in the requirements specified for a unit of study. (2) Students are expected to attend a minimum of 90% of timetabled activities for each unit of study, unless granted exemption by the Head of School and Dean, Associate Dean Education or relevant Unit Coordinator. The Head of School and Dean, Associate Dean Education or relevant Unit Coordinator may determine that a student fails a unit of study because of inadequate attendance. Alternatively, at their discretion, they may set additional assessment items when attendance is lower than 90%. 9 Late submission of work (1) It is expected that unless a simple extension, special consideration or disability adjustment has been granted, students will submit all assessment items for a unit of study on the due dates specified. If an assessment is submitted or otherwise completed within a period of extension granted by successful application for simple extension, special consideration or an assessment adjustment determined by Disabilty Services, no academic penalty will be applied to that piece of assessment. (2) If an extension is not sought, not granted, or is granted but work is submitted after the extended due date, the late submission of assessment will result in an academic penalty as follows: (a) For non-public assessments, work submitted after the deadline will incur a penalty of 5% of the total marks earned for the assessment per calendar day. Work submitted 20 calendar days or more after the deadline will not be assessed and will receive a mark of zero. (b) For assessments involving public, oral, and/or visual presentations completed after the deadline, a penalty of 10% of the total marks earned for the assessment will be imposed per calendar day. Work completed 10 calendar days or more after the deadline will not be assessed and will receive a mark of zero. 10 Special consideration for illness, injury or misadventure Special consideration is a process that affords equal opportunity to students who have experienced circumstances that adversely impact their ability to adequately complete an assessment task in a unit of study, as determined by the Coursework Policy. The procedures for applying for special consideration are described in each unit of study outline. 11 Re-assessment (1) In this School, an opportunity for re-assessment may be offered to students whose final mark for a unit of study is within the range 45-49. Re-assessment will be offered on one date only and it is a student©s responsibility to be available to attend on that date. The maximum mark and grade awarded for a unit of study in these circumstances will be 50 Pass. (2) Students who have been granted special consideration may be allowed to sit the exam or submit the required work at a negotiated date that should not be longer than the period of incapacitation and, in any case, not longer than three months after the original examination or submission date. Part 4: Progression, Results and Graduation 12 Satisfactory progress The School will monitor students for satisfactory progress towards the completion of their award course. In addition to the common triggers used to identify students not meeting academic progression requirements (as defined by the progression requirements of the Coursework Policy, students must pass any unit of study identified in the course resolutions as being critical to progression through the course. 13 Award of the bachelor degree with honours (1) Honours is available to meritorious students as either appended honours or embedded honours in the combined degree Bachelor of Design Computing/Bachelor of Advanced Studies and the double degree Bachelor of Design in Architecture (Honours)/Master of Architecture program. (2) Admission, requirements and award of the Bachelor of Design in Architecture (Honours)/Master of Architecture are in accordance with the relevant course resolutions. (3) To qualify for admission to the appended honours degree, a student must: (a) Have completed the requirements for the relevant pass degree or be a graduate of no more than four years© standing; and (b) Have a WAM of at least 70 (in exceptional cases the Head of School and Dean may admit a student with a WAM of 65 or higher); and (c) Have an approved thesis topic and supervisor. (4) To qualify for the award of appended honours a candidate must successfully complete 48 credit points of honours units of study listed in the table for the degree over two consecutive semesters. (5) The grade of honours will be determined by the honours mark achieved. The honours mark will be derived from weighting the mark for the honours thesis at 70% and the WAM of the pass degree at 30%. (6) Honours is awarded in the following classes: Description Honours Mark Range Honours Class I Mark>=80 Honours Class II (Division 1) 75<=Mark<80 Honours Class II (Division 2) 70<=Mark<75 Honours not awarded Mark<70

(7) A candidate for honours who does not meet the requirements for award of honours shall be awarded the pass degree. (8) A candidate may not graduate with the pass degree while enrolled in the honours program. 14 University Medal Honours candidates with an outstanding academic record throughout the degree and who have achieved Honours Class I may be eligible for the award of a University Medal, in accordance with the Coursework Policy and on nomination by the Associate Dean Education to the Head of School and Dean. 15 Weighted Average Mark (WAM) (1) The University WAM is calculated using the following formula:

258 Resolutions of the University School

WAM = sum(Wc x Mc)

sum(Wc)

Where Wc is the unit of study credit points multiplied by the unit weighting and Mc is the mark achieved for the unit. All attempted units of study are included except for units of study assessed on a pass/fail basis, units of study with a grade of DC or DF, and credited units of study from other institutions. (2) The weight of a unit of study is assigned by the owning Faculty or School. In this School, units are weighted as one. Part 5: Other 16 Transitional provisions (1) These resolutions apply to students who commenced their candidature after 1 January, 2017 and students who commenced their candidature prior to 1 January, 2017 and who elect to proceed under these resolutions. (2) Students who commenced prior to 1 January, 2017 may complete the requirements in accordance with the resolutions in force at the time of their commencement, provided that requirements are completed by 1 January, 2022. The School may specify a later date for completion or specify alternative requirements for completion of candidatures that extend beyond this time.
