This means that diverse fields mutually interact with each other, ranging from engineering technologies to fine art, or from natural sciences to humanities. As the architecture is a field where regardless of the kind of unrefined fragment taken out from it, its comprehensive nature remains unaltered. The highly advanced theoretical and practical inquisitions at the graduate school level are based on architectural history, diversity, and comprehensiveness, which form the essence of architecture. Efforts are made for preserving and restoring the cultural assets of Japan and Asia, for understanding the Western architecture from ancient times to the near-modern and modern era, as well as for conducting research on architectural cities and settlement theories.◆ Architectural Planning (architectural art field)Principles and methods of planning are learnt from the perspective of architectural designers while developing theories about domestic and foreign architects. Methods for providing feedback to designers are examined by investigating how a facility is being used. More specifically, one’s own individual concept of architecture is created by conducting investigative research and by actual design production work, with guidance in technique and creativity from the instructing professor as well as practical training off campus (internship). Students’ abilities to respond to issues discovered in society with creative proposals are given importance during the course of the program.◆ Urban Planning (architectural art field)Urban planning at Waseda was established in 1966 by architects and urban planners, Motoo Take and Takamasa Yoshizaka, who attempted at offering radical proposals for urbanization. This task has since then been passed onto Koichi Tonuma, who, in working toward raising human standards of habitation, pursues a future image of settlements and cities as places for a global standard of living and continues to present proposals to society.The reach of these investigations, research, and plans extends beyond Japan to the Asian region, but in all cases, in general, the research and practical training are conducted locally. Foreign students from over ten countries, numbering more than 300, are among those who undertook this program and many among them were conferred doctoral degrees. The three laboratories currently established are engaged in activities conducted in mutual coordination, including research on principal topics of theory and history of urban design and planning, cityscape design, residential Summary of Each Research Guidance◆ Architectural History (architectural art field)8484
