CEE 33Q: Studio 1: Architecture - Space, Light, and Movement

This introductory architectural design course in the studio core sequence leads students through a series of spatial design exercises. Students will explore the fundamental principles of architectural design through drawing, model making, analysis, craft, organizational systems, narrative, movement, light, form, and scale. Students will also explore architecture on campus, taking their personal experience as a point of departure for the design investigations. We build models exploring spatial arrangements and configurations, learn to draw plans, develop craftsmanship building models, visit buildings around campus, and design a house for a visiting scholar. Most importantly we learn to engage and foster creativity. Many of the best architects and designers maintain a child-like sense of wonder. We all have it, but sometimes this may get de-emphasized as one moves along in their journey of education. We work together to spark and engage that curiosity to design dynamic spaces that relate to the human body. The course is 5 units and requires a significant amount of time. That said it is fun and engaging experience.

CEE 107A: Understand Energy (CEE 207A, EARTHSYS 103, ENERGY 107A, ENERGY 207A)

NOTE: This course will be taught in-person on main campus, lectures are recorded and available asynchronously. Energy is the number one contributor to climate change and has significant consequences for our society, political system, economy, and environment. Energy is also a fundamental driver of human development and opportunity. In taking this course, students will not only understand the fundamentals of each energy resource - including significance and potential, conversion processes and technologies, drivers and barriers, policy and regulation, and social, economic, and environmental impacts - students will also be able to put this in the context of the broader energy system. Both depletable and renewable energy resources are covered, including oil, natural gas, coal, nuclear, biomass and biofuel, hydroelectric, wind, solar thermal and photovoltaics (PV), geothermal, and ocean energy, with cross-cutting topics including electricity, storage, climate change and greenhouse gas emiss more »

CEE 107D: Scaling Integrative Design for Radical Energy Efficiency (CEE 207D)

Integrative design optimizes buildings, vehicles, factories, and equipment as whole systems. This makes the energy efficiency resource severalfold bigger and cheaper, often with increasing returns, helping to enable profitable climate protection. Integrative design is proven and shows immense value, yet is rarely taught or practiced. This seminar explores how more than a dozen diverse scaling vectors can be harnessed to change integrative design rapidly from rare to common, and thus transform the human prospect and pathways to a host of climate solutions. Prerequisites: CEE 107H/207H, CEE 107R/207R, or by permission of instructor.

CEE 107R: E^3: Extreme Energy Efficiency (CEE 207R)

Be part of a unique course about extreme energy efficiency and integrative design! We will meet once a week throughout the quarter. E^3 will focus on efficiency techniques' design, performance, integration, barrier-busting, profitable business-led implementation, and implications for energy supply, competitive success, environment, development, security, etc. Examples will span very diverse sectors, applications, issues, and disciplines, covering different energy themes throughout the quarter: buildings, transportation, industry, and implementation and implications, including renewable energy synergy and integration. The course will be composed of keynote lectures, exercises, and interactive puzzlers, synthesizing integrative design principles. Exercises will illuminate real-world design challenges RMI has faced, in which students will explore clean-sheet solutions that meet end-use demands and optimize whole-system resource efficiency, seeking expanding rather than diminishing returns more »

Exercises will illuminate real-world design challenges RMI has faced, in which students will explore clean-sheet solutions that meet end-use demands and optimize whole-system resource efficiency, seeking expanding rather than diminishing returns to investments, i.e. making big savings cheaper than small ones. Students will work closely and interactively with the instructors Amory Lovins, cofounder and Chief Scientist of Rocky Mountain Institute (RMI), Dr. Joel Swisher, former RMI managing director and Stanford instructor in CEE, more recently director of the Institute for Energy Studies at Western Washington University, and Dr. Holmes Hummel, founder of Clean Energy Works. All backgrounds and disciplines, undergraduate and graduate, are welcome to enroll. There is no application this year. Solid technical grounding and acquaintance with basic economics and business concepts will be helpful. Prerequisite - completion of one of the following courses or their equivalent is required: CEE 107A/207A/ Earthsys 103, CEE 107S/ CEE 207S, CEE 176A, CEE 176B.
