INTRODUCTION
I. Program Description and Relationship to System-Level Goals
A. Briefly describe within a few paragraphs the degree program under consideration,
including (a) level; (b) emphases, including majors, concentrations, tracks, or
specializations; (c) total number of credit hours; and (d) overall purpose, including
examples of employment or education opportunities that may be available to program
graduates.
The FIU Department of Architecture, in the College of Communication, Architecture + The Arts, proposes
a 60-credit post-masters applied architectural research and professional practice Doctor of Design (DDes)
degree (Federally recognized STEM CIP 4.0902 in Architecture and Building Technology). The purpose of
the STEM-focused doctoral program is to train candidates for key leadership positions in design
investigation and in the growing related technology fields. The interdisciplinary course of study, which
includes up to 75% online learning, prepares graduates for national and international careers in the
design professions, industry, applied research, teaching, as well as leadership positions in public agencies
and municipalities. The program educates graduates to navigate disciplinary and professional
boundaries with knowledge and skills applicable both at the local and global scales. Expanding on
advances in emerging technologies, the DDes program supports research in Architecture, a STEM field.
In his support letter for the program, Anthony J. Abbate, AIA Professor and Director, School of
Architecture, and Associate Provost for the Broward Campuses at Florida Atlantic Universit states: The
proposed degree is designed to serve a growing market demand for post-professional specialized
credentials and is supported by the technological assets currently housed at FIU. While research-based
PhD degree programs prepare graduates for academic teaching and research, a DDes prepares graduates
for specialized positions in areas of advanced applied research promoting improvement in the built
environment.
The U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics predicts (2018-2028) a 8% growth in demand for architects. On net,
there will be a projected need for approximately 25,000 new architecture positions over the coming
decade5,000 due to industry growth and 20,000 due to retirements and other losses to the architecture
labor force (https://www.architectmagazine.com/aia-architect/aiafeature/how-many-architects-does-
our-economy-need_o) Large architectural firms and public agencies will require more research-trained
architects as technological advancements in visualization and fabrication are rapidly transforming the
Architecture profession. Among these technologies are automated building design with advanced
software, visualization technologies such as virtual reality and augmented reality, mass customization of
building components with robotics, and large-scale 3D printing of building elements all of which are
growing at an exponential rate. (2017 report by the McKinsey Global Institute)
The U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics also projects a 4.3% growth in demand for Postsecondary Architecture
Teachers from 2018 to 2028. https://www.bls.gov/ooh/architecture-and engineering/architects.htm
Given that the Master of Architecture degree is required for admission, that professional degree plus the
proposed research degree meets credentialing requirements for teaching in architecture programs.
The program, unique in the State of Florida, builds upon the strength of the existing accredited programs
and talented faculty at the School of Architecture, and a strong international partnership with the
University of Genoa (UNIGE). The FIU School of Architecture, founded in 1980, is composed of three
closely aligned departments: Architecture, Interior Architecture, and Landscape Architecture +
Environmental and Urban Design.
In addition, the program is supported by a growing roster of state-of-the-art technology-focused facilities
in the college, including a Robotics and Digital Fabrication Laboratory (RDF Lab), an Integrated
Computer-Assisted Virtual Environment (I-CAVE), a Structural + Environmental Technologies Lab (SET
Lab), and an Innovation Lab at the Miami Beach Urban Studios. Students enrolled in the DDes program
Page 3 of 320

gain valuable skills through specialized practicum experiences. They become eligible for research
assistantships and may accrue teaching credentials as studio instructors.
The program is designed around hybrid courses that include short residency (two weeks per year) of
intensive study within an online course. The residency periods will include lectures and workshops with
distinguished experts, seminar discussions, and studio-style critiques. The online portion will include
virtual classes with interactive discussion and individual student projects guided by faculty.
The hybrid curriculum is designed to be accessible to working professionals in Florida and the US and to
faculty in college/university departments of Architecture in Florida, as well as inside and outside the US.
The proposed program is also well positioned to serve traditionally underrepresented groups by
educating and graduating minority architects. The feeder graduate program, the Master of Architecture
(MArch) program, successfully attracts underrepresented students to FIU. Of the 540 students enrolled in
the MArch program in 2019, 53% are women, 67% Latino, and 7% African American. These numbers
exceed national averages: 40% women, 20% Latino, and 5% African American.
For all degree candidates, the DDes program requires a doctoral project based on the students original
research or creative activity.
B. Please provide the date when the pre-proposal was presented to CAVP (Council of
Academic Vice Presidents) Academic Program Coordination review group. Identify any
concerns that the CAVP review group raised with the pre-proposed program and provide
a brief narrative explaining how each of these concerns has been or is being addressed.
The pre-proposal was presented to CAVP (Council of Academic Vice Presidents) Academic Program
Coordination review group September 28, 2018. No concerns were voiced during this review.
C. If hi i a dca ee ga eae icde he eea ca e a he
end of the proposal as Appendix D. Please provide a few highlights from the report and
describe ways in which the report affected the approval process at the university.
Dr. William Braham, Professor of Architecture and Director of the Master of Environmental Building
Design and of the Center for Environmental Building + Design program at the Department of
Architecture at the University of Pennsylvania, served as the external consultant for this program
proposal. On April 9, 2019, he visited FIU and met with the Architecture faculty and chair, the dean and
college administrators, the Associate Vice President of Academic Planning and Accountability, and the
Associate Dean of the Graduate School.
Professor Braham authored a supportive letter dated April 10, 2019 (See Appendix D). Dr. Braham
begins his letter b writing: Among the primary values of advanced research degrees are to attract,
support, and develop faculty, who can in turn attract, support, and develop students capable of pursuing
independent research. I believe that this degree will serve both purposes directly, and advance the
capabilities and reputation of the Department and College. He continues by stating that the need for this
degree supports professional research: In response to the demands of new technologies, new
environmental challenges, and new regulatory mandates, the professional practice of architecture has
developed teams and specialized consultants pursuing research or analysis and academic positions:
There are limited positions in PhD programs at US Universities, so this is can be a substantial pool of
potential students. He notes that the sie of the epected student cohort and PhD Facult was sensible
and that other faculty could supervise DDes students and that It would seem sensible to develop a
mechanism for bringing them into the program, which would add to the appeal of the program and its
ability to adapt and grow.
He concludes his letter by supporting the hybrid curricular format with short residenc periods: The
idea of bringing high-level speakers to give lectures or workshops at regular intervals through the
residential period seems an excellent way to build the community and cross-fertilize the research
initiatives, allowing the cohorts to come together regularly during the period. Using the Miami Beach
Page 4 of 320
4
Urban Studios also adds an etra attraction to these periods and to the program.
Dr. Brahams insight and perceptive review underscored the value and need for this program and the
attractiveness of our unique facilit, the Miami Beach Urban Studios. In addition, based on Dr. Brahams
recommendation, we have added graduate faculty without PhDs to Appendix C because in his own
words there are also a number of other facult in the Department without PhDs who conduct advanced
level research and could supervise DDes students and benefit from working with them. The department
concurs, and believes these faculty will provide positive student support to Doctoral Project committees.
D. Describe how the proposed program is consistent with the current State University
System (SUS) Strategic Planning Goals. Identify which specific goals the program will
directly support and which goals the program will indirectly support (see link to the SUS
Strategic Plan on the resource page for new program proposal).
The goals of the DDes program are consistent with the State University System (SUS) strategic planning
goals. The SUS strategic planning goals include the following: (1) strengthen the quality and reputation of
academic programs (teaching & learning excellence goal), (2) increase degree productivity and program
efficiency (teaching & learning productivity goal), (3) increase the number of degrees awarded in STEM
and other areas of strategic emphasis (teaching & learning strategic priorities for a knowledge economy
goal), (4) strengthen the quality and reputation of scholarship, research, and innovation (scholarship,
research, and innovation excellence goal), (5) increase research and commercialization activity
(scholarship, research, and innovation productivity goal), (6) increase collaboration and external support
for research activity (scholarship, research, and innovation strategic priorities for a knowledge economy
goal), (7) strengthen the quality and recognition of commitment to community and business engagement
(community & business engagement excellence goal), (8) increase levels of community and business
engagement (community & business engagement productivity goal), and (9) meeting community and
business workforce needs (community & business engagement strategic priorities for a knowledge
economy).
(1) strengthen the quality and reputation of academic programs (teaching & learning excellence goal)
The establishment of this new degree will directly support this goal by creating one of only five post-
professional DDes programs nationwide and the only DDes program in the state of Florida. This is a
timely proposal given that the National Aptitude Test in Architecture (NATA) Executive Committee for
Education recentl determined that professional education should be at the masters degree level and that
post-professional education should be at the doctorate degree level. The current FIU Master of
Architecture (MArch) program, which is accredited by the National Architectural Accrediting Board
(NAAB), is the path to professional education while the proposed DDes will be the path to post-
professional education, signifying advanced design practice as well as applied research and scholarship
in architecture. The MArch program has established a strong reputation as evidenced by our students
obtaining high-profile jobs and internships, American Institute of Architecture awards consistently won
by our students, and a number 2 national ranking for best Masters program in Architecture by
http://www.graduateprograms.com/. FIU can leverage this reputation to recruit high quality faculty
and students for the DDes program. Additionally, the current MArch program could serve as a feeder for
the post-professional DDes program. The proposed DDes program will improve the quality and
relevance of post-professional education afforded to architects, thereby, directly supporting the SUS goal
of strengthening the quality and reputation of academic programs.
(2) increase degree productivity and program efficiency (teaching & learning productivity goal)
The post-professional DDes will directly support this goal by increasing doctoral degrees awarded by
FIU by five per year after Year 2 of implementation. Because the proposed DDes program will include a
75% online option, it will expand accessibility for adult learners who are already employed in the
profession and in universities both in the US and other countries. Lectures offered during the doctoral
students short residency periods also will be open to advanced fifth-year students in the School of
Architecture, enhancing their learning as well.

(3) increase the number of degrees awarded in STEM and other areas of strategic emphasis (teaching &
learning strategic priorities for a knowledge economy goal)
This new program will directly support this goal by increasing the number of FIU STEM degrees at the
doctoral level. Architecture is a STEM discipline recognized by NSF and other funding agencies, therefore
the DDes program directly increases degrees awarded in Federal STEM categories by five per year. This
CIP code is slated to be added to the BOG revised Programs of Strategic Emphasis list. It increases
student access and success at the highest levels of STEM fields that respond to existing, evolving, and
emerging critical needs and opportunities.
(4) strengthen the quality and reputation of scholarship, research, and innovation (scholarship,
research, and innovation excellence goal)
The proposed DDes program will directly support this goal by advancing students readiness to perform
at the highest levels of the professional field, enhancing the quality of their scholarship, research, and
innovation. The DDes students will complete an applied research project that will culminate in the
submission of abstract proposals and manuscripts to professional conferences and peer-reviewed
journals, respectively. New venues for publication of research in Architecture have recently opened to
support increased research activity internationally. As students and graduates of FIU, their stature in the
field will enhance the reputation of the University. The program includes short but intensive residencies
when distinguished lecturers will be invited to enhance on-campus coursework. These lectures and
workshops at the Miami Beach Urban Studios will encourage collaborative research at the highest levels
of the field, which students will continue to pursue remotely. Bringing together expertise will enhance
scholarship, research, and innovation for all participants and will build FIUs reputation.
(5) increase research and commercialization activity (scholarship, research, and innovation
productivity goal) and (6) increase collaboration and external support for research activity
(scholarship, research, and innovation strategic priorities for a knowledge economy goal)
The proposed DDes program focuses on research and professional expertise. Many of the doctoral
projects will engage areas of faculty research that currently have external support or will be developed to
apply for external support. This will directly support an increase in scholarship and research
productivity. Collaborations with faculty members will be encouraged as will collaborations outside FIU.
Because the program requires only short residency periods many students will develop collaborative
teams in their home companies and institutions, which can open new associations and opportunities for
FIU. Student projects, including those that focus on professional expertise, may lead to
commercialization opportunities or business start-ups. Currently master-level students have participated
in funded faculty research and have developed start-up businesses based on their degree projects.
(7) strengthen the quality and recognition of commitment to community and business engagement
(community & business engagement excellence goal), (8) increase levels of community and business
engagement (community & business engagement productivity goal), and (9) meeting community and
business workforce needs (community & business engagement strategic priorities for a knowledge
economy)
DDes graduates will directly support these goals by increasing FIUs connections to Miamis professional
architectural community and the field at large. Their success will enhance FIUs alread ecellent
reputation and will open new opportunities for engagement and innovation. FIU Department of
Architecture already enjoys a reputation for producing excellent masters-level graduates who are
employed as professionals in the field and often become influential leaders in the community and abroad.
Increasingly, the global market for architectural design requires innovative research to develop new
techniques of design, fabrication, and construction in a highly competitive field. Miami has become a
center for Architecture with many firms working globally at the highest levels of the field. They also are
pursuing research within their firms to support innovations at the cutting edge of the field. The proposed
DDes program will educate students who are already professionals to meet this increasing and
specialized need. Graduates of the DDes program will be valuable assets to the top firms and are
positioned to contribute to the advancement of the field both locally and internationally.
E. If the program is to be included in a category within the Programs of Strategic Emphasis
as described in the SUS Strategic Plan, please indicate the category and the justification
Page 6 of 320

for inclusion.
The Programs of Strategic Emphasis Categories:
1. Critical Workforce:
Education
Health
Gap Analysis
2. Economic Development:
Global Competitiveness
3. Science, Technology, Engineering, and Math (STEM)
Please see the Programs of Strategic Emphasis (PSE) methodology for additional explanations
on program inclusion criteria at the resource page for new program proposal.
The Category for this program, effective 2020-21, is: Science, Technology, Engineering, and Math (STEM).
The Doctor of Design is designated as CIP 4.0902, Architectural and Building Sciences/Technology. This
Federal and State STEM designation reflects the programs focus on STEM-related subjects such as:
technologies of computer tools and applications, visualization, fabrication, building science,
sustainability, and building performance. In the first semester of this program, two of the three required
courses are STEM related. The first course, Theories of the Digital, provides students with a theoretical
framework by which to understand and appraise the impact of the digital not only on architectural
design and fabrication, but also on urban life in general. The second course, Advanced Studies in
Technology focuses on emerging technologies including robotics, digital fabrication, sensing, and
advanced visualization tools (virtual and augmented reality). This course will examine the fundamental
applications driving these technologies and their utility in architectural design. The course will be
composed of two parts: part one will focus on innovative ways of integrating these technologies into
architectural production, and part two will focus on their impact on architectural design methodologies
and research. The face-to-face residencies will afford more examples of these emerging technologies to be
examined and applied to design production. Each students doctoral project research will apply these
principles to an identified problem.
F. Identify any established or planned educational sites at which the program is expected to
be offered and indicate whether it will be offered only at sites other than the main campus.
The program will be offered at the Modesto A. Maidique Campus. Research facilities include the FIU
Miami Beach Urban Studios (MBUS), which will also be used for a few selected face-to-face experiences
in the program.

Economic and Professional Need and Demand
The US Bureau of Labor Statistics expects a 8% growth in architecture jobs over the next decade (2018-
2028) with the addition of 11,200 new jobs nationwide. https://www.bls.gov/ooh/architecture-and-
engineering/architects.htm
Page 7 of 320

On net, there will be a projected need for approximately 25,000 new architecture positions over the
coming decade5,000 due to industry growth and 20,000 due to retirements and other losses to the
architecture labor force.
- From: How may architects does our economy need? By AIA chief economist Kermit Baker, Hon. AIA, is a senior
research fellow at Harvard University and project director of its Remodeling Futures Program, January 5, 2018
https://www.architectmagazine.com/aia-architect/aiafeature/how-many-architects-does-our-economy-
need_o
According to the US Bureau of Labor Statistics, Florida ranks 5
th
in the country with the highest
employment of architects with an annual mean wage of $77,550.
https://www.bls.gov/oes/current/oes171011.htm#st
The Bureau is also projecting a 4.3% growth in demand for Postsecondary Architecture Teachers from
2018 to 2028. (https://data.bls.gov/projections/occupationProj) Employment opportunities for
postsecondary architecture teachers will increase and will become more competitive. The Association of
Collegiate Schools of Architectures website posts national and international openings. Increasingl, the
jobs posted on this site require or prefer doctoral level education. See: https://www.acsa-
arch.org/opportunities/find-a-job
The proposed doctoral program specifically responds to the increasing demand for architects specializing
in research and teaching. This need is particularly important for Florida, as it is the 5
th
highest state for
architectural employment. Along with its projected growth, the profession will remain competitive and
the Doctor of Design will provide job seekers with an important expertise. Letters of support from local
architectural firms (Appendix E) indicate support for the professional doctorate as providing knowledge
and skills beneficial for advanced practice.
In his support letter for the program, Anthony J. Abbate, AIA Professor and Director, School of
Architecture, and Associate Provost for the Broward Campuses at Florida Atlantic University states: The
proposed degree is designed to serve a growing market demand for post-professional specialized
credentials and is supported by the technological assets currently housed at FIU. While research-based
PhD degree programs prepare graduates for academic teaching and research, a DDes prepares graduates
for specialized positions in areas of advanced applied research promoting improvement in the built
environment. He continues his support b stating, The DDes would be the first in the State Universit
System of Florida and would fill a gap in the portfolio of degree offerings available in our state as
demand for professional leadership and epertise in the field has grown significantl over the ears.
(Appendix E)
We expect this program to be competitive for its uniqueness. It will be the only DDes program in the
State of Florida. This doctorate degree brings together technological capability, problem solving skills,
and professional practice-based opportunities for research and specialization. It is:

Letters of support from local architectural firms (Appendix E) indicate that our graduates earning
potential would improve with a professional doctorate.
Furthermore, according to the US Bureau of Labor Statistics, 2019:
Unemployment rate and earnings by educational attainment, 2019
Doctoral degrees have higher median usual weekly earnings $1,883 versus Masters $1,497 and
Professional Degrees $1,861
Doctoral degrees have lower unemployment rate 1.1% versus Masters 2% and Professional Degrees
1.6%https://www.bls.gov/emp/chart-unemployment-earnings-education.htm
Research Needs: Visualization, Advanced Fabrication Technologies, and Urbanism
The 2017 report by the McKinsey Global Institute estimates that b 2030, 75 million to 375 million
workers (three to 14 percent of the global workforce) will need to switch occupational categories due to
automation.
https://www.mckinsey.com/~/media/mckinsey/featured%20insights/future%20of%20organizations/

%20jobs%20lost-jobs%20gained_report_december%202017.ashx
While this statistic warns us of significant shifts in the workforce, it also presents an opportunity for
creating new talents, jobs, industries, and ways of production. The core challenge, however, is to adjust
our educational system to equip students for the critical thinking and skills required to face the future.
Technological advancements in visualization and fabrication are rapidly transforming the Architecture
profession. Among these technologies are automated building design with advanced software,
visualization technologies such as virtual reality and augmented reality, mass customization of building
components with robotics, and large-scale 3D printing of building elements all of which are growing at
an exponential rate.
According to the World Economic Forum, http://reports.weforum.org/future-of-jobs-
2016/employment-trends/ resource-efficient sustainable production and robotics are all seen as strong
drivers of employment growth in the Architecture and Engineering job family, in light of a continued and
fast-growing need for specialists to create and manage advanced and automated production systems.
The need for architects with advanced technological capability will become a critical aspect of
professional, research, and educational leadership. Like all other sectors of the economy, the demand for
architects will move from the people who could perform routine jobs to either highly skilled workers or
thought leaders.
In his support letter for the program, world-renowned architect Patrik Schumacher, Principal of Zaha
Hadid Architects, states that he was himself a recipient of a doctorate from a program similar to that
which is proposed and notes that new professionals and educators reason for taking a doctoral
programme is to advance their careers and give them qualifications that are likely to increase the
potential of gaining research funding. (Appendix E)
Over the past three years, in collaboration with the School of Computer Science, CARTA has made an
investment of $1.4 M to create the technological infrastructure and resources to support education,
research, and innovation in this area. These resources include FIUs Integrated Computer-Assisted
Virtual Environment (I-CAVE), a high-end visualization instrument, and the Robotics and Digital
Manufacturing Lab (RDF), which is equipped with large-scale robotic arms and state-of-the-art digital
fabrication tools. These facilities not only offer leading edge technologies for invention and
entrepreneurship, but also are becoming the necessary resources to conduct advanced research. These
resources have created a competitive advantage for FIU Architecture. These investments have important
community engagement applications, for example, the Visualizing Hurricane Katrina project used
National Oceanographic and Atmospheric Administration and the University Corporation for
Atmospheric Research data sets to create a scaled and interactive stereographic 3D model of Hurricane

Katrina by parsing approximately 2GB of satellite and radar data.
In summary, the proposed program is designed to educate students to meet the future research needs in
these areas by training them through computational technologies, advanced research, and urbanism, so
that they may become innovators for the design and building industries and/or educational leaders in
this area.

and cost of living followed by not having enough time. (All three answers were the highest choice.)
I would consider enrolling in the program if:
Ninety percent of students surveyed would consider enrolling in the program if they received a full
assistantship to complete the degree.
I would consider the program if:
Sixty-six percent of the students would consider the program if it had a study abroad or an internship or
practicum component. (Editors note: Although no internship or stud abroad is required in the
proposed degree, faculty research and that which is developed by the doctoral student may include
practical experience either locally or internationally.)
There was a high interest as well if the program were partially online (35%).
FIU asserts that the two surveys provided documentation of substantial interest in the program, which
was used to progress into the program proposal and consultant phase. Since the time of the surveys,
student and alumni interest have been maintained through personal communications and updates.
C. If substantially similar programs (generally at the four-digit CIP Code or 60 percent similar
in core courses), either private or public exist in the state, identify the institution(s) and
geographic location(s). Summarize the outcome(s) of communication with such programs
with regard to the potential impact on their enrollment and opportunities for possible
collaboration (instruction and research). In Appendix C, provide data that support the need
for an additional program.
In the State of Florida, there are no other DDes programs (professional doctorate) in any institution of
higher education, public, or private. Additionally, there is no program in the SUS with CIP code 4.0902,
graduate or undergraduate (the University of Miami received this CIP designation for its undergraduate
and masters architecture programs in 2018). The University of Florida College of Design, Construction
and Planning has a PhD program, CIP 4.0201, based in Gainesville. The Florida State University
Department of Urban and Regional Planning has a PhD program, CIP 4.0301, based in Tallahassee.
During a CAVP Academic Program Coordination review group call reviewing the DDes pre-proposal,
Florida A&M University (FAMU) expressed positive comments in support and suggested that FAMU
could partner with the program to provide some of its graduates with post-professional degree
opportunities. Subsequently a letter of support was received. (Appendix E).

D. Use Table 1 in Appendix A (1-A for undergraduate and 1-B for graduate) to categorize
projected student headcount (HC) and Full Time Equivalents (FTE) according to primary
sources. Generally undergraduate FTE will be calculated as 30 credit hours per year and
graduate FTE will be calculated as 24 credit hours per year. Describe the rationale
underlying enrollment projections. If students within the institution are expected to
change majors to enroll in the proposed program at its inception, describe the shifts from
disciplines that will likely occur.
Projected headcount is to admit five students/year (spring term) with a total of all cohorts of 16 in Year 5.
(See Table 1-B Grad Enrollment, Appendix A along with a Headcount + Cal tab to better eplain the
determinations for Table 1-B) This number reflects a student/faculty ratio of 2:1 (three current faculty are
eligible to teach in the program with one search in process, for a total of four). By Year 2, each faculty will
advise two students, one in the first year and one in the second year of the program. These numbers are
comparable to those of the professional doctoral programs offered by NC State, LSU, and Washington
University.
Note that the program start date for each cohort is spring term. Program completion (two years to
complete) will occur in the fall. Thus, by Year 3, the headcount includes three cohorts, with enrollment of
the first cohort graduating in fall and the third cohort starting that same year in spring. FTE calculations
reflect this programmatic feature and are diagramed in the Headcount + Cal tab in Appendix A.
E. Indicate what steps will be taken to achieve a diverse student body in this program. If the
proposed program substantially duplicates a program at FAMU or FIU, provide, (in
consultation with the affected university), an analysis of how the program might have an

Opportunity Officer shall review this section of the proposal and then sign and date
Appendix B to indicate that the analysis required by this subsection has been completed.

The proposed program is also well positioned to serve traditionally underrepresented groups by
educating and graduating minority architects. The feeder graduate program, the MArch program,
successfully attracts underrepresented students to FIU. Of the 479 students enrolled in the MArch
program in 2017, 53% are women, 66% Latino, 12.5%, and 7% African American. These numbers
compare favorably with national averages: 40% women, 20% Latino, and 5% African American. On
August 17, 2018, the department faculty met to adopt a diversity and inclusion plan. The plan states: The
FIU Department of Architecture is committed to seek and maintain a faculty that is diverse in its
individual composition, topics of study, approaches to scholarship, and pedagogy. The Department of
Architectures concept of diversit encompasses acceptance and respecting that each individual is unique
in order to create a safe, positive, and nurturing environment. The Department of Architecture defines
diversity along the dimensions of race, ethnicity, gender, sexual orientation, socio-economic status, age,
physical abilities, religious beliefs, political beliefs, or other ideologies. We aspire to reflect the diversity
of our student bod. The plan then outlines measures to attain a diverse student and faculty body.
III. Budget
A. Use Table 2 in Appendix A to display projected costs and associated funding sources for
Year 1 and Year 5 of program operation. Use Table 3 in Appendix A to show how existing
Education & General funds will be shifted to support the new program in Year 1. In
narrative form, summarize the contents of both tables, identifying the source of both
current and new resources to be devoted to the proposed program. (Data for Year 1 and
Year 5 reflect snapshots in time rather than cumulative costs.)
Table 2.
The current Master of Architecture (MArch) program has over 450 majors, and this new program
represents a negligible increase in students. No additional expenses other than faculty time and
assistantships will be attributed to its budget cost. Year 1: Existing Education & General funds will be
shifted to support the new program in Year 1 by an adjustment of the annual assignments of four PhD
faculty to teach and advise the cohorts of five doctoral students. These new assignments will be part of
teaching and service. Additionally, a small amount of existing staff time will be allocated to support this
program.
Assistantships will be funded in Year 1 by the College of Communication, Architecture + the Arts
Foundation sources.
Year 5: E&G funds for faculty effort will be supported by contracts, grants, and philanthropy for
assistantships. The approval of the degree program will afford fund raising opportunities to solicit
specific partnerships with industry to support assistantships, as well as grant solicitations in support of
faculty research with graduate assistantship opportunities.
Dean Brian Schriner confirmed the allocation of CARTA foundation funds for this programs
implementation.
For contract and grant funding, see below section III.E. regarding current NSF awards, which are
expected going forward to include doctoral assistantships. Given the departments grant awards, it is
projected that the presence of a professional doctorate will enhance future grant applications.
Table 3.
Existing Education & General funds will be shifted to support the new program in Year 1.
B. Please explain whether the university intends to operate the program through continuing
education, seek approval for market tuition rate, or establish a differentiated graduate-
level tuition. Provide a rationale for doing so and a timeline for seeking Board of
Ge aa, if aiae. Please include the expected rate of tuition that the
university plans to charge for this program and use this amount when calculating cost
Page 13 of 320

entries in Table 2.
This program will not be operated through continuing education FIUs current graduate tuition is
$379.95 per credit for residents and $900 for non-residents. FIUs current graduate tuition and fees are
$455.64 per credit for residents and $1,001.69 for non-residents (Per credit fees for in-state include $75.69
plus per semester fees of $10 for intercollegiate athletics, $93.69 for student health services, and $95.13 for
transportation access out-of-state students pay per credit fees of $101.69 plus semester fees noted above.
Source, FIU 2020-2021 Graduate Catalog). The program is 60 credits. As designed, recent MArch degree
students may apply 15 identified credit hours from the 174-credit masters degree to the DDes (see
Section VIII. C). However, the total cost of tuition plus per credit fees for a self-paying in-state student,
without the benefit of transferring 15 recent MArch credits, is approximately $455.64 X 60 = $27,338 plus
semester fees for each semester enrolled.
C. If other programs will be impacted by a reallocation of resources for the proposed program,
identify the impacted programs and provide a justification for reallocating resources.
Specifically address the potential negative impacts that implementation of the proposed
program will have on related undergraduate programs (i.e., shift in faculty effort,
reallocation of instructional resources, reduced enrollment rates, greater use of adjunct
faculty and teaching assistants). Explain what steps will be taken to mitigate any such
impacts. Also, discuss the potential positive impacts that the proposed program might
have on related undergraduate programs (i.e., increased undergraduate research
opportunities, improved quality of instruction associated with cutting-edge research,
improved labs and library resources).
The current budget for the department is more than $2.3M. It is proposed that only a minimal amount of
financial resources would be reallocated for this program ($28,610 in Year 1). This reallocation is justified
by the enhanced benefits outlined in Section I. The department only issues graduate degrees (Master of
Arts in Architecture and Master of Architecture) and this new degree will, therefore, have no negative
impact on undergraduate programs. The faculty that are assigned to work on this program currently are
supporting our Master of Arts in Architecture (a post-professional research degree). The Master of Arts in
Architecture program will be discontinued once this doctorate is in place, resulting in minimal
adjustments in existing faculty workloads. The advanced electives offered by this program enhance the
learning experience for fifth-year Master of Architecture students.
D. Describe other potential impacts on related programs or departments (e.g., increased need
for general education or common prerequisite courses, or increased need for required or
elective courses outside of the proposed major).
No other departments or programs are impacted by this program.
E. Describe what steps have been taken to obtain information regarding resources (financial
and in-kind) available outside the institution (businesses, industrial organizations,
governmental entities, etc.). Describe the external resources that appear to be available to
support the proposed program.
The proposed program will expand access to external funding and, thus, to research and instructional
opportunities for students and faculty. It will open doors for students interested in post-professional
academic and applied research. At FIU, the proposed program will ultimately expand program
competitiveness and serve to attract, retain, and graduate the very best students. It will also support the
recruitment of excellent research faculty. This STEM doctorate allies funding agencies that give
preferences to STEM research at the highest academic levels. Being a Federally recognized STEM
discipline by funding agencies will allow architecture faculty to pursue these funding programs, as well
as increase their chances of success in obtaining funding in general. It will also further strengthen the
potential of developing interdisciplinary collaborations in which architecture faculty play a leading role.
According to the 2018, ACSA White Paper on Architectural Education Research and STEM, 4.3 Funding

Sources for STEM Projects: With regard to funding sources, the surve showed that STEM-related
architectural research projects receive funding from a wide range of funding sources including federal
agencies, foundations, associations, industr, and well as state and local sources. Thirty projects (33%)
received funding from federal agencies, including 25 from federal agencies in North America. Funding
from federal agencies in North America totaled approximately $10,000,000. Out of those, 13 projects were
funded by the National Science Foundation (NSF) with a total funding of $4,300,000. Other Federal
sources included NIH, NPS, the US Dept. of the Navy, US DOE, US DOT, and The Social Sciences and
Humanities Research Council of Canada. Foundations such as the Alfred P. Sloan Foundation, the
Auerbach Theater Architecture Fund, Graham Foundation, and others were listed as the second most
common source of funding with 19% (17) of the projects no ng these. Industry grants from Autodesk and
Ford Motor Company and grants from Associations such as the AIA were other notable contributors for
research funds.
The department has a proven record of achieving federal funding for research.

IV. Projected Benefit of the Program to the University, Local Community, and State
Ue ifai f Tabe 1 ad 2 i Aedi A, ad he ig aaie f Need
ad Dead eae a ccie aee ha decibe he jeced beefit to the
university, local community, and the state if the program is implemented. The projected
benefits can be both quantitative and qualitative in nature, but there needs to be a clear
distinction made between the two in the narrative.
The proposed DDes program benefits the University by contributing to research at the highest levels of a
STEM field, an area of strategic emphasis. Quantitatively, the DDes will increase degree productivity and
program efficiency by increasing doctoral degrees awarded by FIU by five per year after Year 2 of
implementation. The DDes will be one of only five post-professional DDes programs nationwide and the
only DDes program in the state of Florida. DDes students will work with faculty on research projects that
increasingly will be funded externally, thus enhancing the reputation of the School of Architecture and
the value of all architecture degrees. Some DDes students will teach directly in the existing Master of
Architecture program, and all will give presentations of their work to all other architecture students.
Qualitatively, the DDes will benefit the local community by educating local students to compete at the
highest levels of the architecture profession with this advanced STEM degree. Many program graduates
will choose to work locally in architecture firms that increasingly practice at a global scale. Their work
will contribute to research in the field and enhance the professional economy of Miami and the State of
Florida. Other graduates may teach in universities locally that offer architecture degrees: Miami Dade
College, Florida Atlantic University, and FIU, or secondary schools that offer courses in architecture.
Program graduates are also qualified to teach in other parts of the state, other states, and internationally.
V. Access and Articulation Bache Degee O
A. If the total number of credit hours to earn a degree exceeds 120, provide a justification for
an exception to the policy of a 120 maximum and submit a separate request to the Board of
Ge f a ecei ag ih ificai f he ga aa. (See cieia
in Board of Governors Regulation 6C-8.014)
Not applicable.
B. List program prerequisites and provide assurance that they are the same as the approved
common prerequisites for other such degree programs within the SUS (see link to the
Common Prerequisite Manual on the resource page for new program proposal). The
courses in the Common Prerequisite Counseling Manual are intended to be those that are
required of both native and transfer students prior to entrance to the major program, not
simply lower-level courses that are required prior to graduation. The common
prerequisites and substitute courses are mandatory for all institution programs listed, and
must be approved by the Articulation Coordinating Committee (ACC). This requirement
icde he ga deigaed a iied acce.
Page 16 of 320
16
If the proposed prerequisites are not listed in the Manual, provide a rationale for a request
for exception to the policy of common prerequisites. NOTE: Typically, all lower-division
courses required for admission into the major will be considered prerequisites. The
curriculum can require lower-division courses that are not prerequisites for admission into
the major, as long as those courses are built into the curriculum for the upper-level 60 credit
hours. If there are already common prerequisites for other degree programs with the same
proposed CIP, every effort must be made to utilize the previously approved prerequisites
iead f ecedig a addiia ack f eeiie f ha CIP. Addiia
tracks may not be approved by the ACC, thereby holding up the full approval of the degree
program. Programs will not be entered into the State University System Inventory until any
exceptions to the approved common prerequisites are approved by the ACC.
Not applicable.
C. If the university intends to seek formal Limited Access status for the proposed program,
provide a rationale that includes an analysis of diversity issues with respect to such a
designation. Explain how the university will ensure that Florida College System transfer
students are not disadvantaged by the Limited Access status. NOTE: The policy and
criteria for Limited Access are identified in Board of Governors Regulation 6C-8.013.
Submit the Limited Access Program Request form along with this document.
Not applicable.
D. If the proposed program is an AS-to-BS capstone, ensure that it adheres to the guidelines
approved by the Articulation Coordinating Committee for such programs, as set forth in
Rule 6A-10.024 (see link to the Statewide Articulation Manual on the resource page for new
program proposal). List the prerequisites, if any, including the specific AS degrees which
may transfer into the program.
Not applicable.
INSTITUTIONAL READINESS
VI. Related Institutional Mission and Strength
A. Describe how the goals of the proposed program relate to the institutional mission
statement as contained in the SUS Strategic Plan and the University Strategic Plan (see link
to the SUS Strategic Plan on the resource page for new program proposal).
FIU Mission Statement
Florida International University is an urban, multi-campus, public research university serving its
students and the diverse population of South Florida. We are committed to high-quality teaching, state-
of-the-art research and creative activity, and collaborative engagement with our local and global
communities.
Program Alignment ih FIU Mission
The DDes is closely aligned with the three ke components of FIUs mission: high-quality teaching,
research, and collaborative engagement.
High-Quality Teaching
The Department of Architecture, through its DDes, will continue to serve a diverse student body with a
variety of academic backgrounds, experiences, and interests by creating an open atmosphere of inquiry
and exchange that engages the varied cultural and academic experiences of faculty and students.
Page 17 of 320
17
Presenting architecture as a reflective and conceptually based discipline, the faculty will encourage DDes
students to form thoughtful and imaginative solutions to the challenges confronting urban society here
and abroad and to cultivate intellectual curiosity and life-long learning. The students will be taught the
disciplinary norms of knowledge and the skills necessary to take leadership roles in a changing
profession.
Research
The DDes will support faculty research by giving students opportunities to work on faculty projects.
Each student will also pursue an independent doctoral project. Faculty and student research will
enhance the research environment at FIU and facilitate engagement across disciplines, including STEM
and the humanities fields. The research will enhance innovation and collaboration in creating solutions
for our community and beyond.
Architecture faculty have on-going research that include active Federal grants (NSF: IUSE, NSF: CREST),
particularly in visualization and sustainability. The doctoral program will increase opportunities for
faculty to expand research programs and to develop sponsored research. Doctoral students may work
with faculty on research proposals and on funded research projects, either as part of their own doctoral
projects or as graduate assistants. Their skills and year-to-year duration in the program will enhance
sponsored research in visualization and sustainability.
Collaborative Engagement
The Department of Architecture will continue to foster sensitivity and appreciation for the constructed
and natural environments of South Florida and engaging our communities challenges. The department
values the unique opportunities and challenges for creative exploration and problem-solving afforded by
South Floridas rich sub-tropical ecologies, urban contexts, as well as multicultural and multilingual
populace.
The Architecture facult participates in FIUs collaborative engagement centers and institutes, including
the Institute of Environment and the Extreme Events Institute. The proposed doctoral program will
expand this participation. For example, through the Extreme Events Institute, Architecture faculty and
doctoral students may pursue opportunities to collaborate on initiatives including Visualization of
Hazards and Disaster Risk and Resilience in the Americas programs. Architecture faculty members are
currently collaborating with other faculty across the University in several Institute of Environment
initiatives and funded grant projects, including the Southeast Environmental Research Center, the Florida
Coastal Everglades Long Term Ecological Research Program, the Sea Level Solutions Center, and the
research unit of the Sustainable Built Environment and Informatics. Faculty research and doctoral
student projects could further contribute to these initiatives through interdisciplinary collaboration
designed to solve critical problems in our region.
B. Describe how the proposed program specifically relates to existing institutional strengths,
such as programs of emphasis, other academic programs, and/or institutes and centers.
The DDES supports the efforts of FIUs existing Institute of Environment in a significant way. This
institute involves 60 countries, $40,000,000 in research funding and has produced 1,200 peer reviewed
publications. In collaboration with local and international partners, the Institute of Environment works to
increase community resilience across the globe; and to develop adaptive management of terrestrial,
freshwater, coastal, and marine resources. Over the past three years, the Department of Architecture has
had faculty including Professor Shahin Vassigh and Assistant Professor Biayna Bogosian and five
graduate students (each supported by $21,000 of graduate assistantships) conduct research at the
Institutes Centers of Research Excellence in Science and Technology (CREST) which is an NSF supported
Center. This engagement has brought a new perspective to the centers research by integrating the
challenges of the sustainability of built environment with the natural environment. The DDes students
can expand this research and strengthen the interdisciplinary research at the Institute.

Accreditation
The Master of Architecture program has been accredited by The National Architectural Accrediting
Board (NAAB) since January 1999. The program was re-accredited in 2002, 2009, 2011, and in 2017 for an
8-year accreditation term. Each re-accreditation required a NAAB team site visit and resulting Visiting
Team report. The program also submits annual Statistical Reports.
In the NAAB February 22, 2017, Visiting Team Report, the team stated that the program met all the 26
Student Performance Criteria (provided below) of the 2014 Conditions for Accreditation except two (B1 &
D1). The program addressed these deficiencies as follows:
To address the Not Met for B1: The department instituted a required programming exercise in
the Sustainable Design Studio with Professor Reads supervision.

Compact or include the document itself as an appendix.
The mission of the Doctor of Design is to advance architectural research and expand professional
practice. The purpose of this STEM-focused doctoral program is to train candidates for key leadership
positions in architectural design and the growing related technology fields. It prepares candidates for
national and international careers in the design professions, industry, applied research, teaching, as well
as leadership positions in public agencies and municipalities. The program educates graduates to
navigate disciplinary and professional boundaries with knowledge and skills applicable both at the local
and global scales. The student learning outcomes that follow are aligned with these goals. Doctor of
Design graduates will demonstrate:
1. The ability to contribute to architectural design knowledge through the completion of the doctoral
project that leads to submission for presentation at a professional meeting and/or publication in a peer-
reviewed journal.
To meet this SLO, DDes students would demonstrate knowledge of emerging Architectural technologies
that incorporates robotics processes for design and construction, advanced digital fabrication, sensor
integration with building components, and data visualization technologies in building design and
construction.
2. Effective communication skills to develop a project, organize it around a central theme, and
demonstrate a command of representational conventions and documentation.
To meet this SLO, DDes students would demonstrate a high level of communication skills that are
informed by advanced knowledge of digital design and visualization tools (virtual and augmented
reality) of applicable to architectural building design technological.
3. Ability to investigate and evaluate available evidence, analyze and synthesize ideas and research
findings, and create new knowledge for their doctoral project.
In order to establish timely research, the DDes student would need to demonstrate specialized industry
knowledge of building industry and architectural technologies. This includes the ability to apply
advanced technologies to building design and construction, for delivering efficient design, construction,
and operation of buildings, solar design, building conservation, and climate-conscious design.

ARC 7XXX, 3 credits, Doctoral Defense
The formal presentation of the Doctoral Project. The Doctoral Project defense announcement is an
invitation to members of the University community to observe and participate in the defense. All the
committee members must be in attendance.
F. For degree programs in the science and technology disciplines, discuss how industry-
driven competencies were identified and incorporated into the curriculum and indicate
whether any industry advisory council exists to provide input for curriculum development
and student assessment.
This research-focused degree does not emphasize industry-driven competencies. This question is more
related to other degree programs, such as the professional Master of Architecture (MArch), and thus is
not directly applicable to the DDes.
G. For all programs, list the specialized accreditation agencies and learned societies that
would be concerned with the proposed program. Will the university seek accreditation
for the program if it is available? If not, why? Provide a brief timeline for seeking
accreditation, if appropriate.
The Doctor of Design is a post-professional program and will not seek specialized accreditation. Since
the focus of specialized accreditation is on professional competency attainment, these criteria are not
appropriately applied to this research-focused degree.
H. For doctoral programs, list the accreditation agencies and learned societies that would be
concerned with cedig bache ae ga aciaed ih he
proposed program. Are the programs accredited? If not, why?
The National Architectural Accrediting Board (NAAB) accredits the Departments professional Master of
Architecture degree. Currently, this program is accredited through 2025.
I. Briefly describe the anticipated delivery system for the proposed program (e.g., traditional
delivery on main campus; traditional delivery at branch campuses or centers; or
nontraditional delivery such as distance or distributed learning, self-paced instruction, or
external degree programs). If the proposed delivery system will require specialized
services or greater than normal financial support, include projected costs in Table 2 in
Appendix A. Provide a narrative describing the feasibility of delivering the proposed
program through collaboration with other universities, both public and private. Cite
specific queries made of other institutions with respect to shared courses,
distance/distributed learning technologies, and joint-use facilities for research or
internships.
The program is designed around the delivery of hybrid courses that include short residency (one or two
weeks per semester) of intensive study within an online course. The residency periods will include
lectures and workshops with distinguished experts, seminar discussions, and studio-style critiques. The
online portion will include virtual classes with interactive discussion and individual student projects
guided by faculty. The hybrid curriculum is designed to be accessible to working professionals and to
faculty in departments of Architecture. Each year, short residency periods will be held at MBUS. During
that period in residence, students will also meet with their doctoral project advisor.
IX. Faculty Participation
A. Use Table 4 in Appendix A to identify existing and anticipated full-time (not visiting or
adjunct) faculty who will participate in the proposed program through Year 5. Include (a)
faculty code associated with the source of funding for the position; (b) name; (c) highest
Page 26 of 320
26
degree held; (d) academic discipline or specialization; (e) contract status (tenure, tenure-
earning, or multi-year annual [MYA]); (f) contract length in months; and (g) percent of
annual effort that will be directed toward the proposed program (instruction, advising,
supervising internships and practica, and supervising thesis or dissertation hours).
See Table 4 in Appendix A for the four faculty members, including one new hires participation in the
doctorate program.
B. Use Table 2 in Appendix A to display the costs and associated funding resources for
existing and anticipated full-time faculty (as identified in Table 4 in Appendix A). Costs
for visiting and adjunct faculty should be included in the category of Other Personnel
Services (OPS). Provide a narrative summarizing projected costs and funding sources.
The budget reflects the defined portion of the salary of the four faculty who will be teaching in the
doctorate program. These positions are currently E&G lines and their workloads will be adjusted to allow
for teaching and research supervision in the new program. No adjuncts or visiting faculty will teach in
the doctoral program.
The new content courses developed for this program will also service advanced Master of Architecture
students, thus only 50% of each course is attributed to the cost of this new degree. During the last year of
the MArch degree, students complete their Masters Project, thus are focused on research. High-
performing MArch students will be allowed to enroll in one elective course taken with DDes students.
The total enrollment of DDes and MArch students will be approximately 10-12. Funds to support the
faculty reassignment to these new courses will come from the planned phase out of the Master of Arts in
Architecture degree in the Architecture CIP, which currently serves as a post-professional research
degree program.
C. Provide in the appendices the abbreviated curriculum vitae (CV) for each existing faculty
member (do not include information for visiting or adjunct faculty).
See Appendix C for faculty vitae for those listed in Table 4. In addition, based on Dr. Brahams
recommendation (External Reviewer, Section I.C.), we have added graduate faculty without PhDs to
Appendix C because in his own words there are also a number of other facult in the Department
without PhDs who conduct advanced level research and could supervise DDes students and benefit from
working with them. The department concurs, and believes these faculty will provide positive student
support to Doctoral Project committees. These are all full-time faculty in the School of Architecture and
will not be teaching in the proposed program.
D. Provide evidence that the academic unit(s) associated with this new degree have been
productive in teaching, research, and service. Such evidence may include trends over time
for average course load, FTE productivity, student HC in major or service courses, degrees
granted, external funding attracted, as well as qualitative indicators of excellence.

subsection B have been reviewed and approved.
Institutional Context and Administrative Structure:
The FIU University Libraries system includes four individual libraries and several service centers. The
Green Library at the Modesto A. Maidique Campus houses the majority of the research and archival
collections, including the Sound & Image Department, Special Collections & Archives, and the Digital
Collections Center. The Hubert Library at the Biscayne Bay Campus primarily consists of
undergraduate-level materials, with focused research collections for degree programs hosted at BBC.
The College of Law Library and Herbert Wertheim College of Medicine Library are located on the
Modesto A. Maidique Campus; although their primary clientele are the students in the professional
programs, these libraries support the entire FIU community. Additionally, the students and faculty in
The Engineering Center (one mile from the Modesto A. Maidique Campus) are served by the
Engineering Library Services unit, and coursework taken at FIU @ I-75 are supported by two distance
learning service librarians who work primarily from the Green Library.
The major components of the Architecture Collection are housed on the 5th floor of the Green Library at
the Modesto A. Maidique Campus. The Art & Architecture print materials, both books and journals,
classified within the Library of Congress subject heading N, are conveniently located immediately
adjacent to the Sound & Image Department that houses the visual components. Interdisciplinary
materials, including Landscape Architecture Materials in the SB classification, are located on the 3rd, 6th,
and 7th floors. Visual collections in this area include an Art & Architecture slide collection with slide
views, projectors, and light tables. A Reading Room, dedicated to the needs of the Architecture students,
is available for check-out at the Sound & Image Desk. The 5th floor area also includes desktop
computers, individual study carrels, open study tables, and group study rooms.
The School of Architecture needs are further supported by the Map & Imagery User Services/Geographic
Information Systems Center (MIUS-GIS), located on the 2nd floor of the Green Library, and the
Wolfsonian-FIU Museum, located in Miami Beach.
The Dean of Libraries oversees the main campus libraries and coordinates efforts with the independently
administered libraries (Law, Medicine, and Wolfsonian). The Dean of Libraries reports to the Provost
and Executive Vice President and is a member of the Council of Deans. Reporting to the Dean of
Libraries are two Associate Deans, the Associate Director for Human Resources & Budgeting, and the
Department Heads of each functional department of the FIU Libraries (10 units).
Page 29 of 320
29
Collection management for the University Libraries is coordinated by the Head of Collection
Management & Resource Access in consultation with the library liaisons and other library units.
Reference, research, and instructional assistance are provided by library liaisons and coordinated
through the Information & Research Services Department. The majority of library liaisons, including the
liaisons to the College of Communication, Architecture + The Arts, report to the Department Head for
Information & Research Services. The Sound & Image Department provides specialized services for
audio-visual materials.
Architecture Serials
The University Libraries have access to articles from 97,459 online journals through various vendors,
including multi-journal packages from Taylor & Francis, Elsevier, Springer, Wiley, JSTOR, Oxford
University Press, Cambridge University Press, Project Muse, ASCE, and ASME. Online journal content
can be accessed from the library catalog or through the E-journal Portal, which utilizes the
SerialsSolutions platform. Although many of the online journals are available cover-to-cover, some titles
may only have selective content available through aggregator databases. In terms of journals most likely
to be relevant to this programs offerings, the E-Journal Portal reports the following subject areas and
journal counts: Architecture (244), Fine Arts - General (148), Gardens, Landscape Architecture & Parks
(48), Visual Arts - General (454), Materials Science (328), Civil Engineering (499), Environmental
Engineering (286), Engineering - General (370)
Over the past 12 years the University Libraries have been steadily converting journal subscriptions from
print to online to ensure broader access to research needs. Nevertheless, for the Arts & Architecture, a
large number of print subscriptions have been maintained due to the potential loss of image quality in an
online environment. The Libraries acquisition sstem shows 47 current print subscriptions designated
specifically for the Architecture program.
The external standard for serial holdings is the Association of Architecture School Librarians Core List
(https://www.architecturelibrarians.org/coreperiodicalslist ). Of the total 54 titles in the latest edition,
compiled in 2009, the librars collection is sufficient with full tet, either in print or online, to 49 titles
(90%).
B. Describe additional library resources that are needed to implement and/or sustain the
program through Year 5. Include projected costs of additional library resources in Table 2

Structural and Environmental Technologies Lab (SET Lab)
SET Lab is an interdisciplinary facility dedicated to teaching and research in building science and
technology with a focus on ecology and the importance of climate responsive and energy-conscious
design and construction. The lab serves the curricular needs of CARTAs programs b providing a
dedicated space and equipment for learning through research, testing, and investigation of materials and
systems for resource efficient built environments. The lab is located on the ground floor of the Paul L.
Cejas Architecture Building and consists of 1,300 square feet of classroom and demonstration space. The
lab equipment includes:
Pasco Truss Set: This Structures System set includes everything needed to quickly build and evaluate a
variety of trusses. A variety of I-beams give the flexibility to design and create many different structures.
All Structures Systems sets, Load Cell can be placed anywhere in the structure, allowing you to measure
tension and compression.
Static System: A Magnetic Work board and Components designed to teach the fundamentals of statics.
The Statics System is composed of the Statics Board, Spares Package, Components Package and Mass and
Hanger Set. Most of the components of the Statics System attach magnetically to the board and have
rubber rings on their base to protect the board. The PASCO Statics System is designed to help you
investigate the nature of forces for the special case in which there is no acceleration. In other words, the
vector sum of all the forces acting on the body is zero.
TecQuipments Beam: The high-qualit equipment consists of a simpl supported beam cut b a pivot
to create various Bending Moments in a Beam experiment. Students apply loads along the beam and read
the forces created using a Digital Force Display.
Virtual Bending: Virtual Experiments Software enables computer simulation of experiments working
with or without the hardware. It allows students to visualize, tabulate, and graph data. The software
displays a bending moment diagrams during experiments.
Hydraulic Press: A 50-Ton Capacity hydraulic shop press used to apply stress to structural members.
Used for testing.
Fabrication Lab
The department maintains a wood, plastic, and metal shop located within proximity of the studios.
Containing industrial grade wood working, plastics, and metal working equipment, this shop is designed
Page 32 of 320
32
to give students hands-on experience in large-scale model building, CNC milling and furniture building.
The shop is staffed by a model shop manager and by work-study assistants who support student
training, general project assistance, and shop equipment maintenance. The shop is approximately 2,000
square-feet and is open daily, Monday-Friday. The following is the fabrication lab equipment:
Cabinet Shop: The foundation of our Lab is a full cabinet shop featuring a 10 Sawstop table saw, a Delta
10 table saw and router table, a Jet 20 band saw with 12 throat, two 14 band saws, a Delta 14 radial
arm saw, a 12 and an 8 compound miter saw, a Delta 8 joiner, 14 planer, 24 Jet drum sander, 36
edge sander, spindle sander, a Powermatic mortising machine, a Delta 36 wood lathe, and numerous
hand and power tools.
CNC Mill: The Techno LC-Series 4896 is the digital workhorse in the Fabrication Lab. It allows a work
area of 48 with an 11 throat and spindle speeds up to 18,000 rpm. Typical materials range from wood,
MDF, and plywood to foam, plastics, and aluminum. The 2-1/2 axis Techno LC-series allows positive
curvature three-dimensional surface milling as well as two-dimensional profile cutting, drilling, and
pocketing. All our Lab Technicians are advanced Rhino and Maya modelers who are fully trained in the
use of MasterCAM and RhinoCAM to offer a variety of tool path solutions.
Vacuum Former: Our newest Lab addition is a 4848 Belovac C-class Vacuum Forming machine with a
42 effective work area and 22 depth of draw. For use with plastics up to 1/4, the Belovac allows us to
take three-dimensional male or female molds made using the CNC mill or manual processes and use
them to make thin compound curved and folded surfaces.
Metal Shop: Our metal shop features a range of sheet metal tools including a 36 guillotine sheer,
throatless sheer, 42 bo and pan break, rotar punch and die, 30 roll former, wheel crimp, and a 10
throat spot welder. We also have a 24 thread cutting lathe, a reciprocating mill, a 280-amp Miller stick
SMAW process welder, and a Lincoln wire feed welder for gasless FCAW process welding. Numerous
hand and power tools supplement this well-equipped shop.
Concrete Lab: Our concrete lab is used for advanced material research in concrete and cementitious
products. It includes numerous hand and power tools as well as a vertical shaft mixer and precision
calibrated measuring devices for highly accurate mixture ratios used in concrete strength testing.
Through a partnership with the College of Engineering and Computing, our advanced students and
research assistants have access to precision tools for strength testing concrete and other cementitious
products.
Digital Lab
Although we require students to have their own laptop computers by the time they matriculate to the
second year, the school also supports a digital print lab that provides students with access to various
forms of digital output including black and white and color printing and plotting, as well as laser-cutting
and three-dimensional printing. The lab is managed by the digital technology lab manager assisted by
three-to-five work-study students. Students printing and output costs are covered by technology course
fees. Students have unlimited access to printing and are not charged per square foot or per page. The lab
is equipped with:
Printers: The Print Lab features 13 Hewlett Packard Printers and two scanners: One 36 HP color InkJet
plotter, five 36 HP color InkJet plotters, two 24 HP color InkJet plotters, two CP6015xh printers that

PerFORM[D]ance FIU 2011 Solar Decathlon House
Most of the credit for this project belongs to Marilys Nepomechie (Principal
Investigator); the students of the FIU Solar Decathlon Team, and support from Florida
International University.
I participated as a Faculty Advisor in the Design Development stage of the project.
I helped in the selection of the structural, cladding, and mechanical systems as well as
with initial notions of assembly and disassembly. I also taught five courses designed
to coach students during this effort: Sustainability Studio, Spring 2010; Independent
Studies, Summer 2010; Solar Decathlon Seminar, Summer 2010 and Fall 2010, and
Design Ecology, in Spring 2011. Several publications emerged from this project; I
have listed only those where I had direct participation.
Trans-Tropic 2011 FIU Solar Decathlon House
An independent jury of community and industry experts selected the design that was
completed by the 2011 FIU Solar Decathlon Team. The Trans-Tropic Solar House by
graduate student Mohammed Shanti won second place. I felt this design had great
merit and invited Mohammed to co-write a paper with me. The paper was published in
a book edited by Nicholas Patricios and Stavros Alifragkis for Atiner Publications
(Greece), and presented at the University of Waikato in New Zealand.
Casa Valija Solar (Solar Suitcase House), 2015
Casa Valija Solar was designed in conjunction with faculty members (Carolina
Sepúlveda, Manuel Puicol and Alex Becker) and students from the Instituto de
Arquitectura y Urbanismo of the Universidad Austral de Chile (UACh) in Valdivia.
FIU’s focus on low cost solutions, energy baseline assessments and energy audit
methods greatly helped the final design of this project. Casa Valija Solar has been
part of ECPA training seminars and continued coursework at UACh.
With the Laboratorio de Estudios de Sustentabilidad y Tecnología (LES + T),
Universidad Austral de Chile and the FIU/ECPA team
Primera Casa Piloto Autosustentada (First Self-sustaining Pilot House), 2014-15
Casa Piloto Autosustentada was designed in conjunction with faculty members
(Carolina Sepúlveda, Manuel Puicol and Alex Becker) and students from the Instituto
de Arquitectura y Urbanismo of the Universidad Austral de Chile (UACh) in Valdivia.
Our focus on low cost solutions, energy baseline assessments, energy audit methods
greatly helped the final design of this project. Primera Casa Piloto Autosustentada has
been part of ECPA training seminars and continued coursework at UACh.

2 – Statement of Teaching, Research, and Service
Thomas Spiegelhalter received both a Master and Bachelor of Arts in Design and Architecture from the
University of Arts in Berlin, Germany and a Bachelor of Arts in Architectural Engineering from the University of
Applied Science in Bremen, Germany. From 1990 to 1999, he began his academic career as an Assistant
Professor of Design and Sustainability at the University of Kaiserlautern, and ultimately tenure as a C3 Full
Professor at the University of Applied Science in Leipzig in 1993.
As a 1999 recipient of the DAAD Prize for German-American Academic Exchange, Thomas was
appointed a visiting professorship in Design and Sustainability at the Gerald D. Hines School of Architecture of
the University of Houston. Subsequently, he similarly he taught as a Visiting Professor Performative Design and
Sustainability at the Center for Building Performance and Diagnostics at Carnegie Mellon University’s School of
Architecture in Pittsburgh, PA from 2000 to 2003. In 2003, Thomas was appointed Assistant Professor at the
University of Southern California’s Building Science Program and Center for Sustainable Cities, where he taught
until 2009 when he joined FIU’s School of Architecture in Miami.
When Thomas arrived at FIU, the department’s directional goals was to completely revise and update
the curriculum of the sustainability studio and environmental systems in architecture courses to meet
international, technological, and future accreditation requirements within a minimal amount of time. To meet the
department’s goals under pressing deadlines, Thomas undertook the planning and implementation of the entire
Blackboard and CANVAS systems from scratch; developed the Building Information Modelling (BIM) software
nodes and scripts to accompany online and cloud-based simulation exercises, test, and lectures; and, the
updating of automated course-quizzes with the newest ASHRAE/ISO, AIA-NCARB, and UAI professional
question sets, including several specific visual programming software workflow tutorials and exercises.
This ultimately led to the establishment of the Dynamo-Rhynamo-BIM-User Group
1
within Autodesk User
Group International (‘AUGI’). AUGI provides access to elite, worldwide expert technological support, while
allowing the user group to share, investigate, and develop new tools for use within the generative design industry.
Over the course of Thomas’ nine years at FIU, he also has and continues to train young instructors in managing
large-scale environmental systems and using Building Information Modelling tools in their respective architecture
classes. He also extensively fund-raised for, co-founded, and is the current Co-Director with Professor Shahin
Vassigh of FIU’s Structures and Environmental Technologies Lab (SET)—an academic and professional
teaching, research and outreach center.
Thomas has also participated in over $12,3 million in research grants and contracts from public and
private institutions, including NSF, NREL, DOE, AIA, EU Belmont, EU Horizon, Intelligent Europe, DAAD,
ERASMUS, and BMWI since 1990. This has allowed him to work with numerous funded graduate and PhD
students over the course of the last 29 years. He also served as a faculty adviser to FIU’s transdisciplinary,
award-winning Solar Decathlon teams in the US and China (CMU 2002, USC 2007, FIU 2011, FIU-Tsinghua
China 2016). Many of his former students have gone on to obtain success in their own right, either as interns,
employees or professors on major projects throughout Europe, Africa, Asia, and the Americas.
In addition to his academic work, Thomas has worked as a professional architect, engineer, and town
planner licensed to practice in all EU Member States throughout his entire career. He is also LEED accredited,
and has provided private, institutional, and commercial consulting services worldwide. Thomas’ professional
portfolio includes over $438 million in built environmental designs and over $258 million of master planning
consultations on building and infrastructure projects.
Thomas’ creative design work, applied research, and teaching has been widely recognized for
excellence, and is the recipient of 72 honors at the academic, regional, national, and international levels,
including Architectural Record’s ‘Design Vanguard’ award. His work has also been featured in 111 design and

creative work;
(c) Parametric Automation in Design and Construction, Best Practices in Sustainable Building
Design with Interactive Learning Environment, and tutorial development for courses and studios;
(d) Innovative Building Integrated Systems for climate-responsive engineering; and,
(e) Greenhouse Gas emission reduction strategies for carbon-neutral Net-Zero-Energy
Buildings, Infrastructures and Cities.
Thomas’ participation in funded research at FIU and other Universities worldwide is extensive. He
presently serves as principle investigator (PI) for the Miami partner of the CRUNCH Consortium (Climate
Resilient Urban Nexus Choices): a collaborative effort between Urban Living Labs in Miami, London, Glasgow,
Eindhoven, Gdansk, Uppsala, and Taipei. The project is budgeted for $1.9 Million over 3 years and is sponsored
by Urban Europe, the EU Commission, the Belmont Forum, Intelligent Europe, and the Sustainable Urbanization
Global Initiative (SUGI) with NSF, plus a grant to participate in La Biennale di Venezia—the 17
th
International
Architecture Exhibition in Venice from May 23 – November 29, 2020.
From 2016, he served as a Senior Investigator (SI) on the ongoing ‘CIF21/DIBBS/EI/VIFI: Virtual
Information-Fabric Infrastructure (VIFI) for Data-Driven Decisions from Distributed Data’ project of the University
of North Carolina at Charlotte under an NSF grant for $3,999,531.00. From 2013 to 2016, he was Co-PI with
Professor Camilo Rosales on the Energy Climate Partnership of the Americas’ Energy Efficiency Competition
for Brazil, Chile, and Trinidad & Tobago, under a grant from the US Department of State Bureau of Western
Hemisphere Affairs for $799,099 (CFDA# 19.750).
Prior to that, Thomas was PI on ‘An Open-Source Integrated Computing Infrastructure to Support the Life

Beginning in 2005, Thomas has proposed, developed, and co-organized educational sessions for various
initiatives, including the ‘AIA 2030 Challenge-Carbon-Neutral Design’ in Pasadena, Los Angeles from 2010 to
2012; the Mundaneum (Union Internacional de Arquitectura) in Managua, Nicaragua, Granada, Guatemala and
twice in San Jose, Costa Rica from 2011 to 2016; and the International Forum and Federal Summit in
Washington, DC and for the International Greenbuild in Chicago, IL in 2010. He has also served as a working
group member of the University of Pescara’s Department of Technologies for the Built Environment (DiTAC) on
the EU’s URBACT program for the re-development of cities and neighborhoods with energy efficient housing
since 2005; and, provided an Teaching and Professional Licensing Manual and Inventory with training workshops
in Trinidad and Tobago and St. Lucia on the EU-funded ‘New Educational and Professional Learning and
Benchmarking Mechanisms for the Caribbean’ for the University of the West Indies.
Thomas also co-organized and moderated the 2009 Sustainable Energy Technology in Germany and
the US Symposium, which was sponsored by the German Ministry Technology Export Initiative, The State of
Baden-Württemberg, Daimler-Benz, Bosch, and Zafh.net Centre of Applied Research on Sustainable Energy
Technology. He has served on FIU’s Provosts Environmental Strategic Planning Committee, and is presently
working with CARTA on the strategic development of FIU’s SET-Lab, including grant-writing, acquisition and
testing of research equipment, seeking other outside funding.
Looking ahead, Thomas will continue to incorporate the interests that have profoundly influenced his
graduate, research, and service at FIU’s School of Architecture and FIU in large. He intends to continue
incorporating parametric design of carbon-neutral and generative design optimizations into his work, to
developing the environmental systems courses and graduate sustainability design studios, and to forging
worldwide relationships with large-scale funding sources and research partners who share the vision of
developing the FIU CARTA’s Teaching and Research Lab’s.

Course, Curriculum Development Activities:
-Developed or had direct input in the analysis, development and/or re-orientation of several graduate courses and studios
that have since been included in FIU’s Professional Masters 5-year Accreditation Sequence since 2009. In 2011, the
sequence was recognized ‘with distinction’ by the National Architectural Accreditation Board. Two courses have been
incorporated into required program curricula: (1) Environmental Systems in Architecture 1 and (2) Environmental Systems
in Architecture 2; and the ARC 5935 Carbon-Neutral Building, City and Infrastructure BIM Course is now offered as an
elective course.
-Restructured several Digital Design, Sustainable Practice and Sustainability Courses (D7, D8, D9, and D10) by introducing
Software Analysis and Generative BIM Design tool workflows with visual programming and automation capabilities into the
course materials since 2009.
-Re-organized courses to revolve around three areas: (1) The understanding of basic and advanced data-driven and
generative, iterative carbon-neutral, bioclimatic principles, thermal transfer in buildings, passive and active cooling and
heating, renewable energy, mechanical, electrical, lighting, acoustics, plumbing and water, building signals, and automation
and transportation systems; (2) Innovative and globally resourced use of benchmarked Architectural and Engineering design
case studies that explain those principles; and, (3) The use of parametric, generative 3D-4D-5D-6D-BIM analysis and design
tools for investigation of bioclimatic factors, energy, water and resource efficiency, thermal and acoustical performance.
-Co-developed and linked FIU’s Integrated Building Systems Course to the Comprehensive Studio, which incorporates real-
world data-driven and generative Building Information Modelling workflows and deliverables. All courses are accredited,
have included multiple class and studio sections, and surpass the National Architectural Accreditation Board’s student-
performance criteria for professional accreditation.
-Contributed to the restructuring of the entire Architecture program curriculum from multiple perspectives, e.g., as staff
member, Official Representative of the College of Communication, Architecture + Arts, and as the Chair of the Architecture
Program Curriculum. This experience has culminated into the publishing of coursebook and DVD that is used in FIU’s
Environmental Classes and Sustainability Studios, as well as architecture programs at other universities.

4c-i – Creative Professional Design/Built Work
DESIGN / BUILT WORK:
Built work is professional and creative work. Design/built work typically occurs through peer-reviewed or non-peer reviewed
processes. For example, architectural design or engineering competitions or RFP’s (request for proposals) are organized
to solicit realization or conceptual proposals for specific projects. Blind, peer reviews are conducted by independent juries
of selected professionals, agencies, and/or government officials to judge competitions and RFP’s. Both can be held at
regional, national or international levels. They can be open to all or limited (i.e. registered professionals). Thomas was the
architect, engineer, and urban planner responsible or co-responsible for the design, the environmental systems,
construction documents, permitting, assembly, and for the yearly POE’s (Post Occupancy-Evaluations), including bio-
climatic ‘Clash Design Analysis’ and ‘Building-Energy-Performance Modeling and Benchmarking’ of the following work:

Dear Professor Chandler:
I am writing to provide a review of the proposed Doctorate of Design (DDes) in Architecture and Building
Technology degree at Florida International University. On my recent visit I was able to meet with the faculty
and administrators involved in developing the program and am strongly in support of the proposal. As I
mentioned in our meetings, we have looked at similar programs around the world and considered
developing one at Penn, but have concluded that it would be too close to our longstanding PhD in
Architecture.
Much of the discussion during the visit concerned the purpose, role, or need for such a program, so I will
summarize my views on that topic. We also discussed quite a few aspects of the curriculum, scheduling,
and student experience for the program, and I will outline the critical points of that discussion. Among the
primary values of advanced research degrees are to attract, support, and develop faculty, who can in turn
attract, support, and develop students capable of pursuing independent research. I believe that this degree
will serve both purposes directly, and advance the capabilities and reputation of the Department and
College.
Program Need
As the proposal explains, there are only a few DDes format degrees in the US, though they are more
common in the UK and Commonwealth countries. The one that has paved the way in US is at Harvard’s
Graduate School of Design, which has mostly focused on technology related topics. In my own field we
have interviewed a number of graduates from that program over the years and one is now partner at a
successful environmental consulting firm and the other has just become Dean at a well regarded
architecture school. I see those as the two needs or markets for graduates with such a degree: research
based professional practice and academic positions.
Page 301 of 320
Professional Research. In response to the demands of new technologies, new environmental challenges,
and new regulatory mandates, the professional practice of architecture has developed teams and
specialized consultants pursuing research or analysis that are not directly supported by project fees. These
units have typically grown up within larger, multi-office firms and provide both internal consulting for design
teams and produce original product development or research publications. They have emerged to offer
specific services and also to help firms reposition themselves in a changing professional landscape where
traditional services are being taken over by other providers and new services must be developed. The
focus of these groups depends on the specific practice and range from sustainability and environmental
consulting to digital construction and fabrication.
Academic positions. The DDes is considered a doctoral level degree suitable for academic appointments
in the architecture programs in the US. The determination of the terminal degree in Architecture depends
on the field or area of specialty. For faculty teaching history and theory of architecture, the doctoral level
has been standard for a couple of decades. For faculty teaching in technology related fields it is rapidly
becoming required, especially at more competitive programs, while for faculty focused on design, the BArch
or MArch are still the norm along with demonstrated excellence in practice.
The requirement for a doctoral level degree for teaching in other countries is much more the norm. It is now
generally expected for appointments in schools in China and the Middle East, and increasingly in Latin
America. There are limited positions in PhD programs at US Universities, so this is can be a substantial
pool of potential students. A considerable part of that international pool, and of the domestic pool as well,
will already be in productive positions as junior faculty or professionals, so the non-residential format will be
particularly attractive for them.
Curriculum, Scheduling, Student Experience
The new program is being developed to serve both residential and non-residential groups of students and
that fact shapes both the curriculum, organization, and scheduling of the program. The two year program is
based on distinct cohorts, with the overlap and interaction between the cohorts enhancing the research
activities of the students. The critical feature will be the residential periods or camps that will be hosted at
the Miami Beach Urban Studios each semester and that will provide the key points of interaction between
faculty and students from different cohorts (and from the MArch program), and between residential and
non-residential students.
There has been considerable discussion about the correct timing, duration, and intensity of these periods.
They have to balance between the different requirements of two cohorts, with the first level mostly taking
courses and the second cohort mostly developing and presenting independent projects. The idea of
bringing high-level speakers to give lectures or workshops at regular intervals through the residential period
seems an excellent way to build the community and cross-fertilize the research initiatives, allowing the
Page 302 of 320
cohorts to come together regularly during the period. Using the Miami Beach Urban Studios also adds an
extra attraction to these periods and to the program.
The intensity of the residential periods also answered the question of how the non-residential portion will be
managed. Rather than attempting to offer course material in an on-line format, the residential periods will
be used to deliver course materials, develop relationships with faculty and within the cohort and to establish
expectations for the work pursued independently. In this format, the non-residential work is more focused
on follow up and execution, which can be managed with any number of currently popular digital tools, in
both synchronous and asynchronous modes. The challenge for this kind of non-residential program will be
keeping students engaged and productive while they are back in their regular positions.
The final issue that was considered at length was the matter of primary program faculty and the scale of the
program. The current five year plan is based on an annual cohort of 5 students, partly based on the scale of
the current Master of Arts in Architecture program (which will effectively be converted into the DDes) and
partly based on the number of faculty with PhDs. This seems a sensible size and premise with which to
begin the program, and also makes it cost neutral. However there are also a number of other faculty in the
Department without PhDs who conduct advanced level research and could supervise DDes students and
benefit from working with them. It would seem sensible to develop a mechanism for bringing them into the
program, which would add to the appeal of the program and its ability to adapt and grow.
In summary, the DDes is a format of degree recognized in the field and the new program will serve both the
faculty of the school and the students attracted to its offerings. I think the format they have developed will
be compelling and addresses the challenge of integrating the multiple residential and non-residential
groups that they are targeting.

Dr. William W. Braham FAIA

Re:
Support
for
the
New
Doctorate
of
Design Degree
Dear Dean
Schriner,
Thank
you
for
the
opportunity
to
review
the
proposed
Doctorate
of
Design
(DDes)
to
be
offered
at
Florida
International University
(FlU).
Currently,
Florida
A&M
University
(FAMU)
does
not
offer
a
doctoral
degree
in
this
discipline.
Instead
we
offer
the
Master
of
Architecture
that
prepares
graduates
for
a
professional
career
in
Architecture
and
a
Master
of
Science
in
Architectural
Studies
with
a
concentration
in
Facilities
Management.
The
Doctor
of
Design,
we
believe,
would
add
significantly
to
the
contribution
of
professionals
in
Architecture
in
the
State
of
Florida
and
will
also train
graduates
to
be
future
leaders.
Our
faculty
are
very
supportive
of
FlU’s proposed
Doctor
of
Design
program
and
believe
that
the
program
is
a
welcomed
addition
to
the
offerings within
the
State
University
System (SUS).
It
has the
potential
to
provide
a
positive
impact
in
the
State
of
Florida
in
both
industry
and
academia
to
create
new
areas
of
innovation
while
at
the
same time
provide graduates
with
an
appropriate terminal
degree
for
those
interested
in
post-secondary
careers.
FAMU
also
sees
this new
program
as
an
opportunity
to
collaborate
and
build
partnerships
that
will
increase
student
success
for
graduates
of
the
program,
possibly
in
the
form
of
postdoctoral
research.
Sii
Best
wishes
to
your
team
as
they
move
forward
in
developing
the
program.

Dear Professor Schriner
I have been asked by Professor Leach to comment on the viability of your proposed new minimal
residency DDes programme.
I myself have taught on two other minimal residency doctoral programmes, the Digital Design PhD
programme at the European Graduate School in Switzerland and the DigitalFUTURES PhD programme
in Tongii University, Shanghai. I therefore consider myself to be in a good position to comment on the
new DDes proposed by FIU.
One of the remarkable aspects of these two other minimal residency PhD programmes is that they attract
an extremely high calibre of student. Many of the students either work in some of the top architectural
offices, or are already academics with full time appointments. Their reason for taking a doctoral
programme is to advance their careers and give them qualifications that are likely to increase the
potential of gaining research funding. The advantage of a minimal residency programme is that it enables
them to keep working and maintain their salaries. At the same time those with academic appointments
are already research active. This is why these programmes are so attractive to top students. I would fully
anticipate that the FIU DDes degree would attract a similar high level of applicants.
The time advantages that bring busy, high level students into the programme are also attractive to part
time teachers. Also, the concentrated teaching period generates an intense and thrilling intellectual
atmosphere. One of the pleasures of teaching a condensed programme and studying on the EGS PhD
program was that tuition took place in the beautiful village of Saas Fee, high up in the Swiss Alps. I would
also imagine that studying on Miami Beach would also prove attractive. As you probably know, Zaha
Hadid was very fond of Miami Beach and kept an apartment there.
I would like to offer my complete endorsement of this proposed DDes programme. I am sure that it will
prove very popular, and attract a great crop of students.
Yours Sincerely
Patrik

Re: Support for New Doctor of Design Degree
Dear Dean Brian Schriner,
I am writing to offer my support for the new Doctor of Design degree proposed by the Department of
Architecture in the College of Communication, Architecture + The Arts at FIU. As you know we had
some discussion about my interest in a Doctor of Design program several years ago. Post professional
degrees such as this doctorate are increasingly desirable in our profession especially due to the
increasing interdisciplinary nature of our profession.
The Doctor of Design is a desirable credential for our firm’s leadership positions and research
initiatives. Our firm has a history of hiring PhD level staff to provide the thought leadership we seek on a
wide variety of environmental and engineering areas of practice. We would welcome the greater
availability of Architects with similar educational credentials and would expect them to receive
compensation commensurate with their educational and experience background.
I will add that when this degree is offered, our firm would be very interested in working with you to
enhance the program.
With very best wishes,

Dear Dean Brian Schriner,
I am writing to offer my support for the new Doctor of Design degree proposed by the Department of
Architecture in the College of Communication, Architecture + The Arts at FIU. Post professional degrees

accomplished talent in South Florida and those with this degree are what we are looking for.
The Doctor of Design is a desirable credential for our firm’s leadership positions and research initiatives.
Those who possess it would be hired with compensation commensurate with their educational and

FLORIDA INTERNATIONAL UNIVERSITY COLLEGE OF COMMUNICATIONS,
ARCHITECTURE & THE ARTS
Dear Brian,
I am writing to offer my support and encouragement for the new Doctor of Design degree proposed
by the Department of Architecture in the College of Communication, Architecture + The Arts at FIU.
Post professional degrees such as this doctorate are increasingly desirable in our profession. Our
profession continues to be challenged to grow and hire accomplished talent world-wide. By FIU
CARTA offering a Doctorate Design degree, the University you would be deepening the presence and
talent in South Florida, and in turn raising the bar of design excellence, research and innovation in our
community.
For Gensler, research and innovation is the hallmark of our firm. The ability to have top talent with a
Doctor of Design is a desirable credential for our firm’s leadership positions and research initiatives.
Those who possess this degree, I believe would be strong candidates for hire for leadership roles and
growth opportunities that come with the compensation commensurate with their education and
experience.
I will add that when this degree is offered, our firm would continue to be supportive in any way
possible, as well as to work with you and your professors to enhance your educational offerings for
this program.

Re: Support for new Doctor of Design degree
Dear Dean Brian Schriner,
I am writing to present my strong support for the Doctor of Design degree envisioned by your
Department of Architecture, part of the College of Communication, Architecture + The Arts at the
Florida International University. Such highly commended degree is increasingly valued amongst our
professional community and aligns with HKS’s vision for the future of the architecture and design
professions.
HKS has long integrated research and practice, either through our 501c3 entity CADRE, the Center
for Advanced Research and Evaluation, or in our HKS Research studio practice, where Doctor of
Design credential is a requirement for many leadership and practicing positions, with subsequent
compensation premium proportional to the esteemed title.
Finally, as the degree becomes a reality, HKS would be interested in collaborating with its faculty and
leadership to further improve its integration with the professional practice.
Sincerely,

FIU Response to the Initial Review of the Doctor of Design
Substantive Issues:
Pursuant to Section II.A. of the proposal, please provide information regarding
community support and local workforce demand for the program. Additionally,
please provide evidence that this program would result in a salary increase for
graduates currently employed in the field of architecture.
FIU revised Section II.A. using track changes reflecting added information. While
a doctoral degree does not generally focus on local demand, given the degree is
a professional doctorate, local architectural firms responded to our request for
letters of support (Appendix E). In addition, data from the Bureau of Labor
Statistics was updated to 2018-28 and a reference regarding the salary
enhancement of a doctoral degree is now included in this section. Our local
architectural support letters also reflect that salaries in higher-level positions
utilizing the skills of a professional doctorate would reflect this higher
qualification.
Please provide a detailed breakdown of the tuition per credit hour, all required
fees, and the total cost of the program to the student pursuant to Section III. B. of
the proposal.
Please see revised Section III.B. for tuition and fee information.
Please explain the source of the Philanthropy and Endowment funds reflected in
years 1 and 5 in Table 2-Appendix A, as well as the source of the Contracts and
Grants funding listed in year 5 in Table 2-Appendix A. The funds were not
explained in Section III. A. of the proposal as required.
Please see revised Section III.A. for Dea Ba Sche commitment for the
College of Communication, Architecture + the Arts Foundation funds which will
be earmarked for this program. In addition, a cross reference to Section III.E.
was added to refer the reader to the types of current NSF funding currently
awarded to FIU in which CARTA/Architecture faculty participate. Upon approval
of the new degree, future grant applications will include assistantships for these
doctoral students (Appendix A Table 2 Budget -Year 5).
Pursuant to Section VIII.C. of the proposal, please provide all of the curriculum
information required, or provide a reference to where this information is provided
in the proposal.
Please see revised Section VIII.C. for complete curriculum details.
Technical Issues:

graduates in Section I.A. of the proposal.
Please see revised Section I.A. for further examples of possible employment for
graduates.
