Plate 2: A Proposed CIT- University Architecture building

Rationale:
The Architecture Department aims to: develop students to become highly competent architects
thru the mastery of comprehensive architectural knowledge, both in theory and practice; Produce
graduates equipped with the skills and proficiency in meeting the demands of the multi-
dimensional aspects of the profession; Instill a deep sense of responsibility to God, country,
community and family; Develop a strong commitment for the protection of the environment
through sustainable building practices; Promote better quality of life thru creative endeavor and
research
Based from statistics, there are a great number of enrollees from the past 7years except for the last
2-year transition period of junior & senior high. With the continuing trend, the CIT University is
planning to upgrade its facilities to accommodate the increase no. of student population and to
keep abreast with the current education system which is an outcome based educational system

Goals and Objectives:

Design exercises stressing environmental analysis, aesthetic, topographic, geologic, and
seismologic conditions, utilities, circulations, legal considerations and sensitivities of man.
Building Geometry as Design Expression / Semantics
1. Design complex architectural forms focusing on structural requirements
2. Develop creative concepts in solving design problems
3. Manipulate building forms as a means to communicate ideas or concepts

 To familiarize with the concepts regarding educational institution development

 To know the building laws and regulations that will serve as a restriction that will guide in
designing the problem.
 To provide a design that adheres practical or functional practices while simultaneously
addressing other areas of concern or disciplines (plumbing, electrical, structural,
mechanical)
