Introduction
Architecture is one of the oldest professions when thought in relation to the phenomenon of dwelling. The program is composed of courses in design, history-theory-criticism, building physics and technologies, media, and environment-city-society tracks which also prove its interdisciplinary quality. Science and technology, art and philosophy are the main components of the architecture discipline.
Architecture approaches engineering as it requires command of all scientific and technological knowledge required for the production of durable, human, and environmentally friendly environments while It is close to art with its plastic/formal searches that consider aesthetic qualities. Architecture, as a discipline highly dependent on criticism, also requires knowing the history and theory of architectural production in the past to speak about the present and the future. It has a close relationship with the social sciences such as sociology, and psychology regarding its contextual relationship with the city and society.
