on 'design/build' in architectural education:
The term design/build is a slight misnomer for these courses, which are intended less as surveys of the popular alternative
delivery method than as hands-on clinics to teach students about sites, structures, materials, and joinery. Academic design-build
programs remove design projects from the studio vacuum and push students to reconcile their drawings with real structures
they can build, weld, wire, and plumb. They encourage students to work as part of collaborative teams, resolving conflicts,
managing finances, and communicating with clients.
