Defines the critical subject area of professional studies which runs as a thread through the RIBA validation criteria for Parts 1 and 2.

For students of architecture, this primer defines the critical subject area of professional studies which runs as a thread through the RIBA validation criteria for Parts 1 and 2. Suitable across the whole 5-year Masters Architecture degree course, it gives students the conceptual resources and tools they need to investigate professional issues. Using short case studies that relate to the RIBA Plan of Work, it bridges the gap between the needs of the student and the overly technical information and sources used by practicing professionals.

This brand new edition features:

A greater international focus
Topics aligned closely to the new ARB General Criteria and RIBA's new validation criteria
Explains the importance of the professional context in which buildings are designed and made
