General aim of the course:Comprehend the development of prehispanic architecture
in Mexico through the study and analysis of the relations between the architecture
ideology and object.
Identify the continuity and connections between the different architectonic movements through the critical analysis of the main architectonic examples built in the pre-hispanic period.
The critical analysis about this architectonic production will contribute to give a theoretical basis for the reflection around the artistic and cultural development of different Mexican societies in this period.

General aim of the course:To explain what happens at the previous phases of
pre-figuration and figuration, there where to learn to design means to learn
to know. To attend in an objective way the problems in the design process, analyzing
it from two different views: subjectivity and objectivity. The aim of this reflection
pretends to establish the notion of actualization as function of an intelligence
inserted into reality. To reflect from certain figures of contemporary thinking,
the most representative of our profession. To offer enough elements to help
solve the apparent incompatibility between theory and practice.

General aim of the course:Knowledge and analysis of contemporary problems at
the real of theory and practice of architecture and urbanism, at the basis of
a multi-disciplinary vision, marking the relationships, connections and interactions
with others disciplines. To recognize the action of architecture and urbanism
in others realms of knowledge to establish a critical position by analysis and
discussion which allow the linking between theory and practice, recognizing
the new notifications of reality that modern world imposes. To establish the
local coordinates in which the frontiers of diverse disciplines and theory of
architecture at the global and local realm get mixed. To impulse students to
incise in reality through constructive critics in local works and phenomena,
by means of a critical thinking.

General aim of the course:The paradigm position and tendencies that twentieth
century established need to be studied in the bigginings of present age, not
by a traditional way (cronological) but conceptual. The course outlines a critical
reflection about the most representative artistical and architectural production
of last century, from avant-garde to our posmodern situation, getting known
the in-betwen inside a cycle to evidence as "phenomenons" and "forms"
in almost a hundred years period. Inside this period internal structures can
be seen to answer the whole in brief periods of time.
