Exercice de la Profession : Droit de l'urbanisme et Economie de l’architecture

Droit de l'urbanisme 
All the information about this part of the course will be given at the beginning of the class.

Economie de l'architecture
The course looks at architectural practice from the perspective of the resources (financial, material, energetic, human…) that it mobilizes, moves, consumes. The course considers architectural practice as a prescriptive practice that engage a long series of actions leading to a construction. The lectures will address and question: the professional role of the architect as a designer, prescriber and inspector of the construction; the tools that guide the transition between design and construction via quantitative and qualitative descriptions (plans, models, quantity survey, specifications, standards); architects' responsibilities regarding the financial, material and human fluxes that their projects set in motion via these very concrete devices.

Economie de l'architecture
The course aims at raising the students' awareness of the various costs of architecture, both in financial terms (how much money does it cost) and more broadly in environmental terms (what does it cost). At the end of this course, students should be able to understand and seize the very concrete devices through which their design choices engage various types of resources towards construction.

All the information about this part of the course will be given at the beginning of the class.

Economie de l'architecture
The way the mark will be determined will be communicated on UV before the course starts.

Final UE Mark
The final UE mark will be the weighted arithmetic mean of the partial ratings, with an absorbing score of 07/20. This means that an AA mark below 07/20 neutralizes the calculation of the weighted arithmetic mean, and results in the lowest AA mark becoming the UE mark.
