BERMEO ALVAREZ, Sergio Andrés y ECHEVERRIA BUCHELI, Rosa Mishell. The integrating chair. A transdisciplinary approach to teaching of architecture: FAU-UCE Case Study. Estoa [online]. 2022, vol.11, n.21, pp.116-131. ISSN 1390-9274. https://doi.org/10.18537/est.v011.n021.a07.
The Faculty of Architecture and Urbanism (FAU) of the Central University of Ecuador (UCE) has questioned the limits of the architectural discipline, to reflect on the current role of the profession, with the purpose of generating a new academic discourse that allows linking practice and theory within the architect’s training. The Higher Education Law requires a constant renewal of the academic curriculum, so that the offer is relevant and responds to contemporary problems. Thus, in order to develop an academic curriculum, not only is a process of analysis and constant feedback necessary, interdisciplinary or even transdisciplinary themes must also be built, both in undergraduate and postgraduate master’s degrees. An alternative solution is the integrative chair of applied knowledge in the vertical workshop of architectural projects that is complemented with theoretical and critical bases.
