Energy and Environment Based Architectural Research and Design (Fall 2003), IPRO 323
Energy and Environment Based Architectural Research and Design (Fall 2003), IPRO 323
The studio focuses on a specific project, but in an investigative and experimental manner. This semester, the project is a University Campus of a medium size, located in Dubai, UAE, currently under design in the College of Architecture, Illinois Institute of Technology. The class will be divided into three working groups. Group 1 was assigned to the main University Building, Group 2 was assigned to the College of Engineering Building and Group 3 was assigned to the Student Center Building. Every group will develop energy conscious concepts for the design with special consideration to integrate PV, wind energy and other applicable technologies. Each group will survey and conduct extensive research on traditional architecture that is deeply rooted in the culture and religion. The end result of each project is expected to consist of cutting edge architectural solution, which will help provide insight into methods for integrating environmental concerns into architectural design process., Sponsorship: Skidmore Owings & Merrill LLP, Project Plan for IPRO 323: Energy and Environment Based Architectural Research & Design for Fall 2003 semester
Designing Affordable Housing out of Shipping Containers for Ciudad Juarez, Mexico and Chicago, Illinois (Semester Unknown) IPRO 339
Designing Affordable Housing out of Shipping Containers for Ciudad Juarez, Mexico and Chicago, Illinois (Semester Unknown) IPRO 339
Currently there are several countries throughout the world that have a large need for affordable housing. Our IPRO is currently dealing with solutions for Juarez, Mexico and Chicago, Illinois. These two places are very different in climate, culture, as well as economy. Our IPRO this semester will focus on applying the prototype from last semester to these two regions, while making adjustments as needed. We will continue the research into systems which will be advantageous to each situation and develop them accordingly. Once we get a better understanding as to how we can apply our prototype to these situations we will be better able to apply the prototype to various other countries throughout the world., Deliverables
Researching, Designing, Testing, and Evaluating IPRO Program Enhancements (Semester Unknown) IPRO 301
Researching, Designing, Testing, and Evaluating IPRO Program Enhancements (Semester Unknown) IPRO 301
The IPRO program at IIT, since its inception in 1995, has become a signature program of the school for it not only benefits participating students but also the corresponding sponsors and prospective employers of IIT graduates. During a student’s participation of an IPRO, he/she is engaged in a multi-discipline, teambased learning environment to solve a real-world problem proposed by industry sponsors and/or IIT faculty. Additionally, the program is designed to allow students to develop and apply their teamwork, project management, communication, and ethical behavioral skills. Each semester, the projects courses offered change depending on the emerging social and technological trends in today’s world., Deliverables

SOLAR DECATHALON (Semester Unknown) IPRO 352
SOLAR DECATHALON (Semester Unknown) IPRO 352
The Solar Decathlon is an international collegiate competition where 20 student teams design, build, and showcase small, energy-efficient, solar-powered homes on the Washington Mall for two weeks every other year. The houses, unconnected to any central power, sewage, or plumbing lines, must fully accommodate the equivalent of a “typical American family” for the duration of the competition. The Request for Proposal for the 2011 Solar Decathlon will be released at the conclusion of the October 2009 event. The teams selected for the competition will be awarded $100,000 over two years to aid in construction costs and support the Solar Decathlon's research goal of reducing the cost of solarpowered homes and advancing solar technology., Deliveralbles
Developing a Computer Science Textbook that Incorporates Real and Practical Open-Ended Problem Solving (Semester Unknown) IPRO 328
Developing a Computer Science Textbook that Incorporates Real and Practical Open-Ended Problem Solving (Semester Unknown) IPRO 328
Dr. Ophir Frieder and Dr. David Grossman have completed a draft manuscript for an introductory book on Computer Science. The impulse behind this book is dissatisfaction with the way introductory computer science is currently taught. To our knowledge, there has yet to exist a text that focuses on semantic and algorithmic issues, rather than purely syntactical. Most students get bogged down by the intricacies of the programming language itself, which hinders their problem solving development. This book, in contrast to its many predecessors, will use the Ruby programming language. The language offers some good pedagogical aspects and this is couple with the fact that it is also becoming extremely popular in industry (e.g. 37Signals, as featured in BusinessWeek). By using Ruby, the team aims to aid students in learning semantic and algorithmic issues rather than the syntactical problems they face when learning other languages such as C++ and Java. In Fall 2007, the IPRO developed problem sets with solutions for the book, improved its examples, and developed sidebars. This semester, the IPRO will focus on testing the book with students new to computer science, Deliverables
