A platform for research: civil engineering, architecture and urbanism
Architectural Education and Behavioral Science
Few buildings today are brought down by structural failure; many—some would say most—are weakened by what the author of this article, an architect and educator who holds a degree in sociology, calls anthropological failure. If this state of affairs is to be remedied, Carleton Monroe Winslow Jr maintains, there will have to be more and better courses in behavioral sciences at the undergraduate level in architectural curricula, together with an increase in empirical research into the part played by environmental factors in determining social behavior. And the latter, no less than the former, will have to be instigated by the schools.
