| dc.description.abstract | Colleges and universities are uniquely important to our future as a society as they harbor and cultivate the minds of the future generations of leaders. It’s extremely important for these spaces to cater to learning and open thought and speech as this is how people improve upon their critical thinking and professional skills. However, the models currently being employed for these buildings and campuses are often inadequate and have become outdated, no longer properly suited to their purposes. This next generation of leaders is therefore not reaching its maximum potential and countless innovative and new ideas could be lost because of these ill-suited environments. This thesis will provide an alternative model to the current academic facilities that we have in our higher education system. Through improving the design of our educational facilities, we may be able to secure a better future, not only for the students occupying and studying at these facilities, but for everyone in our society that benefits from the thoughts and ideas that are produced there. Research was conducted with the aim of understanding what makes our current higher educational facilities so inadequate in their purposes and what precedents have been set in terms of the future design of higher educational facilities. | en_US |
