在那封邮件里面的有几个地方个人感觉有点误导:
MIT seems to be more and more interested in architecture and fabrication.
提到MIT的fabrication大家最多的想到的是MEDIA LAB,和一些SMARCH的小组(它们确实很cross displine)。但是,实际上就MARCH而言,这两个项目和march的课程设置真心关系不大。就MARCH 课程设计本身而言,尤其是设计课,还是较为正统的,比较关注建筑本身
that MIT has made strong connections with other departments, such as the media lab, engineering, etc., where architectural research across disciplines is more common.
MIT does have a strong history and theory component if you are also able to take classes at Harvard. Though I don't know if that is common.
这是说哈佛的理论很强,MIT可以去选那边的课,事实上这种情况非常少(我目前还没有见到有人这么做),在建筑学校呆过的基本都知道,必修就排的满满的,很少有人会跨校去选课,尤其还是理论课。
My partner did an advanced studio there last year and she was one of only three choices.
adv.studio不清楚,但是就前两年来说每学期三个critic,是随机分配而不是选的。所以并没有choice,并且这三个常常风格类似,而YALE的10个是可以真正的选择并且风格各异的
