A design curriculum is designed and run for a reason. The architectural graduate characteristics were influenced by their experience when gaining knowledge and skills at architecture school.

A Facebook post discussion referred to the architect Frank Duffy's 5S diagram of "site, structure, skin, space, stuff".  After exchanging comments, I discussed here how the design curriculum may affect the architect's character and traits.

In the first instance in the Part 1 episode, I speculated and discussed UTM's design thesis themes of (1) Building facade and (2) Urban design and planning (diagram by Dr Azari), compared with UM's design thesis labs of (1) Green and sustainable architecture, (2) Urban & community architecture, and (3) Heritage and conservation architecture.
