Entry requirements The Curricular Unit has no entry requirements, however it assumes that students successfully attended the Architectural Design Curricular Units of the previous years.
Learning outcomes The Project IV/2 course, following on from Project V/1, through design practice, studies programmes and methodologies that facilitate intervention proposals in complex urban realities, promoting an understanding of the problem of architectural object design and urban restructuring, in an integrated architectural vision. It starts from an inverse relationship to the previous semester in length and detail, first designing the ‘Construction of New “Objects” and rehabilitation of “Existing Structures” to Urban Project in the “construction of the form of inhabiting” the city.

Syllabus We start from an inverse relationship to the previous semester, in the development of work from the particular to the general. This achieves the goal of continuous development, in the same area of intervention, of questioning various themes of work, allowing for the articulation and establishment of the confrontation of different scales and design problems, from the general to the particular and vice versa. In the first phase, the students will be asked to delve individually into the selected sector of intervention in the development of the School of Architecture's programme, by building new architectural ‘objects’ and/or renovating ‘Existing Structures’, from the proposed idea and its formalisation to its material and constructive characterisation. In a second phase, the themes and individual sectoral work proposals will be reinserted into the urban integration of the whole urban area.

Teaching Methodologies and Assessment Criteria The pedagogy will focus on three interrelated components:
Theoretical classes on themes and contents of the program, and framework of different phases of the practical project exercises;
Practical project exercises defined in the curriculum program and in the statements for the semester, with stages of increasing complexity in function of the predefined objectives;
Critical follow-up classes of the different phases of the practical project exercise – presentation and critical discussion in class and tutorial follow-up.
Evaluation:
Continuous and in-person assessment with communication of qualitative grades assigned at the end of each phase of the project and after discussion and submission of the work;
At the end of the semester, an evaluation of the work produced is carried out, which will have a final classification assessed with equity among the students who developed this program.
Language Portuguese. Tutorial support is available in English.
