Dr. Kath Williams presented a three-session series of lectures for the ARCH 690 graduate students. The Global Track is a dual degree between Tongji University in Shanghai and University of Hawaii-Manoa School of Architecture.
The School of Architecture at the University of Hawai‘i at MÄnoa, and the College of Architecture and Urban Planning at Tongji University are partnered to offer a unique dual degree opportunity that will result in a Master’s Degree (MArch) in China and an accredited Doctor of Architecture (DArch) in the United States. The Global Track China Focus is a 3-year option within the University of Hawai‘i’s Doctor of Architecture program and includes coursework in both China and the United States.
Teaching virtually, Kath detailed the background and strategies of LEED, an analysis of the five LEED categories, and opportunities to use LEED as a tool for design, education, measurement, and certification. Students were encouraged to take the LEED-GA exam following this course and additional study as needed.
