In general, architectural education in the United States has two objectives; I} prepara· tion of students for their future responsibilities as memben of contemporary society, and 2) preparation for proficiency in the professional field of architecture. The particular balance of these objectives varies with time and place. Together they represent the prerequisites for the proper study of architecture if the requirements of changing patterns of living are to be met through effective utilization of scientific methods. Every program, in its way, provides for a knowledge and application of te<:hnological means to meet human needs. This process, called design, requires judgment, creative skill, and imagination. and is central to architectural education os well as to architecture.

The two components represented by 1) the humanities and 2) the technological, when subjected to the process of design form the basis of architectural education in the United States. (panel 3) Design, and preporation for design, accounts for approximately half of the students' total undergraduote work. Beginning courses, identified as 'design fundamentals' are aimed at the development of visual perception and a knowledge of materials, structure,

form and their relationlhips in the organi1:ation of ~ace (panels" through 7). laler. emphasis is placed on the development of ability to analyze. evaluate and Int99rate the components af architectural design. Problems increase in technical and social complexity from the design of simple structures to large centen (panels 8 through 19), and the planning of small communities to vast regions (panels 20 through 27).

One purpose of the exhibit hal been to express the enence of the work of the approximately 10,000 architectural students enrolled in schools across the United States. In the material exhibited, deloil has been eliminated to gain clarity and compactness. Projects utilizing models rather than drawings have been favored in the interests of format and scale. Within the limitations of reproduction, effort has been made to raftect accurately the content and intent of the original work. Whatever architecture Is, it is 01 leas' parriy a visual art, and its forms have an eloquence that enablel studentl of orchilecture to break through conventional barrien of communication and respond to the greeting' of their colleagues abroad.
