| Abstract | ||||
| Nowadays the activation of the sustainability aspect in the architectural education in Egypt is a must for both the present and the future. It is not a matter of just one of the proposed orientations in the field of developing architectural education systems in Egypt, because the cone of this aspect represents the communication between the variations of present and the developments of future, and the fulfillment of the continuous modernization of the experiences and skills of the graduates. The research sees that the Academic Programs are the most important element in the education environment which affects the activation of the sustainability aspect - without negligence of the other elements - as it is a strong effective element on the efficiency of those experiences through the determination of the headlines of scientific content of the subjects. The research focuses in presenting the proposed vision on an analytical study of a number of modern and contemporary academic programs. These programs are different in orientations locally and globally. The curriculum of this analytical study depends on classifying the studying subjects according to the achieving degree of the sustainable thought in the architect to the following four groups: (1) The first group: Fundamentals of complete Sustainable Subjects (2) The second group: Fundamentals of Partial Sustainable Merged Subjects (3) The third group: Fundamentals of Partial Sustainable unmerged Subjects and can be merged. (4)The fourth group: Fundamentals of Partial Sustainable unmerged Subjects and can't be merged. The research in this study aims at determining the oriented strong elements which affect the general vision of the system and their effect on approaching the goals of the studying program. To reach this objective the following topics were studied: Introduction: The pioneer role of the architect to realize the sustainable development. (1) Sustainability and architectural education. (2) Academic Programs as one element of the educational sustainable environment. (3) Establishing the scientific curriculum of the comparative analysis of the academic programs (Studying stages). (4) Analytical study display. (5) Oriented effective elements of the general vision of the studying program, (6) Framework of the proposed vision. (7) Applied framework of the proposed vision and its test. The research concluded to number of findings which result from the analytical statistics of data related to studying programs details and the effects of the different alternatives flexibility among its elements on the evaluation of the academic programs in Architectural Department - Faculty of Engineering - Mansoura University. | ||||
