Developing research on digital education and training in architectural design in the digital era: a case of study in Japan

Tóm tắt

The field of digital architecture is considered to be lagging behind, especially as computer-based design, data analysis, and workflow processing through the adoption of Building Information Modeling (BIM) as a global standard become prevalent.

This article aims to summarize and review the current situation and limitations of architectural education and training in Japan. It also explores the solutions Japan is implementing to avoid falling behind in this rapidly evolving field.

To keep pace with the continuous growth of digital technology, the ability to collect global information becomes necessary. Japan is strengthening integration efforts while supporting universities, research facilities, and businesses in the domestic architecture industry to develop in an international, focused direction. The focus is on two critical aspects of digitization globalization and sustainable development, with the goal of conducting research and proposing architectural research education infrastructure to produce adaptable architectural professionals for the new era.
