Considering the current situation of COVID-19 in Japan, Department of Architecture decided to provide an online orientation session to new comer students in the afternoon of Thursday, April 2. Students are requested to attend online at home.

For lectures and exercises in S1 term starting from Friday April 3, The University of Tokyo including Department of Architecture decided to provide all lectures and exercises online that includes design studios. All students are required to take these courses online at home. Since it is the first time for most faculty members and most students to provide and attend lectures online, we, Department of Architecture, provides an orientation session of online lectures for all students of Department of Architectures and ask all students to attend this session online at home.

Online sessions will be held in a Zoom meeting room. We ask participants to access to the following URL before the meeting, to solve possible troubles that may prevent you from attending the sessions. Please note that this meeting is only for students of Department of Architectures, and recording and transmitting information to others are not allowed.
