Article Citation - WoS: 2Citation - Scopus: 4A Critical Evaluation of Mathematics Courses in Architectural Education and Practice(Springer Verlag, 2010) Çıkış, ŞenizMathematics courses are integral part of architectural education. The content and objectives of these courses were determined in the Age of Enlightenment. Although conditions have changed since then, they still exist without being subjected to a radical revision. This study aims to introduce the necessary information for upgrading the content of mathematics courses to contemporary conditions. On these grounds, the historical conditions when these courses were first considered within architectural education are classified and then the content of existing mathematics courses are examined. Finally, the effects of mathematics and mathematics courses on the epistemology of the profession are scrutinized. © 2008 Springer Science+Business Media B.V.
