Sažetak
Academic institutions are addressing sustainable development issues in a variety of ways through their functions and operations. Universities have been using different approaches to implement sustainable development practices. Some concentrate on minimizing their ecological impact through changes in campus operations, some emphasize sustainability in the curriculum ; others introduce new teaching methodologies or include sustainable development principles in their overall development strategy. The Faculty of Architecture, University of Zagreb has the 98- year-long tradition of architect education. Available study programme Architecture and Urban Studies is a five-year-long programme in accordance with the Bologna process divided into two cycles: first cycle (three years) with bachelor's degrees and second cycle (two years) with master's degrees, which responds to the needs of the society, relevant legislation and standards of professional associations which award professional licenses. This paper focuses on integration of sustainable development in teaching and learning. The purpose is to investigate curriculum changes and re- orientation at the Faculty of Architecture in Zagreb. Those identified in this paper include mainstreaming in traditional disciplines and developing interdisciplinary courses on sustainable development. The design studios and technical courses at architecture degree programs offer students the opportunity to develop an integral approach to energy efficient and sustainable building design, complex use of technical systems, use of materials and development detailed design. By comparing a selection of students' works, in relation to a particular situation, the paper will present some achieved results, which can be used as a platform for new concepts, methodologies and approaches which exert influence on architectural practice and encourage the development of architectural discourse.
