CASA is concerned with the development of research in emerging computer technologies in several disciplines dealing with geography, space, location and the built environment. This interdisciplinary research centre draws expertise from the fields of archaeology, architecture, cartography, computer science, environmental science, geography, geomatic engineering, planning, remote sensing and transport studies.
CASA is a department within the Bartlett Faculty of the Built Environment and often has associated students in other departments. This structure generates a unique blend of knowledge forming the core of the MRes ASAV.
Programme objectives: The MRes is unique in its focus on complexity, modelling, mapping and visualisation, pulling together the latest research in urban form, functionality and communication. Recent changes in the rise of web-based technologies and the development of low cost yet complex visualisation and analysis packages have generated a notable change in the demand for more traditional vendor-specific information systems and computer-aided design courses. The MRes ASAV reflects this change with a look towards Web 3. 0 (Read, Write, Execute) technologies and methods to deliver skills required for current/future professionals and policy makers engaged in spatially related projects. The programme aims to provide training in the principles and skills of social and spatial research. Its aims include a strong understanding of qualitative and quantitative research methodology and methods of data collection and analysis to support and enable independent and group research projects.
