Sentiasa kreatif, imaginatif
Oleh Siti Fatimah Hassan

BIDANG seni bina turut menjadi pilihan ramai pelajar di institusi pengajian tinggi awam (IPTA) dan swasta (IPTS) selepas membuat keputusan dengan memasang cita-cita untuk bergelar seorang arkitek.

Kerjaya profesional itu menuntut tugas kritikal apabila diberi tanggungjawab mereka bentuk bangunan, susunan kawasan bandar dan luar bandar, merancang kemudahan asas dan menganggar kos projek.

Selain itu, mereka turut bertanggungjawab mengenal pasti keperluan pelanggan seperti peruntukan projek, kegunaan bangunan dan bila ia akan digunakan.

Menerusi pembangunan pesat di negara ini, pasaran pekerjaan untuk tugas itu sentiasa ada dalam sektor kerajaan dan swasta contohnya di Jabatan Kerja Raya, Perbadanan Pembangunan Bandar (UDA), Perbadanan Kemajuan Negeri dan institusi pengajian tinggi.

Semuanya terpulang kepada kebolehan serta kemampuan lepasan ijazah berkelayakan untuk berkecimpung dalam bidang berkenaan.

Semua arkitek yang sedang berkhidmat masih berdaftar dengan Persatuan Arkitek Malaysia (PAM).

Di samping itu, seorang arkitek perlu memastikan bangunan yang dibina mengikut spesifikasi, kemajuan kerja mengikut jadual dan perbelanjaan projek tidak melebihi peruntukan.

Terdapat beberapa arkitek yang dikelaskan mengikut kepakaran masing-masing seperti arkitek perancang bandar, arkitek landskap, arkitek jurukur bahan, arkitek kapal, arkitek marin dan arkitek bangunan.

Seperti yang diketahui, pelan menjadi asas terhadap tugas arkitek apabila ia memerlukan kemahiran kesenian jika ingin bergiat dalam bidang profesional itu.

Beberapa kemahiran lain juga amat diperlukan seperti kebolehan dalam analisis logik pengurusan dan pengaturan, kefahaman dalam Matematik, Sains, Fizik, Sejarah dan Kesenian sebelum layak bergelar seorang arkitek.

Pada masa sama, mereka perlulah kreatif dan imaginatif serta mempunyai daya pemerhatian tajam supaya tugas yang dipertanggungjawab dapat dilaksanakan dengan berkesan.

Seorang arkitek perlu mempunyai kelayakan dalam bidang seni bina dan terdapat beberapa IPTA dan IPTS menawarkan kursus terbabit.

Di Universiti Teknologi Malaysia (UTM), contohnya, pelajar perlu mendapatkan kelulusan yang baik pada peringkat Sijil Pelajaran Malaysia (SPM) atau mereka perlu mendapat lima kepujian dalam lima mata pelajaran termasuk Bahasa Melayu dan Matematik.

Pelajar akan mengikuti pengajian selama tiga tahun dan dianugerahkan diploma. Pelajar yang layak akan dibenar melanjutkan pengajian ke peringkat ijazah untuk tempoh tiga tahun.

Mereka juga perlu lulus peperiksaan yang dikendalikan Lembaga Arkitek Malaysia dan Pertubuhan Arkitek Malaysia bagi mendapatkan pengiktirafan sebagai arkitek bertauliah.

Ia termasuklah Universiti Malaya (UM), Universiti Teknologi Malaysia (UTM), Universiti Teknologi Mara (UiTM), Universiti Putra Malaysia (UPM).

Selain itu, Kolej Tunku Abdul Rahman, L&G - Twintech Institute Of Technology, Lim Kok Wing Institute Of Creative Technology, Taylors College dan Kolej Ikram.

an excerpt from the stuff that i've been reading we'renot talking about what's the difference in terms of what architects door what scientists achieve. we're talking about the fundamentaldifference between architects and scientists, although both go intosimilar process of problem solving. the very core of how an architectthinks is different, and more importantly, architects approach problemsolving in a different way. lawson (1997) have established astudy experimenting on a group of architects and a group of scientists.the results were apparent enough to draw a conclusion that architectsdont think the same way scientists do. his experiment pointedout that scientists generally adopted a strategy of systematicallyexploring the possible combinations to a problem solution in order todiscover the fundamental rule which would allow a permissablecombination. basically scientists will explore all possibilities ofattempting a design solution, and find the best way to solve it. architects,on the other hand, are more inclined to propose a series of solutions,and to have these solutions eliminated, until they found an acceptableone. architects immediately provide alternative solutions and goesthrough another process which eventually provides the best solution. the experiment suggests that scientists problem solve by analysis, whereas designers problem solve by synthesis. itis also established, in other research, that there are virtually nodifference in the way of thinking of secondary school students betweenscience based, humanities or art based. presumably they learn, aretaught or discover in architecture education, specifically in thestudio. in UTM itself, it is common that the administration goesneck to neck with the architecture department on the issues of thestudio. to the scientists, studios are like workshop, while toengineers, studio is like a lab. this is true, if we're looking at itsuperficially. studio is not a workshop, due to the fact thatdesign requires learning and doing occuring simultaneously. studio isnot a lab either, where theory is learnt simultaneously withpracticals. this is a concept that the administration in almost everyuniversity in the world have a problem with. the definition of a studio. however, to put it easily, UTM have come up with the nickname "design lab", to justify the existence of the studio. havingthe foundation of thinking differing between architects and scientists,it is up to the students reading this short article now, to make bestof who they are. references 1. Cross, Nigel (1982). "DESIGNERLY WAYS OF KNOWING", Journal of Design Studies, Volume 3 Issue 4 October 1982. 2. Lawson, Bryan (1997). "HOW DESIGNERS THINK: THE DESIGN PROCESS DEMYSTIFIED", 3rd Edition, Architectural Press, Oxford 3. Editorial (various years). "UNIT WORKBASE DESIGN BOOKLET", Department of Architecture, FAB, Universiti Teknologi Malaysia.

aku copy dari salah satu Forum community architect yg antara teraktif di malaysia... (www.tanggam.com) hohoho, anyway, aza ni adalaa salah sorg senior, member n lecturer yg cool laa di UTM...ahahha

RIBA president David Rock commented that architects were probably unaware of their animal magnetism: 揂rchitects were probably the only group on the list whose self-image is lower than their public image

Azim Tan Sri Aziz of ATSA Architects

From the drawing board

What makes an architect tick? In fact, what makes him or her want to become an architect in the first place? Talking with Azim Abdul Aziz, we can learn that - for him at least - it all began with 搕he love for drawing buildings
