Learning outcomes
The student's degree course aims at the museumisation of some archaeological sites identified within the Emilia-Romagna territorial sphere. The course provides the methodological tools for the development of a system of fruition through an articulated and coherent path of the findings discovered in urban or rural contexts. The historical and archaeological knowledge of the sites combined with the analysis of the material conditions of the finds is a basic starting point. The course is also aimed at the recovery, conservation and protection of archaeological artefacts using structures that are capable of fulfilling their task by meeting existing conservation standards. Students at the end of the course acquire the knowledge necessary to be able to intervene in the complexity of urbanized reality or in any case anthropized, dense with stratification and overlapping.
Course contents
The final degree studio will start the second semester on March 2019, it will ends the first half of July for a total of 16 weeks.
The design studi is combine by - Composizione Architettonica e urbana, 4 CFU = 48 hrs; - Allestimento e Museografia, 4 CFU = 48 hrs; - Architettura strutturale, 6 CFU = 72 hrs; - L'Arte di costruire, 2 CFU = 24 hrs.
The research conducted by graduate students will have as its
objective the museum display of some archaeological sites
identified within the geographical scope of Emilia-Romagna and
Marche. The research will then give the possible answers regarding
knowledge of historical and archaeological sites, the material
condition of the finds, recovery, conservation and protection,
their use within a specific path and consistent, to the possibility
of an intervention on experimental archeology, with the definition
of areas of exhibition, the theme of time thresholds, the system of
spaces for teaching, testing labs, laboratories and archaeological
deposits, the refreshment areas.
Graduating students will conduct research work individually or in
groups composed of up to two people. In case of groups students
will need to define clearly the contributions of individuals.
The working method consists in daily commitment in the classroom
for the development of tables of analysis and design studies
conducted through drawings and models coordinated with teachers.
The processing is accompanied by the study of sources and critical
essays regarding the topics covered in the workshop or indicated by
the teacher, through benchmarking projects or projects related to
the issues under investigation.
There will provided one or more study tours for taking direct view
of the most recent and updated achievements regarding solutions
related to the specific topic of the Laboratory.
NOTE
For further informations of the issues listed above is desirable
the participation to the International Seminar on Museography -
International Prize of Architecture and Archaeology "Giambattista
Piranesi" which takes place in Villa Adriana in Tivoli every year
in the first two weeks of September. The Master degree in
Architecture of the University of Bologna, recognizes students
participating 4 credits. For further information on the
International Seminar can be found at

Teaching methods
The teaching of Composizione architettonica e urbana is of 4 CFU of 48 hours. The course will be organized in two parts, the first theoretical research, the second to implement the notions learned in the first through the drafting of a project.
In the first part there will be a series of theoretical lessons and illustrations of significant examples. The lessons will be accompanied by regular meetings with individual students and some collective seminars on the state of progress of the works to which external lecturers will be able to attend. Bibliographies on specific topics will be provided weekly. Students in the first part of the course will be asked to study a museum-based of an archaeological site. I will be then asked to redesign the site by using plants, sections, and prospects to try to understand the existing hierarchical relationships or the relationship between the public places of the city and the archeological site itself. In the second part, the student will have to draw up a project on a certain area allocated for the museumization of an archaeological site.
Assessment methods
For the achievement of suitability at the Laboratorio di Laurea, each student will have to develop a design theme related to the specific specification proposed at the "Architecture for Archeology" laboratory, by presenting elaborate graphs and scripts to illustrate the project proposal in a completed way .
The historical and archaeological knowledge of the sites as well as the analysis of the material conditions of the finds will be verified in suitability. The final project will have to implement the retrieval, conservation and protection of archaeological artefacts using structures that are capable of fulfilling their task by meeting existing conservation standards.
An integral part of the final examination will also be the exercises assigned by the professors of the distinct disciplinary contributions.
Teaching tools
The lesson material will be made available electronically via the digital platform available to the students of the Master Degree Course. Username and password are reserved for students enrolled at the University of Bologna. This material must be printed and delivered to lesson.
The lab's equipment, tables and lockers are available to course students from Monday to Friday at the normal opening hours of the facility.
