International investment law is emerging as a distinct and important field of international law. International investment law addresses the regulation of the behavior of sovereign States towards foreign investors; issues such as the rights and obligations of international investors and also the rights and obligations of the host states. This Course will analyse the aim and evolution of the law of investment. We shall focus on examining the rapidly evolving treaty law establishing international efforts to regulate foreign investment by the United Nations, WTO, OECD and World Bank. We will go on to look at Bilateral Investment Treaties and analyse the case-law on the treatment of foreign investment. We shall also examine the way in which investment disputes are solved - particularly focusing on the World Bank's International Centre for the Settlement of Investment Disputes (ICSID).

Seminar in Thesis Research
This course prepares students to clearly articulate in an academic writing format the kinds of commitments and procedures including a projected time-line he/she has developed for an expected healthy outcome in their practice-based research and design. This course aims to assist students in the process of realising their aim in both conceptual and technical terms. This course aims to prepare students for thesis writing and it is finalised by submission of a written proposal and an oral presentation to committee of 3 (including the Supervisor) and the student must receive a Pass in order to proceed to the final stages of the thesis.

Aesthetics and Architecture
This course offers students ways and means by which to further develop their understanding of the principles and theories of aesthetics in architectural design, interior design and urbanism. In this course the students will explore theories of aesthetics with a focus on environment whereby environmental aesthetic considerations will be examined. Reflecting on the effects and influences of globalization on architectural practices, as well as engaging in group discussions will enrich our understanding of the intersections between local and global concerns.

Research in Modern Architecture
This course endeavors to engage the Master's students of architecture in the processes of gathering and analyzing historical and theoretical discourses in the field of architecture of Modernism. The candidates will work toward further sharpening their own research skills, data collection, its interpretation and evaluation within their own social, cultural, political and professional context. The students will be equipped with skills in the critical analyses of the material collected in relation to architecture of modernism, subsequently contributing to the further development and understanding of the field of Modernist Architecture.

Art & Design Stdio 1
This course is deigned to encourage material and conceptual explorations toward innovation in a chosen field, for developing new perceptions, sharpening of awareness, new ways of seeing. Developed innovative abilities in the field will be coupled with developed verbal and visual communicative skills for practicing effectively in the contemporary art & design arena.
MFA502
Art & Design Stdio II
The sharpened conceptual and material skills in Studio I will be put in practice toward developing a solo graduation project in this more advanced course. Students will be expected to be able to develop artistic flexibility and adaptability in relation to exhibiting in a gallery, private or public space. In order to develop a healthy and robust artistic sensibility and practice relevant to our time there will be intense conversational critique sessions on one to one and group situations. We believe that ultimately the most valuable critic in the art world is the artist/designer himself/herself. However the collegial environment provided by our team members prepares the right physical and psychological space within which journey to artistic maturity can be taken. Successfully concluding Studio II is a punctuation to be followed by the life-long artistic engagements.
MFA505
Art Design & Environment
In this course students are introduced to contemporary topical issues, such as the relations between environment, design and society, so that they could fully appreciate the importance of viewing their practice within the broader socio-cultural, political and spatial context. Master candidates will be expected to research in a critically engaging way, of a topic relating to environmental issues of our time, and present their findings and evaluations within their area of art & design practice.
MFA506
Seminar
This course prepares student to clearly articulate in an academic writing format the kinds of commitments and procedures with a projected time-line he/she has developed for an expected healthy outcome in studio practice. This course aims to assist students in the process of realising their aim in both conceptual and technical terms.
MFA510
Drawing
With this course the aim is to enhance students' understanding of the importance of engaging in the activity of drawing through which ideas can be generated and ideas can be scrutinised in that visual media. One can derive pleasure from simply drawing observationally and imaginatively that can be energising toward artistic maturity. Students will be expected to do numerous observational and imaginative drawings and be open to cross-disciplinary critique sessions where by they can register and evaluate their own progress in developing fertile grounds for though and practice.
MFA512
Interfacing the Local and the International
This course aims to extend the conceptual, practical and experiential parameters of your chosen practice in relation to interactivities between local and international trends in the fields of art and design.
MFA515
Research Methods in Art & Design
This course introduces students to theories (and theories where ever necessary), design and processes (methods) of art and design research relating to their course project. This is a substantive part of the MFA program focusing on practice and issues pertaining to application and operation of art and design methods. Enhancing and fine-tuning of knowledge in research skills, and working towards increasing students understanding of the style, form and discipline of art and design enquiry is the main learning objective.
MFA516
Critical Reading and Writing
The main objective of this post-graduate course is to contribute to the critical enhancement of the chosen creative practice, based on the premise that for a creative practice to be optimally relevant to its time and place, the practitioner needs sound levels of both conceptual and technical skills. The course will be student-driven and it will therefore require rigorous engagement on the part of students. The students will be introduced to some key contemporary ideas, asked to research them in relation to their practice, and to present their findings for group discussion and review. Students will be encouraged to research and develop their own design ideas to be both conceptually and technically relevant in the broader socio-cultural and political context.
MFA518
Sculpture and Installatİon
This is an advance course that looks at the 3D design and space relationship where the definition of sculpture is constantly evolving. It is expected that students engaged in this course will have sound prior knowledge of the differences and similarities between 2D and 3D art objects and their relationship to each other - however prior knowledge is not a pre-requisite. Students will learn how to engage in thought and material experiments in relation to sculpture & installation and viewers' reception of them.
