INTRODUCTION:
In MEDICAL COLLEGES the academic environment of institutions is of major concern. The
“activities the students undergo in their entire college life” and “the interactive space and
learning environment they are well suited with”, are of great concern in planning. Institutions
like these concern great detail of research on both, student’s studying behavior, and standard
of technology in cooperated with curriculum. These institutions mostly are designed on the
basis of function, where the space is described by activities to be held.
Being an architect, it is of great concern that the plan should be such that the learning
environment may increase without losing any interest. Moreover the function and the form
both should in co operate each other, having direct or indirect on student’s learning.
Medical College is a live proposal in Silvassa, Dadra and Nagar Haveli. Shri Vinoba Bhave
Civil Hospital, has decided to undertake development of Medical College in Silvassa.
To derive guidelines for creating a medical education campus that promotes a conducive
environment for learning. All buildings shall be sustainable, energy efficient and use space
optimally. The entire campus should be designed as a zero discharge campus. Campus should be
designed so as to leave enough space for future expansion.
OBJECTIVE:
To study the different types of activities and interactive spaces in a campus in general and then
specifically in medical campus.
To understand how the spaces incorporated assist in the stimulation of beneficial thinking
among students, researchers, doctors, nurses and patients.
To study the different types of interactive spaces in different campuses through case studies
Derive guidelines for the design of conducive learning environment in a campus and implement
in my design.
SCOPE:
An educational institute plays a vital role in a developing nation. In the proposal study, will
investigate how a medical institute will be design while considering the learning environment.
The study will focus on the development of a medical college with the concern of the functionality
and form along with the environment consideration.
LIMITATIONS:
The human behavioural aspects are studied through observation. As the study design is about the
certain interactive spaces and learning environment of a campus. Due to the limitation of time,
planning of teaching hospital and residential units for staff or students would not be the part of
project but will be included in master planning. The limits of this study design are about the spaces of
the medical college and its uses.
