The characteristic work themes of the three sectors can be summarized as follows:

ICAR/14 – Architectural and Urban Composition
The scientific-disciplinary contents refer to the architectural project, in its extension from the detail to the urban dimension, as a process and moment of synthesis. They are articulated in methodological aspects, concerning the theories of contemporary design; analytical-instrumental, for the study of the distributive, typological, morphological, linguistic characteristics of architecture and the city; compositional, concerning the aggregative and formal logic with which the organism defines itself in its elements and parts and relates to its context; design, for the solution of specific issues relating to new or built interventions.

ICAR/15 – Landscape Architecture
The scientific-disciplinary contents have as their object the landscape structure of the territory, of the non-built areas and of the open spaces, as well as the organization of the green, as a system within which the built part of the city and the territory is located. Recognizing as fundamental elements the environmental diversities and the historical, cultural, ecological and aesthetic pre-existing ones and as characterizing the enhancement of the ecology procedures in the design processes, they include activities concerning the planning and landscape management of the territory, the design of green urban systems, the redevelopment and recovery of degraded areas, the design of gardens and parks, the inclusion of infrastructure in the landscape and the control of landscape evolution.

ICAR/16 – Interior Architecture and Exhibition
The scientific-disciplinary contents are distinguished from the central lineage of the themes pertaining to the field of architectural design, as they refer to themes that have a particular autonomy for method and tools, implying interactions with different other sectors. They concern theoretical aspects of architecture focused on the relationships between usable spaces, objects, images, people and application aspects related to the specific design problems of interior architecture and furnishing, as well as those of exhibition design, museography, scenography, of decoration.

ICAR 18 – Professors and researchers deal with themes of history, architecture criticism and theory, urban history, city and territory, focusing on the identification and analysis of sources and their interpretation, within social and intellectual material contexts and critical theories of their own.
ICAR 19 – The protection of the built heritage, the modalities of its transmission to the future are at the center of ongoing research, which are based on material history and the direct analysis of historical buildings, to highlight the resource dimension and direct care and enhancement practices.

ICAR/12 – Architecture technology
The theories, tools and methods of architectural design at different scales, as well as the techniques of transformation and maintenance of the built environment; the environmental and social sustainability of the architectural project, understood as a forecast of actions that regulate the flows of matter, energy, information exchanged continuously between eco-techno-environment (buildings/settlement systems) and established people/communities.

ICAR/22 – Estimo
Theoretical principles, methodologies for the estimation of assets, resources and projects, as well as models for the formulation of economic-financial appraisals of investments in the private and public sphere.
