L. Reynaud the successor to J. -N. -L. Durand taught the architecture course at the Ecole Polytechnique from 1837 to 1867. By analyzing his typical teaching programmes from 1838. 1850 and 1853, there are revealed theoretical characteristics of the architectural education in the middle of nineteenth century. On the one hand he followed in Durand's footsteps, on the other hand he set great importance on building construction based on scientific knowledge as well as on a new material, iron. It also becomes clear that aesthetic proportions and forms should be finally accomplished not by the scientific methods but by the "gout" of each architect. Putting an architect for such a position, he semmed to have established a new professional outline as a modern civil engineer.
