Firmly committed to contemporary material practices, the program is constantly integrating new technologies into the curriculum.

Awards 

THE STUDIO PRIZE, 1st Place

We pin a lot of hopes on today’s architecture students. That’s nothing new, really: The next generation has always been scrutinized to see what principles and ideas they will develop and where they will steer design in the years to come. But in an era of climate change, rising housing costs, and a changing landscape of social awareness, that scrutiny has taken on a new sense of urgency. Change is necessary, and new approaches and innovators can help make it possible.

Innovative Minds 2017, Honorable Mention

Innovative Minds 2017 is an exploration of the relationship between the virtual world blending with physical architecture. The virtual world – built on the framework of vast data networks – is becoming increasingly referential to the nervous system. Architecture strives to tangibly enhance humanity’s wellbeing through the design of complex systems. As cybernetics increasingly interconnects the virtual and physical worlds, how will this relationship influence architecture and its physical context to solve complicated problems?
