Organized by Georgeen Theodore, Dir. Master of Infrastructure Planning, and Ana Penalba Estebanez, Lecturer, the Hillier College of Architecture and Design at New Jersey Institute of Technology shares their upcoming lectures for Spring 2021. The College shares, "The world is facing unprecedented challenges: an ongoing pandemic, structural racism, global warming, political instability, and increasing economic inequality." This Spring their lecture series "explores the topic of responsibility, probing how architecture and design have contributed to these conditions, questioning architectures’ and designs’ ability to respond, and exploring different models of professional responsibility, asking how does architecture/design respond and what is the architect/designer’s responsibility?"

Archinect's ongoing Get Lectured series features each school's lecture series and their graphic design prowess with eye-catching lecture posters.
