High School Architecture Summer Career Workshop

June 22 – July 18, 2008

PROGRAM FULL

The Architecture Department will offer an intensive 4-week in-residence workshop designed for high school students considering architecture as a career or developing a design portfolio. Students are presented an in-depth view of the career through hands-on experience in studio design exercises, lectures, projects and field trips. Activities cover architectural design and history, computer applications, building science, structural engineering and site planning. Studios and lectures are taught by the faculty of the College of Architecture and Environmental Design. Education and career advising are integral elements of the program. Participating students live in residence halls where they become familiar with the dynamics of campus life. The program typically runs mid June - mid July, which includes lodging, most meals, field trips and most materials. The size of the class is limited to about 40 and usually filled by mid May. Qualified students are accepted in order of receipt of completed application and deposit.
