Learning for a new professionalism

Article Abstract:

Architectural educationalists and students attended a conference in Leicester, England, which examined the challenge to architectural education posed by changes in architectural practice. Practising architects are having to find new ways of working. Conference organisers, the Clients and Users in Design Education project, feel that traditional architectural curricula do not equip students with appropriate skills for these new methods. Conference participants were keen that examinations of architectural education should involve study of process as well as content.

Article Abstract:

A foundation in law influences a wide variety of architectural processes and provides a base for further practical knowledge to be developed by the student as their career progresses. It is proposed that Part 1 or Part 2 architecture students should be taught a module consisting entirely of architecturally related law.
