Architecture Summer Institute 23'

Overview

For Summer 2023 the Architecture Summer Institute will be offering three tracks which build upon each other, on both the FAU Boca Raton and Ft Lauderdale Campuses. The sessions are scheduled for July 10th - August 4th. The program will be open to rising sophomores, juniors or seniors in high school; recent high school graduates; and students in their first two years of college. All students with or without a design background are welcome. This program is not for college credit but students will receive a certificate of completion at the end of the program.

Throughout the program, students will produce a variety of work that can be used as part of a portfolio when applying to colleges. Students will have the opportunity to display and participate in a final critique of their work. Enrollment is on a first-come, first served basis and space is limited.

Daily Schedule

The schedule is 9am to 4:30pm Monday through Friday. Participants will engage in space planning, drawing, and model building. Participants will also have the opportunity to take field trips to visit local architecture firms as well as the downtown Fort Lauderdale campus where the upper division architecture program is located. In the second and third week, the camp will move to the Ft Lauderdale Campus and participants will be engaging with cutting edge digital fabrication technologies which are the future of architectural education and the industry at large. Interaction with faculty members and upper division architecture students help to provide a foundation for a memorable architectural school experience.
