An Internship Far From the Mainstream
On July 2, 2009, I hopped on my pedal bike to begin what was to become a very profound journey.
My destination?
Oyster Bay Studio LARC 510
At the end of August, 2009 planning students Joanna Clark, Adam Hyslop, Paris Marshall Smith and Heather Fehr joined 15 other students from Architecture and Landscape Architecture to work with landscape architects Will Marsh and Paul de Greef and learn about site-adaptive design.
SCARP Affordable Housing Symposium
No matter what your profession, you’ve probably been to your share of conferences. From professional to academic, trade shows to think tanks, conferences are still the most popular way to share your research and ideas with a larger audience. In academia, paper presentations and face-to-face networking with other academics are still the norm even in our increasingly wired society.
Fourth Ph.D. Jamboree held at SCARP
This week-long gathering of close to 40 doctoral students from all over the world was the fourth such event held over the past 8 years.
NYC and Vancouver Summer Internships
I had been out of school almost five years before beginning graduate school for a master’s degree in urban planning at SCARP in 2008. Earlier stints with an architecture firm, as well as work with environmental organizations led me to pursue studies in urban design. As a native Texan who has had the opportunity to study and work overseas, I’ve always been interested in how cities integrate environmental concerns with place-making. Especially a city like New York.
