AAE Conference 2013
Thursday 4 - Friday 5 April 2013
Nottingham Trent University
Call for abstracts now open - Deadline 31 December 2012
The inaugural AAE Conference 2013, hosted by Nottingham Trent University and Association of Architectural Educators UK, will interrogate the status of architectural studio and its scope of enquiry pedagogically, professionally and culturally. The conference will look to illuminate the How? What? and Why? of studio teaching, and its application and impact on architectural design research and practice.
The aim of the conference is to raise issues in architectural education and bring academics together to resolve problems, pose questions and explore further development in education. The AAE 2013 Conference will reduce this gap and allow for international connections to be made or reinforced, thereby encouraging and facilitating benchmarking in architectural education through the generation of awareness and commonality.
The conference's key aims are to:
- Develop, support and represent communities of practice and learning in architectural education in the UK and Ireland.
- Foster inclusive dialogues between the AAE community, students and employers, and educational and professional bodies.
- Encourage research and scholarship of teaching and learning in architectural education.
- Promote the value, richness, quality, and diversity inherent in architectural education.
Selected papers from the conference will be published in the first AAE Journal Edition, while there are also a limited number of spaces available for current students.
