On Tuesday, May 11 (noon-1:30 CT), the SAH Architectural Studies Affiliate Group will hold its inaugural event: a roundtable at which we will discuss our aspirations for the group. What do we hope to get from this opportunity to connect with other scholar-teachers associated with Architectural Studies programs?
A word about our focus: Architectural Studies is a growing component of the undergraduate liberal arts curricula at many colleges and universities, generally those that do not offer pre-professional architectural education. Often housed in an art history department and directed by an architectural historian, Architectural Studies programs generally feature an interdisciplinary major and/or minor capable of providing students with a range of critical perspectives on the built environment, as well as preparation for professional graduate study. The SAH Architectural Studies Affiliate Group provides opportunities for SAH members associated with and interested in Architectural Studies programs to discuss the institutional and pedagogical challenges unique to these programs.
The event is free and open to everyone. Registration is required. Please follow this link for registration information.
We look forward to seeing you there!
