Architecture Research Symposium – Spring 2006
The intent of this symposium is to increase awareness, both internally and externally, of the relationships between research, creative activities, and teaching design subjects. The Architecture Program at the University of Kansas is committed to an environment where design and the creative process are enriched by knowledge gained through research and creative activities. We believe that improving the built environment will best be served by informing our design decisions through rigorous and systematic inquiry – through research in all of its forms.
Because there is such a wide variety of approaches and methodologies available for research and creative activities in architecture, we have decided to share our work with each other, our students, and with the larger university community. The upcoming research symposium, to be held the week of March 27, will have the main event on March 29, 2006, in Alderson Auditorium in the Kansas Union. This is one form of celebrating our creative work and research in progress, and we expect a full series of events. Please join us! The final program and schedule includes a panel discussion on Monday and on Friday, 12:30 pm in the Jury Room of Marvin Hall, as well as an exhibit of faculty creative work for the poster sessions on display all week in the Jury Room.
