AWARDS

BERKELEY PRIZE 2011 is launched! Deadline for entries: 1 November 2010
The Berkeley Undergraduate Prize for Design Excellence endowment was established in the Department of Architecture at the University of California, Berkeley to promote architecture as a social art through research, writing, and criticism: traditionally under-represented aspects of the architecture curriculum. Each year, the Prize Committee selects a topic important to the understanding of the interaction of people and the built world that becomes the focus of the Essay Competition. This year the topic is: Valuing the Sacred.
The Committee poses a Question on this website related to the topic. Students enrolled in any undergraduate architecture program throughout the world are invited to submit a 500-word essay proposal responding to the Question. Undergraduate architecture students may team up with undergraduates from Allied Arts and Social Sciences programs.

COMPETITIONS

Picturing Progress: A U.N. Photo Contest

Meanwhile, the U.N.'s second annual Picture This photo contest has come to a close, with the aim of reinvigorating the cause through images.
