| The AIA announces recipients of a new grant program The American Institute of Architects (AIA) announces the recipient of a new grant program to develop Practice Academy pilot programs. The Practice Academy is a new collaboration among the AIA, the architectural academy, and architecture firms to provide a framework for a rigorous internship for students and architectural interns. The intent of the Practice Academy is to stimulate life long learning for architectural professionals, beginning with interns, through the partnership of academics and practitioners. The grant program totals $90,000 and each of the selected schools of architecture will receive a total of $30,000 over the next three years to support the development of their proposed program. The selected programs are from the Boston Architectural College, Iowa State University, and the University of Cincinnati. write your comments about the article :: © 2006 Construction News :: home page |
