Rethinking architectural education - the new EU directive and the role of live projects by Denicke-Polcher, Sandra, Jessen, Dann, Markey, Anne, Mitchell, Maurice, Tang, Bo, Khonsari, Torange

“…The symposium was held as part of the 2nd Annual AAE Conference 2014 - Living and Learning - at the University of Sheffield and encouraged the participants to discuss the teaching method of Live Projects as part of the typical 5 year architectural education in the UK. Within the context of the new EU directive and the potential for a rethinking of the “3+2 years” (+ 2 years in practice) usual architectural education in the UK, Live Projects play an important role, adding practical experience to a shorter “5+0 years” model (without the year in practice). …”
