Dear GSAPP Alumni and Friends,

This month at GSAPP we welcomed students enrolled in the 5 week Intro to Architecture and Intro to Urban Planning programs, as well as speakers for lectures and conversations affiliated with the MSAAD, MSAUD, MSCDP, and MSRED programs. Please view the GSAPP events calendar for upcoming programs. We would like to congratulate the GSAPP alumni named in Wallpaper Magazine’s USA 400 List, highlighting the people defining America’s creative landscape.

GSAPP students in the M.S. Architecture and Urban Design program visited the Resilient Cities Catalyst office last week. We would like to extend our gratitude to Candelaria Mas Pohmajevic ‘20 MSAUD, Associate Director; Amelia Smyth, Program Manager; and Ella Sahertian, Urban & Climate Resilience Practitioner for hosting our students. The presentation and discussion provided valuable insights into the impactful work being carried out to address the most pressing challenges in cities and communities globally.

Would you like to welcome GSAPP students to your office for a visit with a presentation and discussion session? Alternatively, we could hold an information session at GSAPP or via Zoom. If interested, please email careers@arch.columbia.edu.
