The camp will be hosted in person at UTSA and UT Austin over two days. Students will be divided into small groups and paired with mentors from the professional community and Architecture students from the student chapters of NOMAS at UTSA and UT Austin. The mentors will help guide the students through a series of design exercises ranging from a LEGO build, sketching, and creating a collage. All of this will lead to the students designing and building a model of an improvement for their city.
Throughout the activities, mentors will share their experiences in Architecture school and in professional practice to give the students a better idea of what the profession of Architecture is like. During the lunch hour, students from the NOMAS chapters at UTSA and UT Austin will give a presentation on the programs at their schools and lead tours of the facilities.
