What Civil Engineers Want Architects to Know

One of the most productive ways to help make that happen is through our role in managing your client’s expectations by identifying site constraints as early as possible.

Newly Endowed Scholarships: The University of Utah School of Architecture

During the last year, four new endowed scholarships were established to provide scholarship funding to SoA grad students. An endowed scholarship is a donation that is invested by the university, and the interest generated is used to fund scholarships each year. By endowing a scholarship, donors can make a lasting difference by helping deserving students over a long period of time and receive a tax deduction along the way. It is a wonderful way to make a lasting impact because colleges can rely on this funding perpetually.

Highlighting Dr. Ajla Aksamija

What led you to architecture? Why did you choose to become an academic in this field?
I was interested in art and design from an early age. My passion for artistic expression and design began in elementary school – I had a wonderful art teacher who exposed us to drawing, art history, the history of the built environment and different architectural styles. But the older I got, I also gained an interest in science, math, and technical areas. I was always the nerdy kid who represented my schools at math and science competitions.
