SCI-Arc 2023 Graduate Thesis Weekend

SCI-Arc is proud to present its annual Graduate Thesis Weekend. In recognition of the exceptional talents that form the Graduate Thesis class of 2023, this year’s graduating M.Arch 1 and M.Arch 2 students will share their thesis projects with their community, colleagues, and public, capping a year of extensive research and experimentation. The Graduate Thesis work will be open to the public during Grad Thesis Weekend reviews and will remain on view in the SCI-Arc halls until September 13.

This year’s graduating class has delved into the potential of advancements in technology—particularly artificial intelligence—to expand the boundaries of architectural design and expression. Through their innovative experimentation, they have harnessed AI algorithms and machine learning techniques to enhance their creative processes and generate novel architectural solutions. Students have also recognized the urgency and significance of addressing environmental challenges through architecture and design; through their research and creative endeavors, they aim to inspire dialogue, provoke action, and drive sustainable change.

“Our graduating students have confronted the profound realization that our world and its infrastructure demand reimagining,” said Graduate Programs Chair Elena Manferdini. “Their theses mark the inaugural stride into a new world, one they envision and aspire to create. I wholeheartedly encourage both our local and international community to join us at SCI-Arc during Graduate Thesis Weekend, immersing themselves in the alternative future we all yearn to be a part of. Let us engage, learn, and collaborate as we embark on this transformative journey together.”
