INNOVATION - The Bartlett Summer Foundation Course

The Bartlett School of Architecture’s Summer Foundation course, starting on 29th July 2013, is now open for applications. The programme, which can be studied over a 5-week or an 8-week period, is designed to prepare students for a future career in architecture and architectural education.

This year, students will investigate London’s transformation within the prevailing economic climate, and develop ideas to promote and celebrate a diverse and sustainable future environment.

Summer Foundation tutor, Carlos Jimenez, says: “The programme will provide students with a unique creative platform to improve their design skills and to acquire new ones through experimentation and fabrication...”

He adds: "This Summer Foundation experience will allow each student to develop their conceptual and critical thinking as well as a consistent design ethos within a playful and enjoyable atmosphere.”

The course welcomes a wide range of participants, of varying ages and differing backgrounds, including prospective Bartlett students, international students, secondary school students and those who have a career change in mind and want to use it as a test bed to see if they are suited to a university degree in architecture.

Application deadline: 31st May 2013
