Advancing the Education of Young Architecture Graduates through Foreign Travel-Study |
Process
2010 Competition Calendar
Applications and signed letters of agreement are due to
the Fellowship Secretary by the stated deadline. The
design competition brief will emphasize issues of resource
sustainability as integral aspects of architectural design.
The design competition starts at 5:00 pm PST on the
Thursday of the charrette weekend and closes precisely
at 5:00 pm PST the following Tuesday. Applicants must
download the competition program, complete their design
and then upload their finished submission on the Cavin
Family Traveling Fellowship web site
(http://www.cavinfellowship.org). The design competition is
absolutely an individual effort.
The selection jury is to be designated by the Fellowship
Secretary and may include Cal
Poly Pomona and University of Oregon Architecture faculty, and other practitioners.
During the first phase of the selection process 4 to 6 finalists will be selected. Finalists will
be required to submit physical boards of their project design for the final review without
modifications. Local finalists must attend the final jury at their own expense. Non-local
finalists must attend the final jury and will be reimbursed $200 for their documented
expenses.
Finalists will participate in a discussion of their design ideas and project concepts with the
jury and Fund representatives. Additionally, they will be asked about their travel-study plans
and what they believe can be accomplished through this opportunity if selected. The jury will
officially designate the year’s Cavin Scholar as well as an alternate.
