Education and Practice: The Critical Interface

14 - 17 October 1993 Texas A&M University College Station, Texas

Virtually every phase of architectural design, and most courses in architectural education, are impacted by computer-aided design systems in offices and schools. As a result, software and hardware vendors find themselves in the middle of a difficult but interesting dilemma. While supporting systems that have been optimized for professional practice, they are also asked to supply radically different systems for educational use.

This year's annual conference enables participants to discuss how today's universities, architectural firms, and software manufacturers can work together to better meet the needs of today's architects and architectural students. For Registration Information:
