Academic missions · Architecture and Urban Planning

Academic missions for Architecture: conferences, seminars and forums.

Architecture is understood by walking through it. We design missions for Architecture, Urban Planning and Interior Design programs that combine city tours, visits to projects and studios, and industry events.

Upcoming conferences and events for Architecture

International events organized by third parties, with dates verified on their official websites. We can design your group's trip to any of them.

Conferences, seminars and forums you can build into the trip

An academic mission for Architecture and Urban Planning can be built around an industry event. You choose the event, or we help you weigh the options; we design the itinerary and coordinate flights, lodging, transfers and complementary activities according to the services booked.

Architecture conferences

Gatherings on design, sustainable construction, housing and the city.

Biennials and exhibitions

Architecture and design exhibitions, depending on their current program.

Urban planning seminars

Sessions on mobility, public space, urban renewal and planning.

Workshops

Design exercises with local universities or collectives, subject to arrangement.

Registration for each event depends on its organizers and their current terms. In the proposal, we spell out what the trip includes and which arrangements are handled by the event.

Visits that enrich the mission

In addition to the event, the agenda can include academic, corporate and institutional visits, subject to arrangement and availability:

  • Renowned architectural works and projects
  • Architecture studios and firms
  • Urban planning agencies
  • Schools of architecture at other universities
  • Historic districts and heritage sites

Destinations we can quote

Medellín and Bogotá are regional benchmarks for urban transformation. Barcelona, Madrid, Seville, Rome, Florence and Venice are classic destinations for architecture. Each destination is evaluated based on the program's goals, dates and availability. If you're unsure, read how to choose the destination for an academic mission.

How we design your mission

  1. We listen to your idea: the event or topic, dates, group profile and approximate budget.
  2. We design the proposal: itinerary, services and alternatives.
  3. We present the trip to the faculty lead and the group, with a clear scope and terms.
  4. We coordinate bookings and registrations, with payment tracking.
  5. We support the experience as agreed.
Faculty lead the learning. We make the experience possible.
