For the third time, due to Pandemic, Department of Architecture has arranged online thesis Jury of final year students [Spring 2020-21 semester] on 29th and 30th May, 2021. The event was shared live for students, alumni and interested audience from AIUB and other architecture schools.
The students worked under the guidance of Studio mentors Ar. Irfat Alam and Ar. Saiful Hasan Tariq, along with the Head - Ar. Arefeen Ibrahim and their respective thesis supervisors. The Jury Panel was graced by a good number of honorable external jurors including Ar. Jalal Ahmad (Ex- President of IAB), Ar.

Their valuable comments on the design projects helped the students to understand the potentials and shortcomings of their projects from different perspectives.
Many of the projects were highly commended by the jurors based on their merit and innovative ideas. Successful public events like these are essential to ensure wider exposure and better job opportunities for the graduating students. This also helps to establish a resourceful bonding between profession and academia.
Department of Architecture is thankful to the external jurors, practicing architects, participants, students and the University Administration for their support and would like to take this opportunity to wish a very bright, prosperous future to the fresh architects from AIUB.
