The Faculty of Architecture at the University of Innsbruck is pleased to announce its annual PhD Symposium, open to all enrolled UIBK architecture PhD students. The symposium provides a platform for students to showcase and discuss the current status of their research. Participants will present their work in a poster display and a 5-10 minute oral presentation, followed by a discussion of their research approaches led by the scientific committee and invited guests. This event is open to the public, and we warmly invite faculty, staff, and students to attend.
