The opening session of the conference was designed to enable participants to engage in a
healthy dialogue through knowledge. A series of presentations were made on past events
such as the 1999 Internship Summit
and 2002 Internship Summit
and recent surveys such as the
2005 Internship & Career Survey. A
highlight of this session was Internship: The Emerging Professionals' Perspective where the students,
interns and young architects were asked to share their perspectives on internship today.
|
The second session of the conference began with a series of presentations from an educator
and two practitioners innovation in the integration of education and practice. The group
then engaged in an extended discussion stimulated by fresh ideas for the architecture
profession. Working groups were encouraged to develop and perform skits about the
intern/supervisor relationship.
