Advanced Research in Architecture Today ｜2019 ETH-SEU PhD Workshop and Form

Workshop and Forum Rationale：

Since 1980s, ETH (Swiss Federal Institute of Technology) and SEU (Southeast University) have been working in close collaboration on architectural education. The international exchanges have been fruitful over recent decades, guiding fundamental changes in architectural pedagogies in these two institutions and others in Europe and Asia.

In the Spring of 2019, ETH and SEU will initiate an annual international workshop and forum to enhance their history of exchange and collaboration, focusing in particular on current student research at the Ph.D. level. The first workshop will be in Nanjing, the second in Zurich, and those to follow in each city in turn. The first is scheduled to be a 4-day event in April and May.

The workshop is designed to be a platform primarily for young scholars, particularly doctoral students and postdocs, from ETH and SEU, as well as a few other, selected universities. The primary aim is for students to present and exchange their ideas and research. In addition to introducing their current research, internationally renowned scholars and architects will comment on the student presentations and guide the research of the coming generation of scholars.

交流论坛主旨：

瑞士苏黎世联邦理工学院与东南大学在建筑教育领域的紧密合作始于上世纪80年代。几十年来，两校建筑学院之间的交流成果丰硕，实质性地推动了建筑学教育根本性的变革，并在欧洲和亚洲的建筑院校中产生了广泛的积极影响。

为了延续两校交流合作的传统，聚焦博士研究的前沿，瑞士苏黎世联邦理工学院与东南大学的年度交流论坛将于2019年春季启动。首次交流论坛设在南京，次年将设在苏黎世，并计划在南京、苏黎世两地交替举办系列论坛。首次论坛的日期为2019年4月30日至5月1日。

系列论坛将成为一个重要的学术平台，为两校及其他机构的青年学者（尤其是博士生和博士后）提供交流机会。论坛的首要目标是让青年学者们充分探讨学术、交流思想，此外，国际知名学者和建筑师将出席交流论坛，一方面介绍他们最新的研究进展，另一方面给青年一代的学者以引导、评价。
