At the conclusion of every spring semester, FIU’s Department of Architecture hosts Master Project Juries for graduate students on their final term. These juries mark a completion of an incredible feat that consists of long hours, studio reviews, pinups and dedication.

This year, the Class of 2017’s Master Project Juries took place at FIU’s Miami Beach Urban Studios (MBUS) on April 21. Fifteen graduate students received awards for excellence in design and best thesis presentations.

The Master’s Projects focused on a wide range of creative research topics including urban development and sustainability. Assigned juries consisted of department faculty and invited industry professionals from local and international architectural design firms.
