Overview

During Seminar Week, students will travel to PORT OF SPAIN as an integral part of the EMERGING & SUSTAINABLE CITIES design studio.  This trip will be an opportunity to advance research and understand the city and the site; it will be an opportunity to expand analysis, challenge conventional understandings, and test conceptual prototypes.  This week will not only serve as a vital step in the conceptual development of the project theses, but also as a critical study of the architecture, urbanism, culture, social exchange, and mobility in Port of Spain.
