Abstract

Working paper #104. This study examines how Canadian architecture schools are training the next generation of architects in regard to climate change. This study looks at the training of architects in the eleven schools of architecture in Canada whose programs have been accredited by the Canadian Architectural Certification Board, and how these programs deal with the issues of climate change in their curricula. It also looks, for international comparison, at a number of major non-Canadian architecture school programs recognized as substantially equivalent to those of the Canadian schools.
