LSBU Acoustics students visit world famous School of Architecture

LSBU Acoustics postgraduate students and Architecture students from the famous Architectural Association (AA) in London, have recently attended together a series of  workshops, seminars and tours organised at both institutions. The activities took place on 20^th and 27th Feb 2020 and aimed at students to raise their awareness of each others’ disciplines,  promote collaboration and encourage exchange of knowledge, perspectives,  and insights relevant in the architectural design process. The educational exercise has been facilitated by Dr Luis Gomez-Agustina and by former LSBU MSc Acoustics student and academic staff at AA, Laura de Azcarate. Early evaluation among students who took part has shown that  the  educational exercise has been  a clear success. Further developments and refinements are planned for the next academic year. Please watch this space
