Assistant professor of architecture Deborah Richards was recently awarded the 2019-2020 Division of Architecture Gibbs Research Fellowship (a three year title and award) for her current and future computational design research. Richards will allocate the funds towards continued research in the intersection of computational design and community engagement: digital placemaking.
Dr. Stephanie Pilat initiated this prestigious recognition during the 2018-2019 academic year. The fellowship will annually recognize a new recipient for excellence in research and scholarly activity. Richards joins last year’s recipient, associate professor Daniel Butko who is also serving as Gibbs Research Fellow.
The Christopher C. Gibbs College of Architecture announces John Harris as Associate Dean for Research ad interim, effective Aug. 25, 2026, until the permanent position is filled.
Gibbs College is pleased to announce the 2026 Gibbs College Faculty & Staff Awards recipients. These individuals were recognized by Dean Butzer during the Gibbs College Back to School Meeting and will be honored during the Celebration Banquet in October. They were nominated by their colleagues via an open nomination process.
Telesis, the Gibbs College of Architecture’s student journal, has been awarded a grant from the Graham Foundation for Advanced Studies in the Fine Arts to support its next two issues, “Pause” (Volume IX) and “React” (Volume X).
