On April 18, 2025, the Christopher C. Gibbs College of Architecture hosted its annual Graduate Student Showcase, a celebration of research, design innovation, and creative exploration across all graduate programs within the College. The event transformed Gould Hall into a vibrant exhibition of ideas where students shared their work with faculty, peers, and the broader community.
A total of 26 graduate students participated to share their research and creative work from programs across the college, including Architecture, Construction Science, Interior Design, Landscape Architecture, Regional & City Planning, and Planning, Design & Construction. Each presentation reflected the depth and diversity of graduate scholarship at GCA and highlighted the students’ creativity, critical thinking, and commitment to addressing real-world issues through design and research.
As part of the event, a panel of faculty judges selected the following winners based on presentation clarity, research innovations, and impacts of their work.
Congratulations to all the participants and awardees for making this year’s showcase a meaningful and inspiring event. We look forward to seeing how their work continues to shape the future of the built environment!
