The University of Western Sydney (UWS) will be hosting a national Students for Sustainability (S4S) conference for students in September, 2015.

The S4S conference will provide students with the opportunities to network with peers and industry professionals. The conference theme, "HOPE for the future", will explore the social and environmental impacts of our society and focus on empowering our youth with knowledge and skills to lead into an uncertain future.

The conference streams will focus on food, ethics and environment with the underpinning notions of sustainability, design and innovation.

S4S differs from other student-led conferences as it is a multi-disciplinary conference for students with the aim to provide and improve communication and presentation skills in a professional and supportive environment.

The University of Melbourne Alumni Association in Malaysia (UMAAMY) is offering up to three AUD $2,000 bursaries to Malaysian students undertaking degrees at any school or faculty of the University of Melbourne (both undergraduate and postgraduate).

The awards are the result of gifts from two Malaysian alumni. They recognise that the cost of living has escalated for international students in Melbourne, and the intention is to alleviate the financial burden of Malaysian students in need.

Date: 5 June 2015
Time: 9.00am - 4.30pm
Venue: Singapore Theatre, MSD Building

Abstract due date: 17 April 2015
Audience registration due date: 31 May 2015

The disciplines of architecture and education are witnessing a burgeoning interest in designing learning environments for contemporary education. There is growing evidence that designers and teachers are working closer than ever before to build spaces to meet the needs of 21st century learners. But are these spaces working as intended?

The Evaluating 21st Century Learning Environments Linkage Project team, in association with the University of Melbourne’s Learning Environments Applied Research Network, invite current or recent research higher degree students to submit papers for the 2015 Terrains International RHD Symposium.

Dates: 29 June to 12 July, 2015 (Monday to Friday)

Traditions: 'Real', Hyper & Virtual is a once-off intensive elective subject to be taught by visiting Professor Nezar AlSayyad from University California, Berkeley.

The seminar aims to bring together students who have an interest in the concept of “tradition”. It is designed to give a detailed overview of the discussion of tradition and its particular relation and intersection with the built environment.

Starting with more conservative approaches regarding the concept of traditional environments, variously framed as vernacular, indigenous or organic, this course will move into more critical investigations of the use of tradition in architecture and urbanism.

In association with the University of Nanjing, MSD students have an extraordinary opportunity to complete two Masters degrees in just two years of full-time study.

Successful applicants will complete their first semester at the University of Melbourne, followed by a year of study at Nanjing (September – June) and then return to Melbourne for their final semester.

Applicants must be newly enrolled in the Master of Architecture, have at least a basic understanding of Mandarin, and must not hold Chinese citizenship. Applications close on Friday 8 May 2015.

For more information, please contact Dani Lambert.
