2025-26 ACSA Academy for Public Scholarship on the Building Environment Cohort
Today, the Association of Collegiate Schools of Architecture (ACSA) announced the 2025-26 cohort of the Academy for Public Scholarship on the Built Environment. This year, twelve distinguished architecture faculty members have been selected to participate in this year’s program, which will focus on the timely and urgent theme of Housing Equity.
The Academy for Public Scholarship is designed to equip architecture faculty with the tools and training to engage broader audiences and bring academic knowledge into public discourse. Through a combination of virtual workshops, peer-to-peer exchange, and expert-led sessions, participants will strengthen their capacity to write, speak, and advocate as public scholars—translating their research into accessible, actionable contributions on issues that shape our cities and communities.
This is such a vital program, especially in today’s political climate. I'm excited to help administer this program in partnership with ACSA and my colleagues on the Research & Scholarship Committee, and I look forward to learning alongside this outstanding group of scholars over the coming year!
