THEMES | TEMAS
• Professional Education for International Practice in Architecture
• International Accreditation

In the international threshold city of Miami, Florida, Bienal Miami + Beach 2009 invites
Deans of Architecture from across the Americas to take part in a unique conversation
on architecture education and global practice. We propose to advance vigorous
discussion on a range of topics: Professional design curricula; opportunities for
research and collaboration in an international context; the preparation of students for
global practice; and international models for accreditation.

In advance of the meeting we invite conference participants to contribute representative
examples of the work of their programs to an exhibition centered on design
education in the Americas. Presentations and a roundtable discussion will introduce
attendees to the range of work produced by professional design programs in our
hemisphere. Bienal Miami + Beach will publish proceedings of the meeting including
illustrations of all the exhibited work.
