The program centered on the firm’s Measurable Impact work in our Research Institute with a focus on Social and Climate Justice. Since its inception, we have run three cohorts of the program, to impact approximately 100 students, bringing 1/3 of the Summer Fellows into the firm for full-tme opportunities.In 2021, we launched the Student Design Charrette, which offers funding to the HBCU-accredited architecture programs and provides mentorship to students through weekly engagement.
