YACademy's Architecture for Exhibition course collects the most relevant international experience in the field.

The course offers three scholarships with full coverage of the enrolment cost for the most deserving students. It is also possible to participate in the courses remotely.

With a frequency of three days per week for a duration of two months, Architecture for Exhibition hosts several frontal teaching modules and numerous interventions by well-known professionals working at world-renowned companies, including SANAA, Zaha Hadid Architects, Herzog & de Meuron, David Chipperfield Architects, BIG (Bjarke Ingels Group) and Ateliers Jean Nouvel.

The course's workshop will be carried out in collaboration with David Chipperfield Architects Milano and will focus on the exhibition space of the Akhenaten Museum, one of the biggest and most influential museums in Egypt.

In addition, YACademy offers its students the opportunity to participate in the process of producing their own ideas.

Thus, the students will gain practical experience on construction sites and, above all, the authorship of projects built for excellent commissions, destined for a major media echo and capable of defining a turning point in their professional career.

To conclude the course, each student will carry out a period of collaboration with one of YACademy's partner firms.

Such collaboration will have a minimum duration of two months and guaranteed remuneration consistently with regulatory requirements.

Some of the professional players with expertise in relation to the course topic include SANAA, Emmanuelle Moureaux Architecture + Design, Herzog & de Meuron, David Chipperfield Architects and BIG.

Applications to this course have now closed.
