Размер премии – 100 000 долларов США. Претендовать на премию 2024 года могут дипломированные архитекторы, получившие профессиональное образование до февраля 2009 года. Соискатель должен предоставить резюме, портфолио и письменное описание предлагаемого исследовательского проекта. Премия доступна только индивидуальным участникам, командные заявки не рассматриваются.
The Wheelwright Prize is dedicated to advancing original architectural research that shows potential to make a significant impact on architectural discourse. We seek individual applicants who are accomplished but emerging, who are resourceful and risk-taking, and who can make the most of this extraordinary opportunity to advance a research project that will have a significant impact on his or her own professional development, and on the discipline of architecture as a whole.
The winner of the Wheelwright Prize will receive:
$100,000 prize to support the proposed research project
Invitation to lecture at Harvard GSD
Possibility to publish research in a Harvard GSD publication
Applicant must have graduated from a professionally accredited architecture degree program in the past 15 years. (For the 2024 cycle: Graduates prior to February 2009 are ineligible.) Holders of multiple degrees may apply, provided they received their professional degrees between February 2009 and February 2024.
Applicants need not be registered or licensed. Applicants may not have received the Arthur Wheelwright Traveling Fellowship previously. Winners of the Wheelwright Prize may not hold other fellowships concurrently.
The Wheelwright Prize is available to individual entrants only; teams or firms will not be considered.
