Nexutecture explores how design can strengthen relationships among people, places, institutions, and the living world. This scholarship extends that inquiry to the next generation, supporting students who understand both buildings and the broader communities and systems those buildings affect.
Seeded by The MXD Collaborative, Inc.
Help emerging architects complete their education — and put their ideas to work for communities. The fund's initial goal is to raise $15,000 annually for students pursuing a NAAB-accredited five-year professional architecture degree, including the B.Arch. and integrated M.Arch.
Support can be directed to a student attending one of over 50 NAAB-accredited schools of architecture.
A scholarship model that grows with achievement.
Awards increase as students complete each year of their education: $1,000 for the first year, $2,000 for the second, $3,000 for the third, $4,000 for the fourth, and $5,000 for the fifth. Together, the five awards total $15,000 — the basis of the annual fundraising goal.
Eligible students pursue an accredited five-year Bachelor of Architecture degree or the integrated five-year M.Arch degree (Hampton University and Howard University) with a minimum 3.0 GPA. Selection considers academic achievement, financial need, a vision for service, character, and the conceptual, polymathic reasoning and creative skills shown through a student's design portfolio.
The first milestone award for one first-year student.
The graduation award, released after verified completion of the B.Arch. with a 3.0 GPA or higher.
The full annual fund — one award at each milestone for five students.
