Overview

As one of the leaders and most avid supporters of the research and academic community, IEREK has always endeavored to develop and enrich innovative production. Constantly advocating for forward thinking became our modus operandi.

Because of this driving passion, we've hosted many successful summer schools where participants were able to widen their horizons and feed their love of their craft using real life application and concentrated, global, expert knowledge. We've hosted schools abroad in such locations as the culturally rich Italy and the diverse United Kingdom, where our future architects received an enriching and engaging learning experience on subjects such as "Advanced Urban Planning and Architectural Design" where they saw a real-life case study on “Vela di Calatrava; Sports City Complex”, as "Working Sustainably towards London 2020 (Smart cities, Sustainable Energy and Green IT)", and as "Dealing with the impact of Cyber Security, Big Data and Digitisation on businesses"; all while enjoying the sights and tastes of a world different from their own.

Seeing the students have this breakthrough experience has only proved the ever-so talked of benefits of studying abroad. It has taught us what one could gain from investing in themselves. Studying overseas has many fantastic benefits, from helping you find a good job to improving your social life. A few of these benefits we've compiled here.

Finally, since there is never an end to the supply of lovers of learning, and with the countless benefits these opportunities seem to always provide, we're officially reopening our Study Abroad services to the public, so to not deprive anyone from such a journey.

Instructors

Hocine Bougdah

Research and Education Consultant, IERS-UK / Visiting Lecturer, University of Westminster, London, UK.

Dr Hocine Bougdah is a reader and subject area leader for Technology and the Environment in the School of Architecture. He has overall responsibility for the curriculum design, delivery and assessment of the Architectural Technology subject specialism in the school at both undergraduate and post-graduate levels. He is also involved in research through the supervision of a number of researchers (currently 6) working on topics aligned with his research interests. Dr Bougdah’s teaching and research interests are focused on the technological, ecological and human aspects of architectural design. His approach to teaching “Technology” is to use it as a design generator/enabler rather than an “add-on” technical resolution to a design proposal. His research interests cover topics such as sustainable design, innovative low tech/low energy/low impact buildings, spatial experience of users and issues of culture, urbanisation and globalisation. Alongside his academic role, he runs a design/consultancy practice.
