We offer the fellowships as opportunities for students to enhance and broaden their academic experience through independent travel and research, and immersion in our process & working environment.

KIANA HOSSEINI– 2015 DMSAS TRAVEL FELLOW – YALE UNIVERSITY - OTTOMAN AND MOORISH ISLAMIC ARCHITECTURE STUDIOS Our entire staff, from Principals to Designers, strives to give back to their respective alma maters and local architectural schools by remaining engaged in running design studios, attending studio critiques and sitting on various University governance boards. YALE UNIVERSITY During the Fall 2008 semester, David Schwarz served as the Davenport Visiting Professor at the Yale School of Architecture. Forty years after Robert Venturi, Denise Scott Brown, and Steven Izenour took a group of Yale students to the Las Vegas Strip to ask “what can the rest of the world learn from Las Vegas?”, David took a group of Yale students back to the Strip to ask “what can Las Vegas learn from the rest of the world?” UNIVERSITY OF NOTRE DAME In 2010, David began teaching a fifth-year design studio at Notre Dame. Like the 2008 Yale School of Architecture studio, the Notre Dame students worked on a master plan and building design for the Harrah's center-Strip Las Vegas campus. Notre Dame's focus on traditional architecture might seem at odds with the Strip's glitzy buildings and spectacles, but the school's focus on historic building and planning suggests the perfect balm to transition the Strip from its past automobile-centric planning into a pedestrian friendly place. In the Fall of 2006, Principals Craig Williams and Sean Nohelty guest-lectured on the process and intricacies of designing performing arts facilities, with a particular focus on the (then) recently completed Schermerhorn Symphony Center. THE CATHOLIC UNIVERSITY OF AMERICA President Gregory Hoss currently serves on The Catholic University of America School of Architecture & Urban Planning's Executive Development Board. Gregory also regularly serves as a visiting critic for design studios and thesis presentations. Fellow Principal Craig Williams also served as a visiting critic for a number of thesis presentations. UNIVERSITY OF MIAMI Principal Michael Swartz has served as a studio and thesis critic at the University of Miami on numerous occasions, mostly recently in in the Spring of 2014 as a visiting critic for Professor Joanna Lombard. 2021 David M.
