They apply this knowledge to whatever community is the focus of the Annual Design Charrette, creating a strategy that can enable input from the many different constituents of the charrette, including city officials, organizational representatives, community activists, and youth.

Spring Quarter

The Annual Design Charrette
 
During the first week of the quarter, 50-60 students, faculty, and practitioners from various disciplines work with a client group to develop alternative proposals for an urban design problem. This service-learning experience begins with stakeholder presentations, a distinguished public lecture, and a field trip; it culminates with an interactive public presentation in the community. Students work in interdisciplinary teams led by academics and practitioners from the local and national design community, and receive hands-on input from stakeholders. Over the years many positive outcomes have resulted from the charrette, including consultants hired to further develop ideas, built projects, publications, and exhibitions.
