About this organization
Mission
Educating emerging generations about the impact of architecture and design on the environments in which they live.
About
Build San Francisco is an internship and mentoring program for San Francisco high school students centered on the design and construction of a project of significant civic importance. In the Fall of 2004, AFSF opened the Build San Francisco Institute, enabling San Francisco Unified School District high school students to join an experiential learning program in architecture and urban design. Offering classes and mentorships in the afternoon hours of the school day, the Build San Francisco Institute introduces students to the real world of urban planning and design, offering them a unique opportunity to become involved in the development of San Francisco. Adult mentors from the professional firms designing and building a major project work with individual high school students. The students take a one-semester course for credit. They meet with design professionals who serve as mentors in the workplace, learning the intricacies of architectural design and the construction process. The students are allowed to see every aspect of a major urban project and learn the complex issues and intense interdisciplinary collaboration surrounding the creation of the urban environment. In the Build/San Francisco Institute, the students experience the learning habits needed for the discovery, integration, application, and sharing of knowledge over a lifetime.
