PhD chat

The possibility to conduct a research & design project as a PhD is realistic. If this is what suits me, then lets do it.

Committee:
- There is still time, but I have to talk to people, set up meetings etc.

Visit to Colonias: 
I must go to a colonia this semester. Weekday preferable. Visit Blanca and Aide.
Practicalitites:
- don't drive

  • liaise with Rachel, perhaps we could do research together by the border
  • start driving lessons!
- teaching M - W - F

  • find sub
  • set up a project for students
Research time in Colonias:
- need funding or job that would cover expenses (i.e. Lawyers without borders)
- it will be better to do get exposed to work on larger - geographically - scale as my research scale is city wide. (It would be more beneficial to work in Blanca's office than on a building site)
- work for an independent organization

  • Architects Without Broders
  • Habitat for Humanity
  • Community Resource Group

Community Resource Group: 
- regional NGO
- helping communities with hands - on and not handout :)  ooops
