Professor Soumyen Bandyopadhyay BArch, MArch, PhD

Sir James Stirling Chair in Architecture Architecture

Teaching

My pedagogical interests extend from my key research focus (cultural topography) and my belief that LSA, given its rich history, is exceedingly well placed to impart a globally relevant education for the 21st century. I lecture in history and theory of Architecture and teach architectural and urban design at both undergraduate and postgraduate levels. More recently I have taught design at MArch (RIBA Part 2, Year 5 Design Thesis), where I have been interested in the methods and approaches of intervening within historic contexts. I supervise doctoral and postdoctoral research with a focus on the Middle East, South Asia and North Africa.
