Majed A Alghamedei's Education

Southern California Institute of Architecture

Master of Architecture (M.Arch.)Built Environment and Human Needs

2013 – 2015 (expected)

Southern California Institute of Architecture is a place where I can meet my professional and academic goals. First, the philosophy that “Architects create the built environment”, a concept of synthesizing human needs, environment settings, and building technologies, is a principle that matched my vision about architecture and reflect my philosophy of the relationship between human needs and the environment. Second, the Architecture’s program is accredited by the National Architectural Accrediting Board; that is significant for King Saud University, which sponsors my scholarship and requires an accredited program, and for my future professional career. Third, SCI’s campus is not centralized; more importantly, it is integrated with the community, which reflects my philosophy in having a symbiosis relation between the human needs and environment.
