Welcome to the Rio 2015 Culture and City blog site! This site serves as a home base for students while studying abroad in Rio de Janeiro to share sketches, pictures, thoughts and experiences. The Knowlton School of Architecture offers the study abroad through the Office of International Affairs at The Ohio State University which takes place over Spring Break 2015 from March 14-22, 2015. The study abroad includes a full semester course taught by Aimee Moore and Troy Malmstrom from the Knowlton School of Architecture for students participating in the experience. The 20 students that travelled ranged from freshman to graduate students, primarily from architecture, landscape architecture and urban planning. There were also students from civil and bio-medical engineering to health sciences to marketing rounding out a great diversity in breadth, experience, expertise and interest in the group. It was a fantastic trip and the students have many fond memories, analyses and impressions that they share in their blog posts. Enjoy the site and let me know if you have any questions regarding Knowlton Spring Break Study Abroad.
