The AIA Higher Education Advisory Team (HEAT) is a volunteer team, with a mission to advise, share, and promote the issues, trends, and aspirations relevant to architectural education that will improve and inform the future of architecture. Every two years, seven (7) members are selected to represent the six US ACSA regions and include an appointed CCCAP representative to serve two-year calendar year terms (January-December).
Congratulations and thank you to all of our new members for applying and agreeing to volunteer your time to help the AIA further its connection to academia. Sincere thanks to our HEAT (2022-23) Emeritus members for your service and future input.
