The Royal Institute of British Architects has been awarding the President’s Medals since the 1850s and the awards were established in their current format in 1984.

The aim of these prestigious awards is to promote excellence in the study of architecture, to reward talent and to encourage architectural debate worldwide.

Widely regarded as the best architectural education awards in the world, students aspire each year to be selected by their school to enter for the medals and for the opportunity for their work to be recognised and publicly exhibited.

Now that the winners are finally announced an exhibition takes place at

Venue: Gallery 1 & 2, RIBA, 66 Portland Place, London W1B

Enjoy an exhibition of award-winning student work, including the Bronze Medal for Part 1, the Silver Medal for Part 2 students and the Dissertation Medal, selected from submissions from over 240 invited Schools of Architecture from 50 countries. These awards are aimed at promoting excellence in the study of architecture, rewarding talent, and encouraging architectural debate world-wide.
