Professor Peter Coffman is Carleton&#8217;s History and Theory of Architecture Supervisor and the President of the Society for the Study of Architecture in Canada, leading to natural partnerships between both. The program also works closely with Parks Canada, where the Registrar of Historic Places is a Carleton grad. Other upcoming partnerships include the City of Ottawa and Heritage Ottawa. Professor Coffman hopes these connections will develop into more formal cooperation which will provide further opportunities to students.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www6.carleton.ca\/discoverycentre\/ccms\/wp-content\/ccms-files\/hta-diefenbunker.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone  wp-image-1839\" title=\"History and Theory of Architecture students explore the Diefenbunker\" alt=\"history and theory of architecture students explore the Diefenbunker\" src=\"http:\/\/www6.carleton.ca\/discoverycentre\/ccms\/wp-content\/ccms-files\/hta-diefenbunker-400x267.jpg\" width=\"400\" height=\"267\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Professor Coffman shared his philosophy about the importance of hands-on learning, noting that &#8220;I always tell students that a great educations starts in the classroom, but doesn&#8217;t end there. It&#8217;s really important for students to go out and see what professionals in the field are doing. It&#8217;s also important for them to graduate with a network of contacts that goes beyond the walls of the campus. Perhaps even more fundamentally, gaining as much broad experience as possible should be what an undergraduate education is all about &#8211; it&#8217;s supposed to make your world a bigger place, a much bigger place.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>This philosophy has translated to the classroom as students enjoy the collaborative and interactive nature of the program.
