The fellowship also includes a public lecture and exhibition in the spring.
For almost twenty-five years of full-time teaching and professional
practice, Doug Garofalo, FAIA, was at the forefront of introducing
advanced digital and conceptual models to architectural design Curriculum vitae with three references
UIC is one of the nation’s major urban public research universities. From this context, the School of Architecture maintains that the purpose of architecture is to anticipate, provoke, and challenge. Our students and faculty confront the unknown, imagine new worlds, and realize design propositions. Successful candidates will share these ambitions and global perspective.

In collaboration with small offices in New York and Cincinnati, Garofalo Architects realized the earliest significant digitally- informed project in the United States, the Korean Presbyterian Church of New York in Queens (1996-99), which augured not only a new style of contemporary architecture but perhaps more radically a new way of practicing architecture.
