Work Experience 2024 - open for entries

We are offering work experience for up to 20 students in Years 11-13 from Monday 29 July - Friday 02 August, 10am-5pm.

What to expect

Monday

Visit our office, meet each other and your mentors. We’ll explain your project and tell you a bit about us before heading to King’s Cross and St Pancras for an architectural walking tour.

Tuesday - Thursday

Working from home, you’ll choose a fun design project to work on, learn basic drawing skills and what it means to be an architect. A typical day will be:

10am - 12pm: chat with your architect mentor (4 students to each architect) on Teams; design time

12pm - 1pm: a lecture on sustainability and a day in the life of an architect

1pm - 2pm: lunch break

2pm-5pm: design time

Friday

We’d love you to come here and present your design for 3-5 minutes - that may sound scary, but everyone is friendly and some students have even said it was their favourite part of the week!

If that sounds like your cup of tea, email Marie at mail@waltersandcohen.com for an application form.

The deadline for entries is 5pm on Friday 10 May.
