THE UNIVERSITY OF MINNESOTA COLLEGE OF DESIGN scholarship committee has chosen Yun Koo as the SPQR Fellow for 2015. Yun is from Seoul, South Korea. She was selected from nine applicants and writes “I’m in third year of school, first year in BS program, taking studio02 this semester. At the U, until last year, freshman was a pre-arch student, sophomore in BDA and BS is started from third year and 4 semesters of studio until senior year. But from last year, school changed the curriculum that can apply BS degree from their sophomore year.”
Here is the written part of her application about “The importance of drawing as way to investigate architecture and urban space” and “Why you wish to study in Rome and what you hope to achieve through your experience there.”
