Send us Fan MailThe Conversation you are waiting for is finally here, an interview with Ar. Lok Kuang Wooi on Architecture Education focusing on the Design Thesis process with Naziaty Mohd Yaacob, Ph.D..Lok Wooi believes that Malaysian universities "don't really have that paradigm shift yet" and the main view we agreed on after deliberating and arguing on the Clubhouse audio platform and elsewhere, is how the design thesis in Malaysian universities could be better designed and implemented as an architecture course so that the students "really find a topic that they want ... and they (the students) are matched up with people outside of the university that will take them through from idea to until the final outcome".Listen to this conversation to find out the latest in terms of thoughts and criticism of how the Design Thesis course is created and applied in Malaysian schools of architecture.
