Career Conversations: speed mentoring afternoon with RIAS Careers Studio and A&DS

Join RIAS Careers Studio and Architecture and Design Scotland (A&DS) for an inspiring afternoon of speed mentoring designed to connect students with professionals from across the architecture and built environment sector.

This engaging event will give students the opportunity to meet experienced practitioners through a series of structured, small-group mentoring conversations. Whether you're exploring career options, looking for advice on entering the profession, or curious about different pathways and specialisms, this event offers valuable insights from those working in the field today.

Each mentoring round will last 15 minutes, allowing students to meet multiple professionals and hear diverse perspectives on career development, education, practice, leadership, wellbeing and future opportunities within the sector.

Following the mentoring sessions, participants are invited to continue conversations during an informal networking session over refreshments.

A&DS:SpACE is a collaborative venue created by Architecture and Design Scotland and Space for Architecture, Carbon & Environment. Through exhibitions, events and public programming, it provides a platform for conversations about architecture, design, sustainability, placemaking and the future of Scotland's built environment.
