On 7th June, the Future of Architecture Summit hosts the all-new Future Talent Awards, for the students of American University in Dubai.

There are six student award categories -

• The Sustainable Future Award
• Commitment to Community Award
• Urban Infrastructure Award
• Cultural Identity Award
• The Shape of the Future Award
• Tomorrow's World Award (for the overall winner)

Each category has been designed to assess the key contribution that a young architect can make to regional and global futures - and the Judges' assessments are based on the same criteria that would be applied to senior, advanced practiitioners.
