Your New Family

Arcsoc is the University of Cambridge Architecture Society, led by students of the BA Tripos in Architecture. We are an entirely student-run initiative, whose eff orts each year culminate in our annual exhibition held in London.

As you will soon fi nd out, there are very few architects in the University compared to other subjects. This means whilst there may only be two or three of you in each college, the architects soon become very good friends. With the various trips abroad over your time here and the collaborative projects you will work on, both Arcsoc and the architects will hopefully become your new family.

Make sure you take the time to get involved in everything we do and you’re bound to enjoy it. We may work hard, but we party harder!

ARCSOC

Everything Arcsoc puts on is to benefi t the architects, since it is run by the architects. However, it is us running it, that means when we are preparing for events, all to raise money for the exhibition, we have the potential of an 120 strong workforce, if everyone participates. The more everyone puts in, the more we get out, and the bigger and better our fi nal exhibition will be. So get involved at every stage and you’ll enjoy yourself even more when everything comes together!

Exhibition

The Cambridge Architecture students run their own summer architecture exhibition under the patronage of Arcsoc. It’s a chance for you to share your work with the specialised public as well with your friends and relatives. It’s a beautiful environment to interact with relatives and professional architects and refl ect on your year’s work. We encourage all students to participate in this special event. It’s very rewarding, and great fun working alongside friends in a relaxed atmosphere in the break.
