Nine of the department’s permanent and affiliate faculty are now AIA Fellows. In addition, three UW Architecture alumni were elevated to Fellowship: Samuel Batchelor, designLab Architects in Boston (M.Arch, 2004); Douglas Ito, SMR Architects (BA Architecture, 1992); and Robert Misel, The Miller Hull Partnership LLP (BA Architecture, 1989).
