October 9, 2017 By Clement Lau

Dissertation - decorativeWhat is a scholar-practitioner in urban planning?  And what does it take to become one?  Essentially, scholar-practitioners bridge the gap between academia and the real world, combining scholarly research with practical application of theories and knowledge to solve complex problems in our profession.  [Read more…] about Becoming a Scholar-Practitioner in Urban Planning

Looking Ahead to 2016: Events for Planners

November 24, 2015 By Clement Lau

2016 Calendar planning and architecture conferencesAs the year winds down, I think this is a good time to look ahead to 2016.  Specifically, I would like to discuss some events that planners, architects, and landscape architects can look forward to in the new year.  For those of you who follow my writing, you must know by now that I am a big fan of conferences.  As I explained in Rest for the Weary Planner, I see conferences as opportunities to learn, grow, network, and be encouraged.  I always return to work from conferences feeling refreshed and more prepared to take on the work that awaits me.  In 2015, I was fortunate to be able to attend and present at the APA National Conference in Seattle (read this article for a summary).  Without further ado, here are ten conferences and meetings that may be of interest to those of us in the fields of planning, architecture, and landscape architecture: [Read more…] about Looking Ahead to 2016: Events for Planners

Looking Ahead to 2015: Events for Planners

December 22, 2014 By Clement Lau

2015 CalendarAs the year winds down, I think this is a good time to reflect on the happenings of 2014 and look ahead to 2015.  Since I have already shared my reflections (see What is this Planner Thankful For?), I want to take some time now to talk about some events that planners, architects, and landscape architects can look forward to in the new year.  For those of you who follow my writing, you know that I am a big fan of conferences.  As I explained in Rest for the Weary Planner, I see conferences as opportunities to learn, grow, network, and be encouraged.  I always return to work from conferences feeling refreshed and more prepared to take on the work that awaits me.  In 2014, I was fortunate to be able to attend four events or conferences that contributed to my professional and personal growth: UCLA Extension Land Use Law & Planning Conference, Frederick Law Olmsted Jr: A Vision for the American West, National Outdoor Recreation Conference, and APA California Conference.  Without further ado, here are ten conferences and meetings that may be of interest to those in the fields of planning, architecture, and landscape architecture: [Read more…] about Looking Ahead to 2015: Events for Planners
