Save the date: Euregional Architecture Prize 2024

The Euregional Architecture Prize (EAP) is awarded annually to the best graduation project of the five participating architecture faculties in the tri-national Meuse-Rhine Euroregion.

The participating faculties are from the RWTH and FH Aachen; the universities of Hasselt and Liège and the Academy of Architecture Maastricht. The award provides talented young designers with a platform to facilitate their entry into the professional field. In addition, it offers Euroregional architecture schools the opportunity to learn from each other and further develop the quality of their education.
