Mariana Esponda, along with a number of undergraduate and graduate students, have also created a video outlining the amazing features of the (BAS) Conservation & Sustainability stream. In the video, the C&S stream is described as a program which teaches students how to adapt historical constructions with sustainable uses. Students will learn how to deal with existing buildings in a constantly changing context and will be able to contribute to a sustainable future through learning how to address the technical, theoretical and creative aspects of architecture. The videos also feature student testimonials about their experiences performing heritage research in places such as Mexico, Myanmar, Barcelona and Peru. As well as these travel opportunities, prospective students will also get to learn from world-class faculty such as Lyette Fortin, Natalia Escobar-Castrillion, Mario Santana-Quintero, Susan Ross and Steve Fai.
