The 2026 Peter & Linda Riguardi Travel Fellowship was a great success!

Students from all four programs at SPDC visited London, touring project sites and historic examples of built environment planning, design and construction.

This experiential learning opportunity is vital to preparing SPDC students for professional success as leaders and innovators in industry.
