The ULI Gerald D. Hines Student Urban Design Competition is an ideas competition using a real site. This interdisciplinary problem-solving exercise offers students a chance to mix creativity with functionality. The site, to be announced in February, will be large scale and present complex challenges, needing practicable, innovative solutions that reflect responsible land use. The solutions are to be multifaceted, incorporating design, planning, market potential and feasibility, and development strategies. The submission to the competition will be a written report as well as a series of schematic drawings.

Phase 1: The Application Process involves putting the team together, providing ULI with the names and qualifications of all team members, and submitting an application for consideration. Because the number of participating teams will be limited, ULI reserves the right to disqualify teams or to limit the number allowed to participate in the competition (in accordance with the provisions described in the next section). All teams will be notified by E-mail no later than Friday, February 14, 2003, as to their participation status.

Phase 2: The Submission Process is the phase in which the team works together to respond to the urban design problem posed. Students will receive the project briefing materials on Friday morning, February 21, 2003. The project briefing materials will include a comprehensive problem statement, background information on the site, market information, any relevant existing design proposals, maps, etc. Teams will also be given a specific list of required presentation materials. All materials must be received at ULI headquarters by 5 p.m. e.s.t. on Tuesday, March 4, 2003. The jury will meet in mid-March and up to four finalist teams will be chosen. The finalists will be announced by Friday, March 21, 2003.

Phase 3: The Urban Design Forum is the final phase, involving a maximum of four finalist teams. From Friday, March 21, to Thursday, April 24, 2003, student finalist teams will have the opportunity to expand their original schemes and respond in more detail to the problem posed by the competition. Two members of each team will be brought to the city where the site is located, with expenses paid, and will have the opportunity to tour the site and meet with select individuals in order to revise and enhance their presentations. On Friday, April 25, 2003, the entire team will, at ULI’s expense, return to the site city and present its program to the jury as well as to invited guests, other students, and appropriate participants. That day will culminate in the announcement of the winner and the order of the finalists as well as include various prominent speakers who will discuss urban design and development issues.
