“It is clear that today's fluid movement of people and ideas necessitates new approaches towards the understanding of architecture and urbanization. I am excited that in the coming years the Wheelwright Fellowship will be able to have a significant impact on the intellectual projects of young architects and, in turn, on the future of architecture and the built environment.”
—Harvard GSD Dean Mohsen Mostafavi
As of 2013, eligibility has expanded to any architect who has graduated within the last 15 years from a professionally accredited architecture degree program.
The focus is on international research, requiring the winner of the Prize spend at least 6 months working out of their home country, and not in the United States.
