AJ Student Prize 2025

The Architects’ Journal are inviting tutors at all ARB and RIBA-accredited architecture courses at UK-based schools to enter their students for the AJ Student Prize 2025. Schools are invited to submit a final year project from two students – one at undergraduate level and one at postgraduate level.

This year, we expect and encourage all entries to the Student Prize to address issues of sustainability: be that environmental, social, or both. Last year, we made the decision to incorporate the sustainability award category into the main awards to reflect this.

Entries received from each school will be published in the AJ’s annual student issue which comes out in September. A panel of distinguished judges will then decide on the winners of this year’s Student Prize for the best work in undergraduate and postgraduate award categories. These winners will be announced at a prize-giving event in October.

This free-to-enter prize is a great platform to celebrate and support the work of both architecture students and universities across the UK – as the new generation of architects emerges. AJ Student Prize 2024 is sponsored by Marley.

First entry deadline: 6 June 2025
