The time seems right for academia to realise that things are not working and it needs to change

Regarding Chris Wise鈥檚 article (22 February, page 26) - this is a timely challenge not just to engineering and architectural design professionals, but also the entire built environment sector. I鈥檓 hearing a growing undercurrent of dissatisfaction with the current educational model and we need voices like this to highlight the issue.

Chris hope for fireworks - so do I. The time seems right for academia to realise that things are not working and it needs to change. I鈥檓 on board.
