HKDI is committed to expanding its international partnership with renowned design institutions in North America to facilitate academic exchange. In December 2019, a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) was signed between HKDI and Southern California Institute of Architecture (SCI-Arc), after the visit by Director of SCI-Arc, Hernan Diaz Alonso, who conducted a master lecture at HKDI in September 2019. SCI-Arc is ranked by DesignIntelligence as the one of the top 10 architecture and design institutions in the US with the best graduate and undergraduate programs in 2019. The partnership is expected to benefit faculty members as well as students of both Institutions.
