A Brac University Dean Reappointed as Visiting Professor at Harvard GSD

Brac University’s School of Architecture and Design (SoAD) proudly announces the reappointment of its Dean Fuad Hassan Mallick as a visiting faculty in Urban Planning and Design at Harvard University’s Graduate School of Design (GSD).

In Fall 2023, Mallick led a studio course at GSD titled Permanence in Transition, focusing on the Rohingya refugee camps in Bangladesh. As part of the course, Harvard students visited the camps in October 2023, gaining firsthand insights that informed their design projects. Building on this impactful work, his Spring 2025 studio will explore informal settlements in Dhaka, addressing critical urban challenges through design and planning.

Beyond his teaching contributions, Mallick delivered a lecture at Harvard, Contemporary Architecture in Bangladesh: Sources and the Way Beyond, moderated by Professor Rahul Mehrotra. In this session, he provided valuable insights into the evolution of modern architecture in Bangladesh and its future trajectory.

SoAD, Brac University extends its heartfelt congratulations to Mallick on this distinguished recognition. His reappointment reflects his global impact in architecture and urban design and highlights the growing prominence of Bangladesh’s architectural education on the world stage.
