INTRODUCTION

I attended the Liceo Scientifico "Leopardi" where I got my diploma in 2004. This school gave me a generic knowledge of different subjects, like Maths, languages and literature. After this I studied art for two years at the Università degli Studi di Padova. I liked it, but I understood that it wasn't really useful for me and my future. I started working as secretary in a small company but, after a year, I decided to continue my studies in architecture. I like architecture and the undergraduate program in Construction Management. It is really interesting and I hope to develop different skills through the academic programme, the construction site report, the apprenticeship and the thesis.

ACADEMIC PROGRAMME

3

I chose a three-year undergraduate degree program in Construction Management at Università Iuav di Venezia because I think this degree is very interesting.I like architecture and all the processes related with building a house.This course develops every phase of the project from design to construction.I'm in the third year now, and I've take interesting courses on:

Topography Architectural technology Cost estimating Architecture and urban design 1-2 Environmental technical physics Building construction 1-2 Working drawings 1-2 Business administration.

These courses are important and teach the different aspects of being an architect.I've learned about the economic and technical aspects of the project, design, the importance of a good investment, the use of different software for topography, all of which should prepare me for the world of work.

CONSTRUCTION SITE REPORT

The project that I'm going to study for my construction site report is a three-family house situated in via G.degli Ubaldini in Padua in the north-east of Italy. The client knows the architect because he designed his first house. The designer is Massimo Asci, who worked in collaboration with his team. They designed a two-storey house for three different families. Each one is composed of two floors. The first has a kitchen and the living room, the second has the bedroom and the bathroom.The construction has just begun. I've just started to collect all the documents for the project, and I'll have to go to the construction site every week to visit and take pictures of it, trying to understand and learn as much as I can from this experience. It should help me to understand the construction process.

APPRENTICESHIP

I'll start my apprenticeship In July. I'll work normal office hours from Monday to Friday. I'll train in Massimo Asci's architecture studio for a period of about two months in which I'll work 250 hours. I'll learn what it means to be an architect through practical experience.A tutor will help me plan, do site surveys and prepare expert cost estimating. I'll also collaborate with the technical office to get the necessary building documents, such as the building permit and the certificate of occupancy.I'll try to collaborate with architect Asci's team, being as independent as possible so as to be part of the studio and not just a student. My work will always be supervised by my tutor, architect Alessandra Simio.This experience will be important for me and my future. I hope it will be positive and increase my skills. I'll learn to deal with other professionals and the institutions that are involved in the world of the architect. I will also apply all my studies to a real project.

THESIS

I don't know precisely the subject of my thesis yet, nor who my advisor will be.However, I would like to work with architect Carlo Della Mura, professor of Construction Management, and I would like to analize analyze the restoration and requalification of a country house, situated in Padua. Its position is important because it's strategic, it is near the city but at the same time not too close. The area in which this house is situated has undergone many changes recently. The municipality has developed it and the next step will be the requalification of the house.It is very old, and is under the protection of the Italian Cultural Heritage. It is composed of two parts: the manor and the stable. The project is to readapt and renovate the building for housing.The ideais to convert the stable into a two-family house and the manor into apartments.My study will concern the project's design, its restoration, and how to increase the value of an old building.

CONCLUSION

I hope that this undergraduate programme will be helpful for me and for my career. I might start working immediately after graduation, or more likely, continue studying for a graduate degree. I like architecture and in-terior design. I have not decided yet. I would like to go to Milano or abro-ad. There are a lot of opportunities to consider after I've graduated.
