Mission Statement
The Professional Practice Committee is a member committee of the New York Chapter of the American Institute of Architects.

The Committee's mission is to explore, through interactive dialogue, case and comparative studies and research strategies, the various practice issues arising from the professional practice of architecture; whether in a large-firm or small-firm environment. The Committee also strives to explore, on an ongoing basis, applicable ethical conundrums appearing in the 'grey areas' of practice.

The Committee is dedicated to furthering all aspects of architectural competence by providing an efficient forum to exchange and evaluate ideas and processes. Additionally, the Committee hopes to extend its influence to the numerous architectural schools in the metropolitan area, to provide a necessary bridge to the academic (and future professional) environment.
