The Institute for Computational Design and Construction (ICD) is dedicated to the teaching and research of computational design and computer-aided manufacturing processes in architecture. The ICD’s goal is to prepare students for the continuing advancement of computational processes in architecture, as they merge the fields of design, engineering, planning and construction. The interrelation of such topics is exposed as both a technical and intellectual venture of formal, spatial, constructional and ecological potentials. Through teaching, the ICD establishes a practical foundation in the fundamentals of parametric and algorithmic design strategies. This provides a platform for further exploration into the integrative use of computational processes in architectural design, with a particular focus on integrative methods for the generation, simulation and evaluation of comprehensive information-based and performance oriented models. There are two primary research fields at the ICD: the theoretical and practical development of generative computational design processes, and the integral use of computer-controlled manufacturing processes with a particular focus on robotic fabrication. These topics are examined through the development of computational methods which balance the reciprocities of form, material, structure and environment, and integrate technological advancements in manufacturing for the production of performative material and building systems.

On 9 February 2021, the Institute for European Studies (VUB) and Vesalius College have launched an alliance under the name of the Brussels School of Governance. As a result, the content on this webpage is no longer updated from that date onwards. For the latest updates about the Brussels School of Governance, please visit: https://brussels-school.be ------------------------------- The Institute for European Studies (IES) at the Vrije Universiteit Brussel (VUB) is an academic Jean Monnet Centre of Excellence and a policy think tank that focuses on the European Union in an international setting. The Institute advances academic education and research in various disciplines, and provides services to policy-makers, scholars, stakeholders and the general public. While promoting European Studies in general, the IES specifically explores EU institutions, policies and law within the context of globalization and global governance, including a focus on the EU in international affairs and institutions. The disciplines applied at the IES include law, social/political sciences, economics and communication sciences, and the Institute’s activities focus on the various ways in which institutions, law and politics intersect with each other in the EU, its member states and at the international level.

Our mission is to equip teachers and teaching parents with methods and materials which will aid them in training their students to become confident and competent communicators and thinkers. Using the four language arts—listening, speaking, reading, and writing—IEW methods have been proven to be effective for students of all ages and levels of ability, including those who are gifted, have special needs, or are English language learners.

The Institute for Expanded Research (IER) supports artist-led inquiry, activates non-traditional sites and resources for the production and presentation of contemporary art, and provides research and organizing services across sectors. An artist project and research initiative, IER engages specific sites, topics, and people as a point of departure to explore the potential for dialogue and collaboration. IER invites artists, researchers, and other practitioners to share ideas, strategies, skills, and creative work with the ultimate aim of exploring the role artists play in society by giving proximity to their thinking and working processes.

The Institute for Futures Studies is an independent research foundation for interdisciplinary research on issues that are of great importance for how we shape our future society. Our current research program “Which future? Challenges and choices for the 21st century” comprises five overlapping themes. They are all interdisciplinary and involves researchers from several disciplines, including philosophy, political science, sociology, law, computer science, economics and demographics. The intention is to produce policy-relevant results by combining theoretical ideas with empirically oriented research. The themes are "Our responsibility towards future generations"​, "Democracy in the 21st century"​, "New technologies and the future of humanity"​, "Discrimination, sexism and racism"​ and "Equality"​.

THE INSTITUTE STORY: In late 2004, after many years in private practice specializing in the social and emotional development of girls, Dr. Melissa Johnson launched the Institute for Girls’ Development. Today, the Institute has expanded to a team of therapists with a vast variety of specializations. We are culturally, linguistically, and theoretically diverse professionals who share vision, passion, and varied expertise in delivering our clinical, educational, assessment, and training programs. SERVICES OFFERED: Our individual, group, and family psychotherapy services combine with our empowerment-based educational workshops for girls, teens and parents, allowing us to serve hundreds of girls each year and their families. Parents, grandparents, and other kin are involved at the Institute through our workshops, therapy, and skills groups. While most of our clients come from the San Gabriel Valley region, we have families who travel from as far as Claremont and Santa Clarita for the unique opportunities here. TRAINING OFFERED: Our most recent program launch is our Training Institute. Our Training Institute is a part of our initiative to share expertise with fellow professionals in mental health, education, and organizations serving girls and women. In creating this community for learning, growth, and diversity, we hope to challenge ourselves and others to think deeply, creatively, empirically and to act boldly. Our training model incorporates what we call experiential and embodied learning, drawing on strength-based and mindfulness approaches in a relational context. Trainings and consultations are available for mental health professionals, educators, and community program providers throughout the country. It is with great gratitude that we do this work and share this story. We are indebted to so many who have supported our vision and been our gracious teachers.
