Mr Tszwai So

I joined the teaching staff of University of Cambridge Professional and Continuing Education's postgraduate apprenticeship in Architecture in 2024. This unique program prepares architects for the evolving challenges of the 21st-century professional landscape, offering an alternative route to traditional architectural qualifications at a world-leading university.

I am honoured to contribute to this transformative approach to architectural education under the leadership of Professor Brittain-Catlin. I bring to this role my experience as a practitioner and a deep commitment to nurturing innovative and adaptable architects equipped to navigate a rapidly changing world driven by algorithms.

I first studied architecture at the University of Hong Kong, earning a bachelor's degree, then completed a master's in Building History at the University of Cambridge. I qualified as an architect in 2007. I am a former committee member of the Foundation for Jewish Heritage. I have served on the juries of a number of award programmes, such as the RIBA awards, RIBA Eye Line Award, World Architecture Festival and AJ100 Building of the Year award. I also currently sit on the Harrow Council Design Review Panel.
