Brockhoft Receives Scholarship

Christopher Brockhoft, son of Mike and Kris Brockhoft of Winner and grandson of June Nelson of Winner and Jo Brockhoft of Sioux Falls, was recently awarded the Center for Architecture Design Scholarship by the American Institute of Architects. This scholarship is awarded to one architecture student in the United States each year; selection is based on the student’s academic record, an architecture portfolio of the student’s work, and recommendations from professors and the college’s dean.

Brockhoft lives in New York City and is currently pursuing his Master of Architecture at Columbia University and completed his Bachelor of Science in Design at the University of Nebraska-Lincoln.

During his studies at Columbia University, Brockhoft has completed public housing research in Berlin, Germany, and worked on the design of hospitals and medical campuses in the United Arab Emirates. Most recently, Brockhoft designed proposals for a research institute in Atlantic City, NJ, and a mixed-income housing complex in New York City. Brockhoft will complete his graduate studies at Columbia in May of 2017.
