Fall 2014 seminar: M.Arch. candidate, architecture
Anamika Goyal received her B.S. in biology from Duke University in 2011, and is currently working towards her master of architecture at Cornell University. Her interests include public interest design and studying issues of urbanism in Africa and Asia. She has experience with public installation art, with a focus in metals and mosaic tile. Most recently, she completed an internship in Sierra Leone looking at education and its relationship to other urban systems. From her background in the medical sciences, Goyal brings an interest in the intersection of networks to create larger systems. She uses her understanding of protein biology to better understand the relationships between urban, political, and economic systems across the globe. Her medical background has also put the user experience at the forefront of her design process. She is interested in combining this with more historical knowledge and design projects in new, sometimes challenging contexts to continue studying global systems and issues of urbanism at various scales.
