CAF Giving Hoffmann Scholarship

The Connecticut Architecture Foundation (CAF), in partnership with Hoffmann Architects + Engineers, a Connecticut-based architecture and engineering firm specializing in building exteriors, is pleased to offer this scholarship to students seeking degrees in architecture or engineering.

Founded in 1977 by John J. Hoffmann, FAIA, who immigrated to the United States in the 1950s as a Hungarian refugee, Hoffmann Architects + Engineers is committed to advancing opportunities in the field of design. From its beginnings as a sole proprietorship launched by an immigrant who arrived in the country speaking little English, the firm has grown to encompass dozens of employees with the privilege of contributing to the preservation of landmarks of national and cultural significance, including the United States Capitol, the Chrysler Building, Rockefeller Center, and the Smithsonian Institution.

The Hoffmann Scholarship is open to students enrolled full-time in an accredited architecture or engineering program who are residents or full-time college students in one of the nine Mid-Atlantic and New England states and the District of Columbia that form the core of Hoffmann’s practice. As specialists in the rehabilitation of building exteriors, Hoffmann Architects + Engineers gives preference to those applicants intending to pursue a career in building enclosure restoration.
