    Reply to this    		 Of course, students can participate. Every time minimum 30% of the participants were students.
    Keep looking the news regarding UIA Congress... When the registration will be open for paper submission (1000 character abstract) on 1st October then you'll get the option there to set whether you are a student or an architect.
    Soon UIA will also declare a competition as well as usual. That competition will also have young architects and students section. So don't worry, keep you ready!
    The entry level (the level of participation if your paper is selected) for paper submission is as follows:
    1. Lecture at a main session and publication in Congress catalogue
    2. Lecture at a specialized session and publication in Congress catalogue
    3. No lecture session but publication in Congress catalogue
    4. Publication in internet
    5. No entry
    At least we should try for the 5th one... ha ha ha....! Although even if you are not a selected lecturer or competition winner anyone still can participate the event just paying the registration fees online (will be opened soon) or to respected Institute of Architects of the country before the event.
