At Salem, Nour explored the power of design through hands-on learning, creativity, and a global experience studying abroad in Sydney, Australia. From international experiences to deep academic exploration, Nour’s time at Salem helped shape the designer and future architect she is today.

Through research and creative projects, Nour discovered a love for biophilic design—an approach that connects people and nature through design. This fall, Nour will take the next step in her creative journey by beginning a three-year Master of Architecture program at the University of North Carolina in Charlotte.

 “I see architecture as the next chapter in my design story—one built on curiosity, creativity, and growth.” —Nour El-Ibrahim

Salem College celebrates Nour’s achievements and looks forward to the mark she’ll make in the world of architecture.
