He retooled the school’s graduate education program and increased the school’s engagement with the city of South Bend. He also established the Richard H. Driehaus Prize, awarded annually to a living architect whose work embodies the highest ideals of classical architecture in contemporary society and creates a positive cultural, environmental and artistic impact.   Lykoudis is a member of the Congress for New Urbanism and the International Network for Traditional Building, Architecture and Urbanism. He served on the board of directors for the Institute of Classical Architecture and Art and frequently lectures at universities around the country and abroad and speaks to professional and civic organizations.   Prior to joining the Notre Dame faculty, he worked as a project designer and architect for firms in Florida, Greece, Connecticut and New York. He has directed his own practice since 1983 in Athens, in Stamford, Connecticut, and now in South Bend, Indiana.   A graduate of Cornell University, Lykoudis earned his Master of Architecture degree from the University of Illinois with a concentration in business.
