Erdman has taught architecture at UCLA for five years, teaching design studios in the core and advanced topics curriculum and conducting technology seminars focused on the development of new techniques in architectural design. Erdman coordinates his students' work in exhibitions internationally, including the Florence Festival for Architecture in Video and the Gray, Green and Brown Competition at the Museum of Contemporary Art. He recently received the Charles Moore Traveling Fellowship for his option studio, in which 14 students studied minimal surface geometries in several mosques in Istanbul, Turkey.
