Programme overview

Architecture is a combination of artistic ideals, cultural forces, and physical facts. Our studio-based curriculum provides a learning environment that cultivates vigorous dialogue and debate, intellectual discipline, and a self-motivated search for architectural values. The pedagogical goal of the architecture program is to develop students who are creatively independent, enterprising, and inventive, who have the ability to order and structure intellectual difficulties, and the skills, judgment, and desire to make lasting contributions to society. The five-year, professional degree program in architecture is accredited by the National Architectural Accreditation Board.
