Architecture
Architects and landscape architects play a critical role in engaging with some of the world’s most complex issues—from climate change to urban density, social and economic diversity to cultural preservation. The School of Architecture’s undergraduate and graduate programs aim to furnish each student with a deep understanding of the field’s fundamentals while developing a holistic perspective of architecture’s vast scope and impact. Our graduates leave ready to tackle the evolving challenges of society and our physical environment.
“
Our School is focused on how architecture, landscape, and urban design negotiate the diverse concerns that are inherent to our urbanized context and ultimately shape how we live.
