Architecture majors experience and investigate the central aspects of the field. The major provides an inclusive program offering opportunities to explore historical and contemporary relationships among physical, social, and cultural forms and environmental contexts.

There are two tracks to the architecture major: the first, while incorporating lectures, seminars, and scholarly research, is more strongly studio based and is recommended for the student who thinks she will continue to do graduate work in architecture or design; the second, while incorporating studio components, is geared toward the history and theory of architecture and is more strongly allied with the Art History department.

Students considering an Architecture major or minor should consult with the adviser before sophomore registration to develop the most appropriate sequence of studio and lecture courses. Those interested in graduate study in architecture should consult with the adviser in their junior year concerning their programs.

The Architecture program is a liberal arts major, not a professional degree program. It does not qualify students for a license in Architecture.

Students who wish to continue in graduate studies in Architecture for a professional degree are also advised to take two semesters (or comparable) of college level physics and calculus.
