A five-year, NAAB-accredited professional degree, the B.Arch. curriculum is centered on a studio sequence of increasing complexity. In addition to design, the courses include architectural history and theory, building technologies, structures, design communication, and professional practice as well as a range of courses beyond architecture that fill out a well-rounded undergraduate education. While always envisioning the future, architects must also be committed to engaging reality. In our extensive fabrication workshop, students learn to handle materials, explore structural systems, and refine building details. Equally, our research and design topics put students in direct contact with the realities of urbanism in Chicago and throughout the world.
