The undergraduate architecture program consists of an intensive regimen of architecture studios and courses in the history and theory of architecture, building technology, digital technology, and professional practice. The architecture studio is the social and curricular foundation of the program. In the studio students learn to develop highly abstract ideas into concrete forms, and find architectural solutions to problems arising from detailed building programs and defined sites. Representational skills such as drawing, model making, and computer modeling are practiced rigorously as essential skills for design. A secure personal studio workplace is available at all times for all students.

The four-year Bachelor's degree in Architecture qualifies students for careers in architectural offices, building construction, development and public agencies. To become a licensed architect in Kentucky and other states, the graduate must complete a two-year Master of Architecture program. Both degree programs are offered at the University of Kentucky.
