Description:

We learn by doing.The School of Architecture is devoted to a professional education with a sensibility honed by the conditions of an extreme climate. In our Sonoran Desert setting we teach students to design for extreme conditions in accordance with principles of sustainability. Students and researchers then build on that knowledge in application to other climates. Our students learn by doing. From building and breaking model structures to develop an understanding of building physics to design-build studios in which students build furniture, shelters, and small buildings, learners thrive in this hands-on environment. Students grow in ways that prepare them for the later challenges of professional practice in an ever-changing built environment.Career paths our graduates have taken include:ArchitectureArt and visual communicationConservationEngineeringInterior and spatial designConstruction and fabricationProject managementSoftware design and developmentTheatre, film, and television production designBachelor of ArchitectureThis five-year program culminates in an accredited, professional B.Arch degree.
