The five-year Bachelor of Architecture
curriculum is a professional degree program
that prepares students for the practice
of architecture at the entry level, part
of an intern development program that leads
to professional registration. This curriculum
is designed to enable students to learn
theories and methodologies of architectural
design, as well as to understand the social,
economic, political, and technological
forces that shape the built environment.
The principal educational component of
the program is a coordinated series of
studio courses in which creative design
talents and management skills are developed.
The Bachelor of Architecture (BArch) Program
is accredited by the National Architectural
Accrediting Board (NAAB). Holders of this
degree may, upon completion of postgraduate
apprenticeship, be admitted to the architectural
licensing examination offered in each state,
through which they may become registered
architects.
