The four-year Bachelor of Science in Architecture degree is a pre-professional degree. It provides the basis for various career possibilities, including the professional degree of Master of Architecture or the Master of Landscape Architecture; these advanced degrees are normally awarded after two years of graduate study.
MAJOR REQUIREMENTS: Entrance Requirements
All entering students majoring in Architecture are admitted as Architecture-Intended majors.
As Architecture-Intended, students complete 1st and 2nd year ARCH courses in the correct sequence and also complete their core curriculum. These courses must be completed before declaring major and enrolling in any 3000/4000 level ARCH/INTD courses.
The Undergraduate Architecture Program consists of a series of lectures and design studios that must be taken sequentially. The program will take a minimum of 8 semesters to complete for both new freshmen and transfer students.
The course sequencing of both the design and lecture courses has been designed to help students successfully complete the program and the course sequencing is strictly enforced.
To be declared into the Architecture major, students must complete all requirements for admission to a degree program. Applicants must meet the department’s minimum 2.5 GPA requirement (requirement changes to minimum 2.8 GPA starting Fall 2008).
Students must complete all Basic Studies courses (first two years of the degree program) in Architecture and must complete the Core Curriculum of the course sequence before qualifying to take any 3000/4000 ARCH or INTD course.
Students not within the program must obtain special permission from the Architecture Undergraduate Advisor to enroll in a 3000/4000 level course.
Students interested in changing their major into the SOA from another major are required to have a minimum 2.5 GPA in UTA courses.
