Architectural Studies MAJOR
interdisciplinary, 13 courses
Architectural Studies offers an interdisciplinary major; there is no minor in architectural studies. Architectural studies students should take Art 115 Three Dimensional Design, Art 125 Introduction to Drawing, ART 116 World Architecture (alternate: ART 110 Visual Culture-taught by Prof. Stan Mathews only), and HIST 102 The making of the Modern World or HIST 103 Revolutionary Europe (alt: EUST 102 European Studies II: Early Modern to Post Modern Europe) in their first year. They should complete the seven required preliminary courses (see below) by their second year. Architectural studies courses (ARCH 200-400) should be taken in years two through four. Note only three architectural studies courses are required to complete the major, but four to five are recommended. Other courses not in the elective groups defined below may be substituted with the approval of the program coordinator.

Seven preliminary courses to be completed by the end of the second year; ART 115 Three Dimensional Design, ART 116 World Architecture (alternate: ART 110 Visual Culture), ART 125 Introduction to Drawing, HIST 102 American Urban History or HIST 103 Revolutionary Europe (alternate: EUST 102 European Studies II), MATH 130 Calculus I or MATH 131 Calculus II, PHYS 140 Principles of Physics, and one urban studies elective. ARCH 200, ARCH 301 or 302, ARCH 311 or 312, and three additional architectural studies or elective courses selected in consultation with an advisor in the program. One of the 13 courses, either the urban studies elective or one of the three additional electives, must be in the social sciences division.
