Interested in Graduate Studies in Architecture ?

Students intent on applying to architecture graduate school are encouraged to take studio art courses
as early as possible in their academic career and to take more than the required number of architecture
studios. In preparation for architecture graduate school applications, students should plan on taking the
portfolio preparation class. It is also recommended that students take computer-modeling courses that
will enable them to pursue summer internships. Internships are extremely valuable since they allow
students to test their interest in architecture as a profession.


Architecture Studio Courses: CEE 31, CEE 130, CEE 136, and CEE 137B.
Portfolio Preparation: CEE 139.
Computer Modeling: CEE 110 and CEE 111.
