Overview

In a rapidly changing world where unprecedented challenges emerge with ever-increasing frequency, the education of an architect must remain adaptive. The University of Colorado Denver Department of Architecture fosters the capacity to ask bold questions, take risks, think independently, and approach the work of architecture with curiosity. In doing so, we strive to be agile, flexible, visually adept thinkers and makers who contribute to addressing global challenges over a lifetime of active, inquisitive learning.

Key Facts

The Architecture programme from University of Colorado Denver equips students with the fundamentals of architectural design. Through courses in architectural history, visualization, and technology, students develop a strong foundation for design studio—the core of architectural education. These 6-credit studio courses progressively build students' ability to design increasingly complex buildings with greater independence. Ultimately, design studio encourages students to visually communicate architectural concepts while engaging in dialogue with diverse instructors.
