Overview

Through the Architecture program at Columbia University, students participate in the ongoing shaping of knowledge about the built environment and learn to see architecture as one among many forms of cultural production.

Key Features

At the same time, the major stresses the necessity of learning disciplinary-specific tools, methods, terms and critiques.

Thus, work in the studio, lecture or seminar asks that students treat architecture as a form of research and speculation which complement the liberal arts mission of expansive thinking.
