UMA's Architectural Mission: Architecture through Engagement
Our mission expresses who we are: SMALL...INTEGRATED...HANDS-ON.
This fundamentally means we are about people: our students, our
faculty, and our community partners. We teach architecture through
engagement, educating, and empowering students to explore,
investigate, and analyze the built environment. Engagement brings
students into active contact with each other, their coursework, and
our community partners.
The University of Maine at Augusta's Architecture program is rooted
in three essential elements. The first is the mission to engage
community; this is where our work takes place. The second is the
desire to work in collaboration, within the department, the
university, and with community partners; this is what allows us to
affect positive change. And third is seen in our curriculum, based
in the idea of being "grounded in real"; these are the tools we use
to affect our collective build environment. For additional
