About the School of Architecture and Interior

The core mission of the Architecture Program
at the School of Architecture and Interior Design is to prepare
students for critical engagement with practice. The program
promotes leadership, collaboration, intellectual depth,
flexibility, and teamwork. The foundation of architecture education
at UC remains a liberal arts education, which provides a broad
basis for understanding the role of architecture within a cultural
and historical context; and a professional curriculum that is
enriched with elective seminars, lectures and design studios that
provide opportunities to engage in travel/study programs,
experimental projects, and service-learning. Students alternate
these more traditional academic experiences with periods of
professional experience through our landmark cooperative education
program (co-op).
The School of Architecture and Interior Design (SAID) confers an accredited first professional graduate degree in Architecture (M Arch), an accredited professional degree in Interior Design (BSID), an undergraduate degree in Architecture (BS Arch), a post-professional degree (MS Arch) and Ph.D. degree in Architecture. There are approximately 675 students in the School and 21 full-time faculty. SAID's top-ranked professional degree programs, as well as the BS Arch degree program, include a renowned cooperative education program (Co-op) that places students in professional work environments as part of the curriculum. SAID's Co-op network includes over 500 firms across the globe.
