Program description

You are prepared for professional registration and practice in the fields of architecture and design by completing the five-year Bachelor of Architecture program.
Students enrolled in the Bachelor of Architecture program learn how to design for today's Grand Challenges. We integrate design with state-of-the-art material and environmental research, as well as the Sonoran Desert's climate and terrain.
No matter where or how you practice, the design techniques you acquire as a B.Arch student will enable you to create strategies for problem-solving, research and innovation, and leadership and cooperation.
