Overview
The department (DoArch) is focused on an interactive, haptic, and performance based curriculum rooted in fundamental issues of professional architecture culture and practice. The undergraduate degree program begins with a unique design based liberal arts education and segues into an focused training in architecture. DoArch is by design one of the smallest programs in architecture in the U.S.A.. Teaching and scholarship in DoArch is focused on the studio, the shop, the classroom, and regional communities. The core mission of the Department of Architecture is to prepare graduates for careers empowered in a socially responsible and civic profession; fostering collaboration and innovation in issues facing contemporary design practice; and building an academic dialog on a long-standing discipline rooted in material culture, place-making, and graphical inquiry.
