Where creative students strengthen social equity, further collaboration and pursue opportunities that make a difference
As the top-ranked college offering city and regional planning, landscape architecture, architecture, architectural engineering, and construction management programs, we help our students develop the skills and abilities needed to find creative solutions to real-time problems faced by industry and our global community.
Our community has worked collaboratively for over 75 years to shape the built environment. Please help support the future of Learn by Doing and the next generation of leaders by giving to the department or program that resonates with you. All gifts help us continue to foster our teacher-scholar model, provide state-of-the-art equipment and facilities, and amplify diversity, equity and inclusion through student and faculty support.
