In the context of an art and design school, the program conceives Architecture as a culturally situated and situating discipline. The work in the Department of Architecture maintains a strong commitment to the act of making and to the development of a responsible and critical attitude, fostering a rigorous environment for experimentation and speculation. Incoming graduate and transfer students are required to attend the Transfer Summer Program, a nine credit intensive curriculum of drawing and design courses. Running from mid-June until early August, this program introduces students to the fundamentals of the visual arts and studio environment. Applicants with substantial experience in the visual arts may have this requirement waived by the department. Admitted applicants are notified at the time of admission about whether their attendance is required. Decisions on M.ARCH. candidates are made by the College's Admissions Committee.
