Campaign 2010

Georgia Tech’s College of Architecture offers a well-rounded learning experience that supports the entire spectrum of the design and building industry. The College includes degree programs in architecture, building construction, city and regional planning and industrial design. The College also offers a distinguished doctoral program. It is home to the Georgia Tech Music Department, which offers extracurricular activities and a selection of courses that can lead to a minor.

The College of Architecture also has a vigorous research program anchored by six research centers:

• Advanced Wood Products Laboratory
• Center for Assistive Technology and Environmental Access
• Center for Geographic Information Systems
• Center for Quality Growth and Regional Development
• Construction Resource Center
• The IMAGINE Group

The College fosters a number of international programs in Europe and Asia, including a senior year abroad program for architecture students in Paris and summer study for building construction students in Paris.

In order to fulfill its goal of becoming one of the best design schools in the nation, the College of Architecture needs the support of private and corporate donors.

The most critical need facing the College for the next several years is improved and expanded facilities. While the need exists for all of the academic programs, it is particularly acute for the architecture, building construction, industrial design and music programs because the nature of design/construction and performance pedagogy requires significant studio or rehearsal space per student.
