PhD in Architecture

Introduction

The Ph.D. in Architecture program supports original interdisciplinary research in areas including the history and theory of the built environment, building technology, climate-conscious design, media and computation, urban studies, and spatial justice. With a commitment to fostering intellectual independence and promoting research excellence, the program prepares students for academic careers or leadership positions in areas such as curation, publication, and the building industry.
