Degrees & Programs

School of Architecture, Planning and Landscape Architecture
The Architecture Program is a five-year program that leads to an accredited professional Bachelor of Architecture degree. The professional Bachelor of Architecture (B. Arch.) is a fully accredited program by the National Architectural Accrediting Board.
The five-year curriculum is structured as two stages of study:
- Pre-Architecture
- Professional studies
Service learning opportunities form an important component in the curriculum.
After graduating with this degree and successfully completing an internship students are eligible to begin taking the ARE licensing exam. See www.ncarb.org for more information.
Students apply for admission to the Bachelor of Interior Architecture Program during their second year of the Architecture Program. The Interior Architecture Program has a separate admissions process in addition to the same basic admissions requirements as the Architecture Program. This is because students are pursuing both degrees concurrently.
At the end of five years and two summers of study, the Interior Architecture (ARIA) student receives:
- Bachelor of Interior Architecture degree
- Bachelor of Architecture degree
The ARIA curriculum prepares the graduate as a specialist in shaping the exteriors and the interiors of design environments.
The Bachelor of Science in Environmental Design is a flexible, multi-disciplinary degree. The degree content includes:
- Five core environmental design courses
- Directed electives
- Free electives
Students are encouraged to use the free electives to earn one or two minors.
Two summers of coursework are required for the environmental design workshop series. The degree is a good option for students who are interested in pursuing graduate studies in design, planning, and construction related programs.
The Auburn University Landscape Architecture program prepares students for careers as landscape architects who will imagine, design, and built the 21st century’s landscapes. The Landscape Architecture Program both offers the tools to engage many of the most pressing issues the world faces today and works with a medium—the landscape—that is richly expressive and engaging.
The Landscape Architecture Program offers degrees at both the Undergraduate and Graduate level. The Bachelor of Landscape Architecture (BLA) degree is a four-year curriculum, while the Master of Landscape Architecture Program (MLA) typically takes three years to complete.
In our studio-focused curriculum, students explore contemporary issues, directly engage landscapes and communities outside the walls of the university, and learn with a faculty of leading landscape practitioners and researchers.
