A University of Colorado Denver Architecture education combines critical thinking with active making. We teach the fundamentals of design (organization, structure, and systems), and then help you develop and apply your unique vision to the design of buildings, neighborhoods, and cities.

A BS Arch degree is confident preparation for a career in allied fields such as construction or real estate, or as a project manager, marketer, estimator, inspector, appraiser, developer, or facilities manager.

This four-year pre-professional program also prepares you to enter accredited professional Master of Architecture (M Arch) programs across the country as well as graduate programs in Landscape Architecture, Interior Architecture, Planning, Historic Preservation, and Urban Design. 

The BS Arch program also offers you a network of experienced graduate students, working architects, and other design, construction, and real-estate professionals with practices in Denver and around the world.
