Rice School of Architecture
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Rice School of Architecture is a nationally-renowned undergraduate and graduate institution for the built environment at Rice University in Houston, Texas. Rice's graduate and undergraduate programs in architecture, which typically maintains an enrollment of around 200 students, consistently rank among the most prestigious in the country. Founded in 1912, the faculty consists of twenty architects, historians, and theoreticians, supplemented by visiting scholars and is led by Dean and Professor Lars Lerup.
The school offers five types of degrees: a Bachelor of Arts (with a major in Architecture or Architectural studies), a Bachelor of Architecture or B.Arch. (an accredited professional degree), Master of Architecture or M.Arch., Master of Urban Design, and Doctor of Architecture.
Though less well known in the US, the Rice School of Architecture holds a better reputation among international practitioners, critics, and scholars. Many come from around the world to participate in periodic all-school lectures and an intensive series of studio reviews, which are held during Jury Week at the end of the semester==External links==
