This five-year program, including summers, combines a Bachelor of Architecture with a Bachelor of Arts in Plan II Honors—a collaborative offering between the School of Architecture and the College of Liberal Arts. It provides the dual benefit of professional architectural training alongside a robust liberal arts foundation. Prospective students should review the Plan II Program details in the College of Liberal Arts. Completing this dual degree requires a minimum of 186 credit hours.
The UT School of Architecture's undergraduate program features two dual degree pathways for architecture students. While these options lengthen the academic journey, they deliver significant educational and career advantages. The architecture curriculum merges professional training with the resources of a top-tier research institution, focusing on design alongside history, technology, visual representation, and structural principles. Students first master core conceptual skills and architectural fundamentals, expressing ideas through both physical models and digital/analog drawings. Advanced coursework then challenges them to tackle practical and theoretical design problems.
