B.Arch Degree Requirements


Students matriculating prior to Fall 2019 must meet the curriculum requirements as they appear in the online course catalog for the academic year in which they entered Syracuse University.  Please see your academic advisor if you have any questions/concerns.

Students matriculating in Fall 2019 or later, must meet the following curriculum requirements.

Arts and Science Electives- 24 credit hours


Open Electives- 12 credit hours


Total: 156 credit hours


Study Abroad


Students enrolled in the B.Arch program are eligible for off campus study in our studio based programs in NYC, Florence and London after completing 5 semesters of design studio. All students wishing to study in our global campus programs must have a minimum 2.5 cumulative GPA and be in good judicial standing.

We also offer multiple non-studio based short term study programs through SU Abroad each year. Eligibility for non-studio based programs varies and is determined by the faculty member coordinating the program.

Minors


Architecture students may choose to pursue one of the many minors available on campus. Most minors consist of 18-credit programs and some must be taken in a particular sequence. Because of the limited number of non-architecture elective credits contained in the B.Arch program, careful planning is necessary for architecture students to complete a minor. Minors that are too closely related to the major will not be approved. Minors require a minimum of 18 credit hours, 12 of which must be in 300- to 400-level coursework.
