Professor Anthony Cricchio joined the faculty at the Huckabee College of Architecture at Texas Tech University in the summer of 2023. He previously taught at The University of Oklahoma as an Associate Professor since the fall of 2008. Professor Cricchio holds a BS in Architecture (1993) and a March (1995) from the University of Texas at Arlington. He has practiced in the Dallas/Fort Worth area with Corgan Associates as well as teaching at the University of Texas at Arlington. He also held an assistant professorship position at Oklahoma State University.

Professor Cricchio is a registered architect and is NCARB certified. He believes that teaching architecture is an extension of his own inquisitive nature and is evident in his pedagogical approach to the design studio. In addition, he believes in a hybrid way of teaching. A combination of practical applications and conceptual problem solving, Professor Cricchio uses design competitions to explore this approach and to develop a student's critical thinking process through design.
