Professors Watkins and J. P. White; Associate Professors Aranha, Bilello, Coombs, Davis, Driskill, Hill, Jones, Louden, Mross, Perl, and Peters; Assistant Professors Beltran, Buelinckx, Giaccardo, MacBurnie, and Shin; Instructors Gallegos and Ngo; Lecturers Edgar, Faulk, Martin, Powell, Shacklette, and Stephens.

The college supervises the following degree programs: ARCHITECTURE, Bachelor of Science in Architecture, Master of Science, and Master of Architecture; LAND-USE PLANNING, MANAGEMENT, AND DESIGN, Doctor of Philosophy.

The college awards a 5-year Master of Architecture, a professional degree; and a 4-year Bachelor of Science in Architecture, a nonprofessional degree.

The M.Arch. professional program consists of two parts: an undergraduate component consisting of 131 credit hours in courses at the undergraduate level, and a graduate component consisting of 42 credit hours in courses at the graduate level. Students will be evaluated near the end of the undergraduate level program to determine if they should proceed to the graduate level program. The review will consist of a combination of grade point average (GPA), graduate record examination (GRE), and a portfolio of work. Students wishing to pursue the M.Arch. must apply to the Graduate School and meet admission requirements for both the Graduate School and the college. The Master of Architecture degree is accredited by the National Architectural Accrediting Board. A student may elect the M.Arch. program or the B.S.Arch. program prior to completing the first three years of the core curriculum.

Combined degree offerings are available as follows: A dual degree (a Master of Architecture and a Bachelor of Science in Civil Engineering) is offered with the Department of Civil Engineering.

A second dual degree program (Master of Architecture and Bachelor of Business Administration with a major in General Business) is offered with the College of Business Administration. This program is designed to provide a broad background for a variety of careers in business, government, architecture, and building-related industries with particular emphasis on developing analytical tools and skills with managerial perspectives, thereby enhancing worldwide career opportunities. Degree requirements are given in the accompanying tables.

A third dual degree program (Master of Architecture and Master of Business Administration) is also offered with the College of Business Administration. Course requirements are listed in the accompanying tables. Further information on admission to the M.B.A. program is available through the College of Architecture and the College of Business Administration Graduate Services Center.

A 4-year B.S.Arch. consists of 146 credit hours at the undergraduate level. This degree gives students knowledge and opportunities in the building industry and related fields as well as the possibility to continue in graduate education.

Elective hours may be used to study a broad spectrum of interdisciplinary offerings or they may be concentrated into minors. Recommended courses of minor study are available in landscape architecture, interior design, business administration, and arts and sciences. Course listings for these minors are available from the College of Architecture.

The minor in general business provides those leveling courses required to be eligible to enter into the Master of Business Administration program.

Minors in the College of Arts and Sciences may be directed in three areas: cultural focus, philosophy, or fine arts. These address respectively, global and social issues, critical thought and writing, and creativity.

The College of Architecture encourages and invites students from other disciplines to enroll in architecture courses to obtain an understanding of human beings and their environment. Many courses in architectureespecially those in urban design and planning, history of architecture, and architectural delineationare available as electives to students majoring in other disciplines. Consent of the instructor may be secured in lieu of the professional prerequisites listed. Students majoring in other academic disciplines may complete minors in architecture with approval of the dean.

Off-campus programs are offered to enrich student experience. A two-semester summer program in Italy as well as other international programs enable students to study abroad. The program in New Mexico allows students to expand understandings of history and design related issues. The Architour offers the student the chance for concentrated study of American architecture and American architects. All students are expected to participate in one of these options during the course of their study.

The College of Architecture is affiliated with the American Institute of Architects and the National Council of Architectural Registration Boards; many faculty maintain memberships in the American Institute of Architects and are certified by the National Council of Architectural Registration Boards. The college is a supporting member of the Association of Collegiate Schools of Architecture, the National Architectural Accrediting Board, and the Architectural Research Centers Consortium. The college supports the Intern Development Program, the American Institute of Architecture Students, Tau Sigma Delta (national honor society in architecture and allied arts), the Texas Tech Student Chapters of the Society of Architectural Historians and Society of Women in Architecture, and maintains the Knights of Architecture, a service organization.

The Architectural Research Center provides faculty and students with additional opportunities for study and research. The center conducts planning projects in the southwest and in foreign countries and fosters exchange programs with foreign universities.

The mission of the College of Architecture is to broadly educate its students to become highly competent architects who will be leaders in the building industry as well as in society. Opportunities responding to the needs of a complex social environment and important global issues are available. Relying upon a sound historic perspective, the college offers instruction with a broad vision of architectural practice and research which recognizes the need for poetic expression in a highly technical world.

The college is fully committed to the research orientation of the University.

Mandatory Accreditation Statement. The National Architectural Accrediting Board provides the following statement: "Most states require that an individual intending to become an architect hold an accredited degree. There are two types of degrees that are accredited by the National Architectural Accrediting Board: (1) the Bachelor of Architecture and (2) the Master of Architecture. These professional degrees are structured to educate those who aspire to registration and licensure to practice as architects.

The four-year, preprofessional degree, where offered, is not accredited by NAAB. The preprofessional degree is useful for those wishing a foundation in the field of architecture, as preparation for either continued education in a professional degree program or for employment options in fields related to architecture."

As a nonprofessional degree, the Bachelor of Science in Architecture is not accredited by NAAB.

General Education Requirements. The University has established General Education Requirements for all students. A listing of these requirements appears in the All-University Programs section of the catalog.

Entrance Requirements. In addition to general University requirements, the following high school subjects and credits are mandatory for unconditional admission in the Architecture program.

Mathematics: Algebra I, II, Geometry (1 unit each), Trigonometry (1/2 unit)

English: English I, II, III, IV (1 unit each)

Science: Physics or Chemistry I (1 unit)

Academic reviews required for admission to the professional program include high school GPA, rank in class, SAT or ACT scores, and specific college preparation course work. Minimum scores are SAT1000, or ACT24, but interested individuals with lower scores should apply.

In addition to the above, studies in world history, geography, and art are strongly recommended. See admission requirements for Texas Tech University.

Entering freshmen who do not meet the unconditional entrance requirements may enter the College of Architecture as conditional students. All conditional deficiencies must be removed and certified by the College of Architecture associate dean before a student may enroll in architecture design studio courses. Conditional students must maintain at least a 2.5 cumulative GPA.

Transfer Students. All students admitted to the University must meet appropriate requirements for the Texas Academic Skills Program (TASP). Refer to admission requirements in this catalog for information relating to the TASP program. Students transferring from other institutions must submit a portfolio of previous work in architecture and a transcript of completed courses for evaluation and placement. Transfer students will not be admitted to the programs in architecture unless they have at least a 2.50 GPA, not less than a 2.50 average in architecture or architecture related courses, and not less than a 2.50 average for the last semester attended prior to transfer. The same requirements apply for students changing majors into architecture from within the University. Admission by transfer will be governed by all requirements listed for architecture majors.

Entrance into the Master's Level. To be considered for entrance to the master's level of the professional degree program, the student must have a 3.0 cumulative GPA for the last 60 hours of the undergraduate program, score at least 800 (verbal plus quantitative) on the Graduate Record Examination, and submit a portfolio for review. Students in the dual degree M.Arch.-M.B.A. program must also meet the requirements of the College of Business Administration before advancing to the master's level. Upon entering the graduate program, a student must adhere to the policies of the Graduate School which are set forth in the Graduate Catalog.

Architecture Majors. Majors in architecture must complete the first two years of their program before registering for the third year of design. To qualify for enrollment in third year design, a student must have achieved a minimum of 2.75 cumulative GPA and 2.75 average in architectural course work.

Grades of C. A grade of C or better is required for all courses included in the architecture degree plan. A minimum C grade must be earned in each design lecture and design studio to progress to the next design lecture and studio. (In the college, a C is equivalent to a grade of 70-79.)

Academic Status. The academic information section of this catalog gives specific information regarding academic status. Students on scholastic probation or scholastic suspension should familiarize themselves with those regulations.

Class Attendance. Students in the college are expected to attend all scheduled class meeting times and activities. Absences in excess of those stipulated in each individual course syllabus will result in either a F in the course or being withdrawn from the course.

Student Projects. The College of Architecture reserves the right to retain, exhibit, and reproduce work submitted by students. Work submitted for grade is the property of the college and remains such until it is returned to the student.

Pass-Fail Grading. Only general elective courses may be taken for pass-fail grading. Architecture majors may take no more than 9 hours pass-fail to satisfy degree requirements.

Electives. Students may select electives to broaden their educational experiences or they may elect a minor (18 hours) in one of many study areas. Students in the fourth undergraduate year of study may not take a freshman-level elective course without approval from the associate dean. Courses for required elective hours must have an identified knowledge content, intellectual rigor and documented testing and evaluation of knowledge gained, and must be approved by the dean.

Internship Program. Each student is encouraged to participate for one semester in the professional internship program. The program provides opportunities for professional experience in some of the nation's leading architectural firms.

Counseling and Advising. Faculty members assist students in career counseling and guidance. Advisement for course registration is provided by faculty members and the Academic Programs Office.

Application for Degree. A student must file an "Application for Degree" with the office of the Dean of the College of Architecture at least one year before the anticipated date of graduation. Subsequently, the student will receive a list of courses and be apprised of the number of grade points that are lacking.

In making this application, students must indicate the year's catalog under which they plan to graduate since they must meet all of the requirements of a specific year's catalog. This must be a year during which the student is registered in the College of Architecture. See also "Uniform Undergraduate Degree Requirements" in this catalog or "Degree Programs" in the Graduate Catalog depending on the degree being awarded.

Catalog Selection. Students will use the catalog issued for the year in which they were first officially admitted to the College of Architecture or may elect to use a more recent catalog in conference with and approval of the dean. However, if they later transfer to another institution or another college at Texas Tech, they will use the catalog in effect when they are readmitted to the College of Architecture. For these purposes, a catalog expires after seven years.

Correspondence Courses. Major or minor courses may not be taken by correspondence. A correspondence course cannot be used for graduation when completed during the student's final semester or summer term.

Course Load. The normal course load for a semester is 16 to 18 hours in undergraduate work. The dean's approval is required for a course load of more than 18 semester hours (7 hours for a summer term). Correspondence courses are included in the student's course load, as are courses taken concurrently at other institutions.

Students who are employed for more than 20 hours each week must have the approval of the dean to register for more than 13 hours per semester.

Ineligible Registration. The College of Architecture reserves the right to drop any ineligibly registered student from a course for reasons such as unapproved overloads, unapproved repeated courses, lower division-upper division rule infractions, excessive absences, and lack of prerequisites. Courses taken ineligibly may not be used in the student's degree program.

Transfer Courses. All transfer course work to be taken at any other institution must receive prior approval from the associate dean.

Master of Architecture.

Undergraduate Level Program. Academic reviews required for admission to the undergraduate level program include high school GPA, rank in class, SAT or ACT scores, specific college preparation course work and two years of foreign language. All courses require a minimum grade of C.
