College of Architecture, Arts, and Humanities
Janice Schach, Dean
The collaboration of Architecture (Landscape Architecture, Construction Science and Management, City and Regional Planning, and Architecture) with Arts (Visual Arts and Performing Arts) and the Humanities (English, History, Languages, Philosophy and Religion, Speech and Communications Studies) produces a remarkably rich environment for study. The mixture of core disciplines with applied
professions/disciplines in the College provides both depth and breadth in learning. This structure affords students and faculty with skills that address the complex and interconnected challenge of the future, where it is no longer possible for these problems to be solved in a single discipline or profession. It is through the connection and communication between specialized knowledge areas that significant cultural progress will be made. These kinds of thoughts and action form a fundamental part of the College of Architecture, Arts, and Humanities.
