Architecture Academics

The David R. Ravin School of Architecture (SoA) offers a nationally distinct Bachelor of Arts in Architecture degree and multiple graduate degree  programs for design and research. The School of Architecture is one of only two programs in North Carolina that maintains accredited status through the National Architectural Accrediting Board (NAAB).

The B.A. in Architecture is a four-year degree consisting of a two-year core program plus coursework within one of three possible concentrations. The three concentrations accommodate students with a range of interests, from those who wish to pursue the fastest and most direct pathway to professional licensure and architectural practice, to those interested in applying their love of architecture to careers in other disciplines. The SoA also offers a Minor in Architectural History and Heritage.

The SoA offers three primary graduate degree programs: Master of Architecture, Master of Science in Architecture and Master of Urban Design. All three degrees may be pursued individually or combined with other programs.

“I have a lot of public work under my belt, from high school in both Hickory and Winston-Salem, but once I got to college, I just didn’t feel as motivated. My scholarship has really encouraged me to get back in the community, specifically here at Charlotte. I have joined clubs and was a rep for SoA students. It’s allowed me to grow and learn about what’s going on around me, rather than what’s just going on in my own life.”
