两年制建筑和可持续性课程从建筑技术的AAS学位发展而来，该课程为学生提供了在建筑教育中至关重要的技术知识的基础。理学学士课程为基础课程增添了基础，包括建筑设计，社区研究，环境系统的工作室课程，以及构成综合性建筑学本科课程的其他技术课程。该课程的特别重点是整合可持续建筑原理课程水平。人们越来越了解建筑材料和系统的选择，场地规划，社区发展和历史保护在减少能源和自然资源浪费方面起着至关重要的作用。该计划旨在让学生探索建筑专业的这些新兴方面。建筑教育的这一重要发展将使学生为下一代专业人士的入学做好准备。
The two year Architecture and Sustainability curriculum grows from the AAS degree in Architectural Technology, which provides students with the foundation of technical knowledge critical in architectural education. The Bachelor of Science program adds to this foundation with studio courses in architectural design, community studies, environmental systems, and additional technical courses that shape a comprehensive undergraduate program in architecture.The special emphasis of the program is the integration of sustainable building principles at all levels of the curriculum. Architectural materials and systems selection, site planning, community development and historic preservation are increasingly understood to play a vital role in the reduction of waste in terms of energy and natural resources. The program is designed to allow students to explore these emerging aspects of the profession of architecture. This critical evolution in architectural education will prepare students to take their place in the next generation of professionals.
