The 建筑艺术 Major

建筑艺术 is the integrated study of building practices, human interaction, culture, aesthetics, and the natural world. The only Bachelor of Arts in 建筑艺术 in the Mid-Atlantic region, Bryn Athyn College gives students a unique opportunity to both study the role buildings have historically played within society and design exceptional architectural works. Courses range from history lessons to studio classes; students can choose to specialize either in 金属 or Glass.

Modern workplaces need employees who can turn vague concepts and data into finished 产品. Our program gives you a detailed view of the procedure of creating buildings--from traditional techniques to modern applications. Whether you end up working at an architecture firm or elsewhere, the 建筑艺术 program imparts both the practical skills and holistic knowledge for you to succeed in a variety of contexts.

Our intimate community ensures that students are able to take the mind, heart, and spirit of a Bryn Athyn education and apply it not only to the real world, but to their 自己的生活. Professors work closely with each student to identify areas of strength, opportunities for improvement, and professional possibilities.
