Architecture Minor

A minor in architecture is directed toward Rensselaer students interested in architecture as a socio-cultural phenomenon and/or those envisioning a career in some segment of the building industry. The minor program provides an exposure to architecture—what it is, what it includes, its history, how it is accomplished; and to architects—who they are and how they think and work. ARCH 2150 The Ethos of Architecture, and ARCH 2160 Architectural Media are required but students may select the remainder of the courses from Architecture to build a concentration in architecture that supports their own disciplinary interests.
