About Dartmouth College

Founded in 1769, this Ivy League school is known for its medicine, engineering & business programs. Dartmouth College's architecture program, within the Studio Art Department, offers a unique approach to architectural education by integrating it with a liberal arts curriculum. Students develop skills in communicating architectural ideas through two- and three-dimensional representations, using free-hand drawing, drafting tools, and model making. The program emphasizes factors like climate, site, orientation, materials, and structure in the design process. Students explore spatial organization, light manipulation, and the experience of time in architecture, experimenting with drawings, models, and digital media. Contextual, cultural, economic, and technological conditions, including sustainability, are addressed in design projects. The program is supported by facilities including an Architecture Studio and Computer Lab equipped with industry-standard software and fabrication tools. Students can also take advantage of the Hopkins Center Woodworking Workshops.
