About Gustavus Adolphus College

The pre-architecture track at Gustavus prepares students to pursue professional graduate degrees in architecture and design, including Masters of Architecture (M. Arch), Masters in Urban Planning (M. UP), Masters in Landscape Design (MLA), Interior Architecture (MS) and Interior Design (MS) graduate programs. The program benefits from a liberal arts approach that develops and integrates skills in critical and visual problem solving, written and oral communication, material and conceptual exploration, and connections to the broader social and environmental contexts we both live and work in. Students explore spatial design, construction technology, and environmental issues, assembling a studio arts portfolio showcasing their talent. Courses in art and architectural history, geography, and environmental studies are recommended to understand the built environment in its social, geographical, historical, and biophysical context.
