In keeping with its mission as an experimental college, Hampshire
incorporates the history, theory, analysis and design of the built
environment in an interdisciplinary way in all of the schools in the
college. In the School of Humanities, Arts and Cultural Studies,
students can concentrate in architectural history and/or design in
Division II or III. Students also concentrate in urban history and
theory in the School of Social Sciences, in environmental design and
sustainability in the School of Natural Sciences, and in applied design
in the Lemelson Center and in the School of Interdisciplinary Arts.

Mount Holyoke Architectural Studies
Smith College
The architecture major is built on a mix of both studio and art history
courses. The art history courses examine the interrelated artistic,
historic, and cultural forces that create architecture and the built
environment. Likewise, the studios explore the built environment "as a
person experiences it," integrating traditionally separate aspects of
landscape and architecture, building and city in the active
"laboratory" of the design studio.
