FIU Department of Architecture

We believe architecture to be a conceptually based intellectual endeavor and a form of critical inquiry that addresses the built and natural environments from the scale of the city to the scale of the detail. 

The FIU Department of Architecture, is committed to producing conceptual thinkers and skilled makers who are versed in the techniques and knowledge of the discipline and who are cognizant of: critical theory, history, science and progressive social values. 

To realize these objectives, design is taught as a critical, speculative and creative endeavor embracing both the humanities and the sciences.
