Architecture Studio Minor

Explore the principles of architecture theory, history, and practice.

Lehigh’s Architecture Studio Minor gives students a foundation in architectural studies, training students with the skills to critically examine the buildings and spaces around them.

These courses focus on architectural design studios, complemented by art studios, history and theory courses, and introductory materials and building technology courses. An abridged version of the major, the minor lets students explore architectural studies as a complement to another major.
