The purpose of the minor in Architecture is to provide an opportunity for Tulane undergraduate students who choose to study architecture beyond the introductory level but who do not wish to pursue a major or a professional degree in the field. The requirements are designed to allow students as much flexibility as possible in pursuing their individual interests while also providing a basic overview of the discipline. Students wishing to minor in architecture should meet with the Tulane School of Architecture and Built Environment Academic Advisor to establish a curriculum.
The following charts summarize two ways to fulfill the requirement for the Architecture Minor.
To complete the minor students must have a minimum of 12 unique Architecture credits, (ARCH) courses applied to the minor and no other Major or Minor. Further, in accordance with the Newcomb-Tulane Policy, no courses counting toward the student's first minor will count toward the student's second minor. Learn more here.
At least 9 credits applied to the minor must be completed in Residency at Tulane. Transfer credit or Study Abroad courses approved to satisfy the Architecture minor courses are not considered “in Residency” for the Architecture Minor.
Electives can be chosen from any Architecture (ARCH) course. Students should contact their School of Architecture and Built Environment Academic Advisor to plan their minor and get permission to register for any course with school or program restrictions.
