Architectural historians at the University of Virginia explore the history of architecture, landscape, and urban form by analyzing the sources and forms of architectural expression while considering architecture a critical feature in a broader social and cultural context. With its roots in the study of American architectural history, the department’s areas of study also include Mediterranean, European, and Asian architecture, cities, and landscapes. Graduates of our program include college and university teachers, architects, preservationists, writers and museum professionals. Degree programs include a Bachelor of Architectural History, a Master of Architectural History, and a Ph.D. in Art and Architectural History offered jointly with the faculty of the Art History department in the College of Arts and Sciences.
