Architecture Building

Located on L.W. Minor Street in Prairie View, Texas, the Architecture Building at Prairie View A&M University is dedicated to preparing students for leadership roles in urban transformation and sustainable design. The School of Architecture program focuses on problem-solving, creative thinking, and decision-making to enhance the built environment. Students are encouraged to develop their skills in a student-centered environment that promotes personal growth and professional excellence.

The Architecture Concept Institute (ACI) offers a Summer Bridge Program for students interested in architectural design. Participants can earn 12 credits towards the B.S. Architecture program through a ten-week online study. Qualified students with a 2.9/4.0 GPA may receive free tuition, fees, and a laptop from the University. The program aims to provide a foundation in architecture for high school sophomores and juniors through the Architecture Enrichment Concept (ARTEC) summer program.

ARTEC exposes students to college life, architecture, construction science, art, and digital media arts. Participants work with faculty to design projects, build models, and explore graphic design and interactive media. The program aims to educate students on the roles of architects, construction managers, graphic designers, and developers in creating sustainable communities.

Additionally, the National Architectural Accrediting Board requires accredited programs to provide public information online to ensure transparency and accountability.
