Art and Architecture Schools

The disciplines of art and architecture overlap, so some colleges house the two programs together. They often share studio and classroom space with landscape, interior design and computer-aided design courses. Students are often encouraged to study across disciplines to get a broad foundation in art and design; some schools offer enriching study-abroad opportunities for the chance to learn in a real-world environment.
