Florida Agricultural and Mechanical University (FAMU) is a public, historically black university in Tallahassee, Florida. Founded on October 3, 1887, it is part of the State University System of Florida and is accredited to award baccalaureate, master and doctoral degrees by the Commission on Colleges of the Southern Association of Colleges and Schools. In 2015, the National Science Foundation and the U.S. News & World Report listed FAMU as the top public historically black college or university in the nation. It is also listed among The Princeton Review's "Best in the Southeast" colleges.
The SA+ET Division of Architecture offers a variety of degree options to prospective students. At the undergraduate level, students may pursue either a four-year, pre-professional Bachelor of Science in Architectural Studies (B.S.) degree or a five-year, NAAB accredited, professional Bachelor of Architecture (B. Arch.) degree. Incoming freshmen and community college transfers are initially admitted to the four-year, pre-professional degree. Admission to the accredited professional B.Arch program is competitive and limited. The SA+ET Division of Architecture offers two graduate degree programs. The Master of Architecture (M.Arch.) program is the graduate professional program leading to the National Architectural Accrediting Board (NAAB)-accredited degree. The M.Arch program provides both a two-year curriculum for students with a four-year, pre-professional degree in architecture and a three-and-one-half-year curriculum for students without a pre-professional degree in architecture. The curriculum of study is composed of design studios, lecture classes, thesis development classes, and electives. The culmination of the M.Arch studies is the Master's Thesis Project. This final exercise is a synthesis of student's specific focus and individual interests, with the knowledge, experiences, and skills gained in the graduate experience. The Master of Science (M.S.) program is a non-professional program with a concentration in facilities management. It is a collaborative professional degree program between the FAMU SA+ET and the FAMU School of Business and Industry. It requires a minimum of one year of coursework.
