The College of Arts + Architecture is a community of imaginative thinkers, makers, and problem-solvers working in design and the visual and performing arts to create a more beautiful and just world. A close-knit college of over 1,000 students, the CoA+A offers more than 30 degrees and concentrations across five creative departments: architecture, art & art history, dance, music, and theatre. Areas of support include student welfare, class supplies, scholarship assistance, recruiting, lecture series, school-wide events, promotion, and related needs.
