increased elective options and curricular flexibility for students, along with greater depth in the areas of Design, History/ Theory, Environment + Behavior, Technical Systems, and Professional Practices greater breadth of study within the program, including access to Historic Preservation courses, and opportunities for concentrations and minors introduction of higher academic standards toward completion of graduate degree, through raised minimum grade requirements in graduate courses improved career positioning of students at graduation, through achievement of graduate qualifications greater opportunity for faculty development through offering graduate coursework alignment with the University’s mission as a comprehensive institution offering graduate programs In 2001, the School began to plan for a Nomenclature Change from the Bachelor of Architecture to the B.S. / Master of Architecture dual degree through an NAAB Focused Evaluation process, and element of which involved seeking clarification of graduate standards from regional accreditors in the process. In March 2001 the Rhode Island Board of Governors of Higher Education (RIBGHE) granted initial 3-year approval and in 2004 full approval of the Roger Williams B.S. in Architecture / Master of Architecture professional degree program. In 2002, NAAB granted full accreditation to the Master of Architecture program through the Focused Evaluation Process described above. The School admitted its last Bachelor of Architecture class in 2004, who graduated in 2009. The establishment of the Master of Architecture Program has transformed the School in terms of student academic expectations, achievement and opportunities, diversification, facilities, faculty composition, faculty development, global and international programs, and community outreach, achieved through an evolution of governance. 2002 marked the establishment of a three year planning and assessment cycle in the School, intended to coincide with NAAB and other evaluation cycles. From 2002-2005, the School and Architecture Program continued evolution based on increased academic expectations at the graduate level and responsiveness to changing local and global conditions. Diversification of student experiences commenced through the establishment of a Providence Program (2000-2005) where students engaged the diversity of an urban environment; and through the enhancement of the University’s undergraduate Florence Program (2002- ) at the Palazzos Rucellai and Alamanni, which most Architecture students attend. With the establishment of the Master of Architecture, the University created a Graduate Assistantships Program for Architecture where 20 students per entering year/40 total over the 5 th and 6 th years receive $6000 assistantships for activities related to working with faculty scholarship, curriculum assessment, exhibitions and lecture series. This has contributed a remarkable change in the student climate, with more looked forward to. Evolutions of the 2004/2008 and 2008/2012 RWU Faculty Contracts has led to evolved graduate teaching loads and enhanced achievement of faculty scholarly, professional and creative activities. Facilities expansion in 2003-2005 has provided additional studio, lab, drawing, computer and DM lab, faculty offices, exhibition and lecture hall supporting graduate instruction. Faculty hiring has Enhanced our full time capabilities in digital media, professional practice and global histories through the hiring a Design + Digital Media (Andrew Thurlow, 2004-) Design + Professional Practices (Gary Graham, FAIA, 2007-), and an Asian Art and Architectural History (Poyin Auyeung, 2008-09, replacement pending currently) faculty. Replacement for a Design + Sustainability faculty member is still pending. Establishment of project-based Center for Macro Projects and Diplomacy (2003-), providing interdisciplinary engagement on large scale projects of
urgent environmental and political significance, through gifts from Frank P. Davidson, co-founder of the English Channel Tunnel In 2005/06, further changes were outlined in SAAHP Evolution: Assessment, Engagement and Re- Structuring for New Expectations and Outcomes framed by the dean with input from the faculty, inclusive of broader shared governance and faculty leadership across the school, including faculty Program Coordinators for curricular leadership in each area supported by reduced teaching loads. The document outlined the establishment of a school-wide SAAHP Planning + Assessment Framework inclusive of scheduled cycle of twice yearly, two-day planning and assessment retreats alternately addressing curriculum outcomes and strategic initiatives, included in an online internal website including a faculty handbook, structure, processes and outcomes inclusive of all committees and activities. In 2007/08, the School established new Architecture Visiting Professorships and a unique Teaching Firm in Residence program, where each semester distinguished architects and educators come to the program to teach graduate design studios and sometimes additional coursework, offering a lecture and exhibition in the School’s Public Events Series, and invariably hiring some of our outstanding students and graduates following. The programs additionally have provided more diversity of faculty composition that has otherwise been available, particularly in regard to female and Hispanic faculty, and tie us to leading practitioners in the region and to date in Europe and South America.
