Tulane UniversityArchitecture Program ReportSeptember 2013I.3.Institutional CharacteristicsI.3.1 Statistical ReportsA. Program Student CharacteristicsNAAB Annual Reports are included below from 2008 and 2012 to document these issues as acomparison between the fall of the previous NAAB Visit and the most recent data we have at this time.As an overview, it is safe to say that the graduate program has grown substantially and theundergraduate program numbers have declined somewhat. That decline has continued into the fall of2013, but at this time we do not have full data on this year’s entering class. Diversity is comparableacross this time frame and our demographic diversity is very similar to Tulane University as a whole.We continue to attract highly qualified students as a selective private institution drawing student interestfrom across the United States and abroad.Time to graduation was seriously impacted by Hurricane Katrina (fall 2005) across the entire university.However our graduation rates have normalized, and although some students transfer out of the Schoolof Architecture into another major during their early years in the program, the overall graduation rate iswell over 80% for our entering cohort as well as the university as a whole (it has steadily risen since2006). We do not have hard data on the percentage of those entering in fall 2008 who graduated by2013, but we estimate that to be around 60%. Of this group, nearly 100% of these students graduatedwithin 150% of the allotted time.B. Program Faculty CharacteristicsThe program has seen growth in diversity since the spring of 2008. This has been a high priority for theSchool administration and faculty. The following chart tracks faculty demographics between the twobenchmark dates (spring 2008 and fall 2013).Tenure and PromotionThere have been four tenured appointments since 2008 (Professor Schwartz, Professor Kinnard,Associate Professor Redfield, Associate Professor Cox). Two of the four are women (one in aleadership role as Associate Dean for Academics) and one is African American (in a leadership role asAssociate Dean for Community Engagement). Professor Kinnard was awarded one of two endowedchairs at Tulane School of Architecture, which is supporting her research and community engagementwork with students and other faculty (Harvey-Wadsworth Chair in Landscape Urbanism.) There havebeen no internal promotions to tenured rank, although one faculty member is up for consideration at thistime (Assistant Professor Marcella Del Signore). One faculty member was promoted to full professorfrom within the program (Professor Ammar Eloueini, Intl. Assoc. AIA).There has also been an increase in the number of licensed architects on the full-time and adjunctfaculty during this period as well.53
