It is one of USC's 17 professional schools, offering both undergraduate and graduate degrees in the fields of architecture, building science, landscape architecture and heritage conservation (historic preservation). The School of Architecture is consistently ranked amongst the most prestigious architecture schools in the country. The graduate program in architecture is currently ranked 9th in the nation by DesignIntelligence.[1] Notable alumni that graduated from the School include Frank Gehry, Thom Mayne and Paul Williams. The dean is currently Milton S. F. Curry. HistoryThe program at USC began as an architecture department in 1916. Soon after, with the help of the Allied Architects of Los Angeles, a separate School of Architecture was established in 1925.[2] By 1928, majors and degree-granting programs were provided to students. One of the earliest undergraduate programs was the 5-year professional Bachelor of Architecture program. Over the years, the school grew and expanded its influence into one of the premier architecture programs in the country. The school now offers 3 undergraduate degrees, 3 undergraduate minors, 4 master's degrees and 1 Ph.D. The current main buildings are Watt Hall & Harris Hall. Watt Hall was built in 1974 and designed by alumnus Edward Killingsworth ('40).[3] USC Architecture took over maintenance of the Gamble House,[4] the Craftsman masterpiece in Pasadena designed by Greene and Greene in 1966 in a joint deed with the city of Pasadena, which took over responsibility for the grounds.[3] The school also owns the Samuel Freeman House, a Frank Lloyd Wright designed house in the Hollywood Hills of Los Angeles built in 1923.[5] The Freeman house was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1971.[6] The house has also been listed as a California Historical Landmark #1011,[7] and as Los Angeles Historic-Cultural Monument #247 in 1981.[8] The Freeman house is undergoing long-term stabilization and rehabilitation.
