2024-2025 ACSA Budget and Enrollment Survey Results

This year’s Budget and Enrollment Survey reflects changes in budgets, applications, enrollment, academic staffing, and curricula at 65 member schools. The survey was made available to ACSA Full, Candidate, Canadian, 2-year, and 4-year members. The survey is conducted annually and this report includes data collection dating as far back as the 2010-11 academic year. The purpose of this report is (1) to provide a cross-section of information regarding the current status of funding and admissions at architecture schools, (2) identify any ongoing trends survey results may suggest, and (3) gauge the pulse of faculty recruitment across architectural education.

TAD 10.1 Interconnect Call for Papers

This issue of TAD investigates how information and communication technologies shape how we perceive, use, manage, and design the built environment and how these relationships change as our world becomes more interconnected and densified. Topics for this submission may include but are not limited to innovative applied and scholarly research on shared models of urban intelligence, their design traits and limitations; design projects on networked human-computer interfaces for collective interactions; data-driven simulation studies on urban resource allocation networks; aesthetic projects on technologically augmented public engagement; case studies on current sociotechnical systems and their design characteristics; historical perspectives on the relationship between information technologies, urban operations, and planning specifications. The editors strongly encourage submissions highlighting contributions from those traditionally excluded or underrepresented in the field. Submissions may choose to address the focus area identified in this call for papers but are not required to do so.
