American University Architecture
Key US Academic Developments – Educational Projects
post updated March 6, 2022
US University Architecture
We’ve selected what we feel are the key examples of American university architecture designs. We aim to include projects that are either of top quality or interesting, or ideally both.
We cover completed US university buildings, new building designs, architectural exhibitions and architecture competitions across the United States of America. The focus is on contemporary American higher educational buildings but information on traditional buildings is also welcome.
We have 4 pages of American University Architecture selections with links to many individual project pages.
