NAAB Accreditation

The following statement is required by National Architectural Accrediting Board (NAAB) to be included in all catalogs and promotional materials for an accredited program. 

"In the United States, most registration boards require a degree from an accredited professional degree program as a prerequisite for licensure. The National Architectural Accrediting Board (NAAB), which is the sole agency authorized to accredit professional degree programs in architecture offered by institutions with U.S. regional accreditation, recognizes three types of degrees: the Bachelor of Architecture, the Master of Architecture, and the Doctor of Architecture. A program may be granted an eight-year, three-year, or two-year term of accreditation, depending on the extent of its conformance with established educational standards.  Doctor of Architecture and Master of Architecture degree programs may require a preprofessional undergraduate degree in architecture for admission. However, the preprofessional degree is not, by itself, recognized as an accredited degree."

Kennesaw State University’s Department of Architecture offers the following NAAB-accredited degree program:

Bachelor of Architecture (150 credits)

The next accreditation visit for the 5-year Bachelor of Architecture Program at KSU: 2023
