Welcome from the Dean

It is with great pleasure that I welcome you to the College of Architecture and Construction Management (CoACM)! The college and departments of Architecture and Construction Management are filled with extraordinary faculty and staff who are here to serve the students at the start of their journey. This journey is not simply the time spent in classrooms or design studios over the next few years but will be a life-long experience, one which starts with a strong foundation from the CoACM. 

The disciplines of architecture and construction management are inherent in our everyday lives. In our homes, places of worship, businesses, recreation and leisure we are reminded of the importance of good design and well-managed projects. The built environment is around us all and plays a vital role in our mental and physical well-being, which in turn affects our interpersonal relationships. 

It is our ambition to nurture students through the rigors of these highly complex areas of study and provide them with experiences that will prepare them to be the next leaders of the industry.

We are building professionals!

 

Best,

Dr. Andrew Phillip Payne
Dean and Professor of Architecture
