Minor in Architecture
The School of Architecture offers an undergraduate minor in Architecture for students in all disciplines at Georgia Tech. Students in the minor will learn to produce models for concrete solutions to “real-world sustainability problems” (social and ecological) and ones for handling complex, multidisciplinary collaboration.
Interested students should see the Minors Guidelines and consult with an academic advisor for more details.

- A maximum of 3 credit hours of transfer credit may be used to satisfy the course requirements for a minor. This includes courses taken at another institution or credit earned through the AP or IB program, assuming the scores meet Georgia Tech minimum standards.
- All courses counting toward the minor must be taken on a letter-grade basis and must be completed with a grade of C (2.00) or better.
- It is the major advisor’s responsibility to verify that students are using only courses from the designated block(s) from the student’s major field of study that are allowed to satisfy a minor program, that they are not using any Core IMPACTS courses (including humanities and social sciences), and that they are not using any courses for more than one minor or certificate. Any free elective course used to satisfy the course requirements of the student’s major degree program may also be used to satisfy the course requirements for a minor.
