ACSA Institutional Data Report

Research Metrics for Full and Candidate Members ACSA Research - March 2019 Introduction

Report Summary

Founded in 1912 to advance the quality of architectural education, the Association of Collegiate Schools of Architecture (ACSA) represents all accredited programs and their faculty across the United States and Canada, as well as nonaccredited and international affiliate members around the world. The ACSA Institutional Data Report combined data collected by ACSA with data reported to the National Architectural Accrediting Board (NAAB), the Integrated Postsecondary Educational Data System (IPEDS), the Carnegie Classification of Institutions of Higher Education and other architecture organizations to investigate current and historical metrics of institutional effectiveness and begin to allow for peer institu- tion comparisons. The report details more than 530 architecture degree programs at 148 institutions in- cluding trends in student enrollment, an index of schools by program size, statistics on college entrance examinations, and regional reporting on student faculty ratios and on-time graduation rates.

Peer Institution Regions

ACSA Regions for Research

Using regions created by the U.S. Census Bureau and the Carnegie Classification of Institutions of Higher Education, the following regions were created specifically for the purpose of identifying peer institutions within architectural education. The map below shows the 11 comparative regions. This reformatted research metric allows ACSA to track regional shifts in the enrollments, budgets, and faculty dynamics of Full and Candidate members. On the following pages, graduation rate is defined as the percentage of students who graduate within the published time to completion.

Note: Limited data are available for the Outlying Areas and Canada regions.

Region: New England

13 Schools

Enrollment trends for the Northeast show one of the smallest number of students pursuing B.Arch degrees across all regions. Total enrollment gaps for preprofessional degrees and M.Arch degrees are narrowing which could indicate alignment between the two degree programs. In the past 9 years, enrollment in B.Arch and M.Arch programs remained steady. Based on the 2017 data reported to NAAB, this region boasts the lowest student:faculty ratio and one of the highest average on-time graduation rates for preprofessional programs despite a a slow decline in enrollment since 2012.

Degree types for Full-time Faculty

Faculty credentials are often discussed as a way of gauging research capability. While approximately half of the faculty population holds a M.Arch, just under one third of the population have completed post-professional and Ph.D programs. In recent years, numbers indicate a small growth in M.Arch credentials and a corresponding decline in post-professional credentials and architectural registration. Schools also report a rapid decline in the percent of full-time faculty who are registered in U.S. jurisdictions. However, it is worth noting that the statistics below do not include part-time and adjunct faculty who are often licensed practitioners.

Licensure and Research degrees

This graphic illustrates the volatility of the number of faculty who are also registered architects in the United States. Conversely, the number of the faculty holding doctorates in architecture appears stable. These metrics mimic the academy’s struggle to find balance between professional experience and research expertise.
