The department's curriculum supports international exchange through programs abroad and collaboration with partner institutions overseas. Past and current programs include summer field studios in Berlin, China, and Taiwan, design/build studios in Japan and Mexico, quarter-long program in Rome and collaborative studios with Chiba University in Japan and Tamkang University in Taiwan. The department has an ongoing exchange relationship with Faculty of Horticulture at Chiba University in Japan. Students also have the opportunity to participate in other foreign study programs in the College of Architecture and Urban Planning.
