Design Intelligence surveyed employers to find which architectural design schools are producing the best graduates.
The top three architecture schools are: 1. Harvard University; 2. Cal Poly San Luis Obispo; and 3. University of Cincinnati. "The survey consisted of one question: 'In your firm's hiring experience within the past 5 years, which schools do you feel have best prepared students for the architecture profession?' Each respondent was to list up to 10 NAAB accredited architecture programs. The rankings were established directly from these poll results."
