The Fay Jones School of Architecture at the University of Arkansas offers education in these fields: architecture, landscape architecture and interior design. In recent years, a high percentage of graduates have achieved placement in both jobs and graduate programs after graduation. 〔"Department of Landscape Architecture." University of Arkansas. (Website. ) 6-7-2008.〕 On September 12, 2013, the Fay Jones School of Architecture celebrated the completion of a construction project more than three years in the making. The renovated Vol Walker Hall and the new addition, the Steven L. Anderson Design Center, were rededicated and dedicated, respectively, on the west side of the addition. In 2010, the Donald W. Reynolds Foundation donated $10 million to name the addition to Vol Walker Hall the Steven L. Anderson Design center, honoring Anderson, foundation president and a 1976 graduate of the Fay Jones School’s architecture program. The U of A also contributed $19.8 million toward the project, an example of how the campus facilities fee is being used to help pay for deferred maintenance and renovation for specific capital improvements. The 34,320-square-foot design center addition is made from limestone panels, steel, architectural concrete, Arkansas white oak and glass. Added to the 56,635 square feet in Vol Walker Hall, the total space in the building is now 90,955 square feet. According to current estimates, the project cost was a little more than $32.4 million. About 54 percent of that total went toward the renovation of Vol Walker Hall, with about 46 percent going toward the addition. The state-of-the-art facility – which includes several design studios, a computer lab, a design shop, a 200-seat lecture hall, a securable exhibition gallery, student and faculty lounge areas, and a green roof – will help enhance and expand the already top-notch education provided by the school’s faculty and administration. As the university moves forward toward the goal of becoming one of the nation’s top 50 public research universities, the Fay Jones School already has gained a solid reputation. The architecture program was ranked 19th in the nation, and eighth among public universities, in a survey by the Design Futures Council, published in DesignIntelligence in 2012. The school also tied for the No. 1 ranking in a national survey of “top brands” in architectural education, also conducted by the Design Futures Council, in two categories: “Top for Regional Respect and Admiration” and “Best Small School Design Program.” ==Degrees== Five degrees total may be attained from the Fay Jones School of Architecture: the Bachelor of Architecture (B.Arch.) and Bachelor of Landscape Architecture (B.L.A.), each of which requires about 10 semesters of work; Bachelor of Interior Design (B.I.D.), which is a nine-semester program; and the Bachelor of Science in Architectural Studies (ARSTBS) and Bachelor of Science in Landscape Architecture Studies (LARCBS), both of which are the basis for graduate work in architecture or further education in other fields.〔"Degrees in architecture."
