Mission

The department of architecture strives to use design thinking and creative problem solving to address the issues faced by buildings, cities, and societies . We integrate this approach into how to teach students, the research outputs, and the services that we provide to local societies. The department is trying to prepare the graduates to actively participate in the design and construction of various building typologies in the Kurdistan, and respond to change in the local, national and international communities.

This is achieved through five year learning, working and practicing to cover architecture development needs by designing realistic projects in the city during the study periods.
