MISSION STATEMENT
The RPI School of Architecture chapter of the American Institute of Architecture Students seeks to cultivate an environment in which students are empowered to explore academic and professional opportunities that will produce an informed, inspired, and innovative generation of architects.
GENERAL INFORMATION
AIAS is an independent, non-profit and student-run organization. It is a cooperative effort between thousands of individuals committed to advancing architectural education and the profession. Specifically, the local chapter at RPI is dedicated to
- Aiding incoming freshmen students and welcoming them into the field of architecture
- Organizing events to prepare students for the job market
- Promoting a positive architectural and educational atmosphere in studios
- Providing leadership opportunities and interaction with prospective students
- Connecting and linking students with the AIA and its members
- And finally, organizing fun events like our Beaux Arts Ball!
