IIT Architecture

Overview

Graduates of Illinois Institute of Technology's College of Architecture join a list of fabled and influential practitioners who have shaped cities and skylines around the world. From Florence Knoll to Myron Goldsmith to Virgil Abloh, the legacy of the College continues to evolve, and with it, opportunities for alumni to claim their heritage. There are more than 3,000 living graduates of our programs practicing in many of the world's leading firms, including Zaha Hadid Architects, Krueck Sexton Partners, Perkins&Will, Ross Barney Architects, SHoP, Skidmore, Owings & Merrill, Studio Gang, and many more. 

College of Architecture alumni have been pioneers in design, technology, furnishings, management, education, fashion, real estate development, and nearly every other form of professional endeavor related to design. If you're not an alum already, we hope you'll become one. And for our graduates, we hope you'll reach out soon so we can include you in the lectures, seminars, symposia, reviews, and events the College sponsors every year.

Alumni Resources

If you register as a College of Architecture alum you will automatically be included in our outreach and communications programs and will receive invitations to alumni and college events—including our new digital alumni newsletter. Every year, we invite individuals and classes to Open House in the spring, as well as receptions at the Annual Meeting of the American Institute of Architects and in cities across the country. CoA alumni also become members of the University's Alumni Association and in that way also receive information on University-wide events and activities. We of course welcome alumni back to Crown Hall whenever they would like to visit.

Alumni Career Services

The Career Services office is dedicated to assisting Illinois Institute of Technology alumni in a variety of ways, from job search assistance to finding talented prospective employees for your organization. We know how important the alumni network is to career development and success for members of the IIT alumni community, and we do everything we can to support it.
