The College of Architecture and Urban Studies at Virginia Tech has more than 2,300 students, 15,000 active alumni, and hundreds of industry partners that are making a global impact in architecture, art, construction, design, and public and international affairs.

Through our classes, research, and outreach, CAUS students and faculty are rising to the challenge of building resilient, thriving communities — and spaces and places that allow people to live better lives. Your gifts support this vital work. They help provide student scholarship, conference, and study abroad experiences; professors of practice and industry experts in our classrooms; and research that partners students and faculty with communities and industry leaders to solve world problems.

Last year, your generosity enabled our college to raise $280,223 for the college's annual fund — an increase of 42 percent over the previous year. These funds make a tremendous difference in supporting students in the School of Architecture + Design, School of Public and International Affairs, and School of Visual Arts throughout the year.

Please consider making a gift today of any amount — or becoming a Giving Day Ambassador for the College of Architecture and Urban Studies. With your support, the college can continue to grow our impact and opportunities for students.
