Department of Architecture, University of Cambridge

The Department of Architecture is part of the Faculty of Architecture and History of Art in the University of Cambridge. Both Departments are housed in Scroope Terrace on Trumpington Street, Cambridge.

The department is currently led by Flora Samuel.

The department has attracted numerous guest lecturers including Louis Kahn, Zaha Hadid, Kenneth Frampton, Alvar Aalto, Le Corbusier and Yasmeen Lari.

ARCSOC is the Department's Architecture Society, hosting club nights, as well as guest lectures and highly popular life-drawing evenings. The society entirely self-funds, organises, and designs the Department's end-of-year exhibition, typically held in London. Reviewing the 2017 edition held at Bargehouse OXO Tower for the Architects' Journal, James Soane praised the "skilful explorations of materiality and narrative" on display. In 2024 the end-of-year exhibition returns to Cambridge and will be held in the Department and Kettle's Yard.
