Message from the Dean
Welcome to the 2024-25 academic year! I am thrilled that you have chosen to study at the Daniels Faculty, and I look forward to getting to know you over the coming weeks and months.
As the newest members of the Faculty, one of the largest and most diverse design schools in North America, you’ll be immersed in an interdisciplinary milieu well positioned to meet the challenges of tomorrow. Our instructors are among the world’s leading experts in architecture, landscape architecture, urban design, visual studies and forestry. You will, in short, be learning from the best.
In addition to enjoying a world-class education, you will be learning in the heart of Toronto, one of the continent’s greenest cities and an international hub of commerce and culture. As students here, you’ll be a stone’s throw from everything downtown Toronto offers, and have access as well to a wealth of public programming offered by the Faculty. From regularly staged lectures by notable practitioners and scholars to dynamic exhibitions in our various galleries, our in-house events are an ideal way to both spur your imaginations and connect with the wider design world. I encourage you to take part in as many of them as you can.
In this calendar, you will find much of the material you’ll need to navigate your lives as Daniels Faculty undergrads, including information on degree requirements, programs of study, rules and regulations, and much more. If you have any questions, please contact our Office of the Registrar and Student Services, where our staff is always happy to assist you.
I look forward to this year together.
Best regards,
Robert Levit, Acting Dean
John H. Daniels Faculty of Architecture, Landscape, and Design
