Welcome to the BAC Community!
Community information is sponsored by the Student Affairs Department. This section of our website will provide you with helpful information and facts to enrich your experience as a BAC student. Feel free to utilize links and tools on this page to assist you in navigating your search for information that will enhance your success and enjoyment at Boston Architectural College. BAC staff and faculty are sensitive to the pace and demand of our students who balance academic/professional and personal responsibilities. We encourage contact and inquiry often, and when schedules prevent us from meeting in person, we hope that you will regularly access BAC news and updates from the community section of our website.
The BAC is ideally situated in heart of Boston’s Back Bay; we serve the community as a hub of design activity in Boston and an advocate for the increased exchange of design ideas and education. In addition to our buildings at 320 Newbury Street and 100 Massachusetts Avenue, our students engage in design practice at over 300 firms throughout the greater Boston and surrounding areas.
Our location is a convenient and accessible site for hosting lectures on issues related to architecture, Interior Design, Landscape Design, Real Estate Development, and City Planning among others. An annual lecture series, The Cascieri Lectureship in the Humanities, brings a renowned lecturer to the BAC each spring to speak about the connections between design and humanities. Two exhibition spaces showcase work by design professionals and students alike on issues of interest to the public at large.
BAC faculty and administrators represent the wider community of Boston area practitioners who have shaped the College since it’s founding in 1889 and make it what it is today—a college committed to creating experienced design professionals, and a gathering place for people who are passionate about design.
