Building Better Futures
Over 150 years, the College of Architecture, Art, and Planning at Cornell University has built a solid foundation as a global leader in our creative and applied disciplines. From renowned programs in architecture, art, and city and regional planning, to recently launched departments in real estate and design technology, our work has never been more essential to how we build a more sustainable, just, and resilient world. In the face of major global concerns, our responsibility to meet the challenges of the next century and prepare future generations to be leaders and innovators of the built environment, creative economy, and civil society couldn't be more pressing or relevant.
In 2021, as part of its To Do the Greatest Good campaign, the university launched an affordability initiative aimed at making its education even more accessible, to ensure that the most talented students from all socioeconomic backgrounds are fully equipped to lead, thrive, and tackle their generation's greatest challenges. As part of this campaign, and to honor Ezra Cornell's vision of "any person ... any study" and support the creative capacities of each and every AAP student, the college has begun Building Better Futures, an initiative to increase the number of scholarship funds available to undergraduate and graduate students and enhance the student experience across all five departments.
