Quacquarelli Symonds (QS), a global higher education analysis company, announced in March this year the top 20 17 architecture schools in the world 15.

1. MIT/MIT-USA

Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) is a world-class private research university located in Cambridge, Massachusetts, USA. Architecture ranks first in the world and art design ranks second in the world. The Department of Architecture, founded in 1868, is one of the four earliest departments of MIT and the first school in the United States with a formal architecture course. Because the first dean, Vail, received the traditional architectural education from the Paris Institute of Arts and Crafts, the architecture department of MIT was originally based on this system. It was not until the 20th century that the school gradually transformed and began to be called the leader of modern architecture. Zhang Yonghe, the host of "Extraordinary Studio", took a series of reform measures in 2005, which changed the image of the architecture department of MIT, showing more diversity, inclusiveness and openness.

MIT attaches great importance to students' hands-on ability, and has prepared world-class hardware prototypes for students, such as 3D printing, numerical control, water jet and laser cutting. The biggest feature of MIT architectural design is interdisciplinary and cross-application. In the process of learning, students' exploration in various fields and the application of various devices provide them with different thinking dimensions and broaden their horizons.
