The Urban Assembly School for Design and Construction appeals to students with
an interest in architecture, engineering, design and construction by enriching its
challenging academic program with the active involvement of architecture and
design professionals and partnerships with cultural institutions and universities.
In addition to integrating the themes of architecture and engineering throughout the
curriculum, UASDC takes advantage of its location in New York City to expose
students to architectural landmarks and building sites. Students leave UASDC not
only prepared to succeed in college but appreciating and understanding the built
environment that surrounds and shapes them.

UASDC students have taken architectural tours of not only New York but Paris,
Rome and Florence.
Working with the Center for Architecture Foundation, a school partner, UASDC
students have designed entrances to a New York City subway station, bridges,
hotels and emergency container houses.
UASDC is the only school in New York City and one of only five in the nation to
receive an Advanced Placement Program Startup Grant from the College Board.
