The Department of Architecture was established in the School of the Fine Arts in 1916. In 1972 Yale designated the School of Architecture as its own separate professional school. The School is housed in the masterwork of architect Paul Rudolph, the Yale Art and Architecture Building.

The task of architecture is the creation of human environments. It is both an expression of human values and a context for human activity. Through the design process, architecture addresses the interrelated environmental, behavioral, and cultural issues that underlie the organization of built form. The student of architecture is called upon to direct sensitivity, imagination, and intellect to the physical significance of these fundamental issues in designing a coherent environment for people. Architectural design as a comprehensive creative process is the focus of the Yale School of Architecture.
建筑的任務是對人類環境的創造。這既是對人類價值的體現,也是對人類活動與其中的環境的體現。通過設計過程,建筑強調出環境、行為和文化因素的相互關聯, 這些內素揭示了建筑的組織形式。建筑學院的學生要有設計出人類和諧環境所應具備的基本要素的敏銳的直觀、想象力和聰穎的頭腦。建筑設計作為綜合性的創意過程是耶魯大學建筑學院的焦點所在。
School of architecture adopts as basic policy a pluralistic approach to the teaching of architecture. Students have opportunities to become well acquainted with a wide range of contemporary design approaches. As reflected in its current faculty roster, the Yale School of Architecture is particularly noted for the extreme ideological, aesthetic,and theoretical diversity of its professors. Accordingly, the School has made a strong commitment to not promote a single style or methodology of studying architecture, but to help each student to discover his or her own method of design.
學院采用多元化的建筑專業教學方針。學生有機會充分了解到現代建筑流派。正如在其目前的教師名冊中所提到的,耶魯大學建筑學院以其教授的思想、審美和理論的多樣性著稱。因此,學院強烈聲明,不會推動單一的建筑風格或學習方法,而是幫助每一個學生發現自己獨特的設計方法。

Since 1967,the Yale School of Architecture has offered its first-year students the unique chance to design and build a structure as part of their graduate education. Unique among architecture schools, this program is mandatory for all members of the class.
自1967年以來,耶魯大學建筑學院為一年級學生提供了設計與建造結構的獨特機會,并作為其研究生教育的一部分。與其他建筑學校不同的是,這個項目對班級中所有學生都是強制的。
More recently, the focus is on affordable housing. The houses allow students the experience of working with a client and the opportunity to respond to the challenges of affordable housing and urban infill. Students have shown great enthusiasm for these projects focusing on community development. Many of them arrive at school with a desire to include such socially responsible work in their future professional lives. Having the opportunity to participate in the design and construction of such building projects often reinforces their conviction and inspiration to do so.
最近,焦點在于經濟適用房。這些房子讓學生得到與客戶工作的體驗,并使他們有機會回應經濟適用房和城市工作提出的挑戰。這些學生表現出對社區發展項目的極大熱情。他們中許多人冋到學校后,決心將這種帶有社會責任感的工作融人今后的職業生涯。有機會參與這樣的設計和建造工程的施工大大增強了他們的信念和靈感
