Art was first taught at an American college or university in 1869 when the Yale School of the Fine Arts was established. 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.
耶鲁大学艺术学院于1869年成立时为全美首个艺术学院,并于1916年成立建筑系。1972年,耶鲁大学将建筑学院定为独立的专业学院。系馆是由建筑师保罗·鲁道夫设计的著名的耶鲁大学艺术与建筑系馆。

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.
建筑的任务是对人类环境的创造。这既是对人类价值的体现,也是对人类活动与其中的环境的体现。通过设计过程,建筑强调出环境、行为和文化因素的相互关联, 这些内素揭示了建筑的组织形式。建筑学院的学生要有设计出人类和谐环境所应具备的基本要素的敏锐的直观、想象力和聪颖的头脑。建筑设计作为综合性的创意过程是耶鲁大学建筑学院的焦点所在。
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.
学院采用多元化的建筑专业教学方针。学生有机会充分了解到现代建筑流派。正如在其目前的教师名册中所提到的,耶鲁大学建筑学院以其教授的思想、审美和理论的多样性著称。因此,学院强烈声明,不会推动单一的建筑风格或学习方法,而是帮助每一个学生发现自己独特的设计方法。
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年以来,耶鲁大学建筑学院为一年级学生提供了设计与建造结构的独特机会,并作为其研究生教育的一部分。与其他建筑学校不同的是,这个项目对班级中所有学生都是强制的。
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,焦点在于经济适用房。这些房子让学生得到与客户工作的体验,并使他们有机会回应经济适用房和城市工作提出的挑战。这些学生表现出对社区发展项目的极大热情。他们中许多人冋到学校后,决心将这种带有社会责任感的工作融人今后的职业生涯。有机会参与这样的设计和建造工程的施工大大增强了他们的信念和灵感
