CBE Resources

Seattle is a global hub for innovation, and much of that spirit and mindset begins at the UW. At the College of Built Environments, we value the traditions of design and community building. Through mixed discipline studios, travel programs, service learning projects, and research, you’ll build and grow your community in and outside of the classroom.

Equity, Diversity, and Inclusion

We envision a more equitable and diverse College of Built Environments that acknowledges historical and present-day institutional racism and various forms of oppression. We strive to be a college that centers justice, inclusivity, access, and collaboration and build a culture of trust where people are seen, heard, and valued as part of the CBE community.
