As JUST is celebrating its third decade since its establishment in 1986, the Department of Architecture takes a step back to self-read and reflect upon its performance, and declares that a new momentum of its progress can clearly be felt. During the last decade, a considerable number of architects have graduated from the Department to participate in shaping the contemporary and future architectural life of Jordan. Some of our graduates have already joined the Department as young faculty members and scholars. Others are continuing their graduate studies abroad, rendering our hopes of a promising twenty first century a reality.
