Students interested in applying to the Bachelor of Science in Sustainable Built Environments (SBE) can often complete a two-year program at their local community college and complete the remaining two years of the SBE program at the University of Arizona. Students can also use SBE to launch into a graduate degree at CAPLA by applying to an Accelerated Master's Program (AMP) leading to a Master of Architecture, Master of Landscape Architecture or other options.
