The specialty of architecture is a leading civil engineering specialty and is also an important major which will impact on the work of urban and rural construction. With the fast development of China’s urbanization and urban-rural integration, many universities and colleges have started to run the specialty of architecture; however, since it involves many areas such as engineering, humanity and art, there are great difficulties in constructing and developing this specialty. Based on the development of the specialty of architecture in Huangshan University, the thesis intends to summarize the problems and experience in the process of constructing this specialty, hoping to provide some references for its construction and development in some other universities and colleges as well as to offer help for further development of the specialty.
