The Gerald D. Hines College of Architecture is the architecture school of the University of Houston, a public research university in Houston, Texas. It was founded in 1956 and is one of twelve academic colleges of the university. It offers both undergraduate and graduate level degree programs. In March 1997, Gerald D. Hines donated $7 million to the College of Architecture and the school responded by renaming the architecture school after him.[2] The gift was the largest ever received by the architecture school and among the 10 largest gifts received by the University of Houston.
