The Architecture Program is set up to attain National Architectural Accrediting Board (NAAB) accreditation and will seek it as soon as the program matures enough to be accepted. Similarly, the Graphic Design Program will strive for National Association of Schools of Art and Design (NASAD) accreditation.

In addition to the eight PMU core competencies, each of the programs in the College of Architecture and Design will demonstrate that their graduates have achieved program learning outcomes of their respective international accrediting bodies.
