I can't speak for the program but UNM is a good school and Albuquerque is a
great place to live.  Many bright, forward thinking people make it a
wonderful place to live. I've visited co-ops and research gardens in
Northern New Mexico and can tell you that there is scope for the imagination
there.
  I worked on my master's there after completing my bachelors at the same
school in education. I know the reputation of the School of Architecture is
good.   When my mother-in-law attended she was drummed out because she was
among the first women to try for a degree in architecture but that was a
long long time ago.
