The monumental Cathedral of Learning at the University of Pittsburgh was designed by architect Charles Z. Klauder with Stone & Webster serving as the builders. In the words of Chancellor Bowman, "the aim of the University of Pittsburgh, as expressed in the Cathedral of Learning, is to train students to see the elements of a problem, to unify those elements, to come to a decision to have the courage to stick to it."

The Cathedral of Learning is a 42-story Late Gothic Revival building and the tallest educational building in the Western Hemisphere. The building was listed in the National Register of Historic Places in November 1975.
