The program began with the introduction of a brand new curriculum in architectural engineering, which was developed and taught by Giesecke.
A wunderkind of the first magnitude, Giesecke, was a product of the A&M Corps of Cadets. An excellent student and former captain in the Corps, he joined the A&M faculty after graduating in 1886 with a B.S. in Mechanical Engineering.
He was only 17 years old!
Within two years, at age 19, he was appointed head of A&M’s Department of Mechanical Drawing. He completed a Mechanical Engineering degree at A&M in 1890, and in the ensuing years, while still on the A&M faculty, he studied architectural drawing at Cornell University and architectural design at Massachusetts Institute of Technology — where he earned a degree in architecture in 1904.
It was upon returning to College Station that Giesecke developed a curriculum in architectural engineering. He served as head of the A&M architecture program until 1912 when he took a job as professor of architecture at the University of Texas. There, until 1920 he engaged primarily in research as head of the Division of Engineering’s Bureau of Economic Geology and Technology.
In 1924, Giesecke earned his fourth degree, a Ph.D. from the University of Illinois. Then, in 1927, he returned to Texas A&M as head of the Department of Architecture and the official college architect. Within a year, he was named head of the Texas Engineering Experiment Station.
He was, without question, the first Aggie architect.
Through 1939, Giesecke designed and supervised the construction of many campus buildings that are still standing today, including the Academic Building, the Chemistry Building, the Williams Building, Cushing Library and Hart and Walton halls.
He was the first head of the Texas Engineering Experiment Station and he led the formation and drafted the constitution of the first Alumni Association, the forerunner of The Association of Former Students.
Giesecke’s life was characterized by his desire to learn by study, experimentation and observation. His daily notebook contained an entry from an experiment he was conducting just two hours before he died of a heart attack on June 27, 1953.
In 2004, Giesecke was posthumously honored as an Outstanding Alumnus of the College of Architecture. Following in Frederick Giesecke’s footsteps, as Aggies and designers who contributed significantly to Texas architecture, were his son-in-law, Preston Geren, Sr., Class of 1912, and his grandson, Preston Geren, Jr., Class of 1945. This year, Preston M. Geren, Jr. established a lecture series at the college in Giesecke's name.

Auditorium name honors 'first family' of Texas architecture
Bertram E. Giesecke, architect, was born on July 2, 1892, in New Braunfels, Texas, to Hulda (Gruene) Giesecke and Frederick Ernest Giesecke. His father was a professor of architectural engineering at Texas Agricultural and Mechanical College (present-day Texas A&M University) and then chairman of the department of architecture at the University of Texas in Austin (UT). Following in his father’s footsteps Bertram received his bachelor of science degrees in architecture from Texas A&M in 1911 and from the University of Texas in 1913; he had the honor of being the first graduate from UT’s architectural school.
Giesecke married Lois Yett in Austin on June 14, 1917. Later in life, they had two sons, Bertram Jr. and William. During World War I Giesecke served in the Signal Corps of the United States Army, where he achieved the rank of first lieutenant. The 1918 Austin City Directory listed him as a member of the architectural firm of Kuehne, Chasey & Giesecke. In 1920 he was an architect in the firm of Walsh & Giesecke.
Bertram Giesecke and former UT classmate, August Watkins Harris, Sr., formed the architectural firm of Giesecke & Harris in 1921. The firm was active throughout the state of Texas and designed residential, commercial, and public buildings. Three of their buildings are listed on the National Register of Historic Places, and a number of others are Recorded Texas Historic Landmarks. In 1941, with the impending threat of American entry into World War II, the partnership dissolved after Harris joined the United States Army.

In 1942 Giesecke formed the firm of Giesecke, Kuehne and Brooks. Major projects included the supervision of the building of the Commodore Perry Hotel and Perry office building in Austin. He was a member of the American Institute of Architects (AIA), Texas Society of Professional Engineers, and served as president of the Texas Society of Architects in 1946. He served in the federal and state government in various positions: charter member of the board of governors of the National Association of Housing Officials (1933), chairman of the Texas Relief Commission (1933–34), consulting architect for the United States Treasury Department (1935), member of the Texas Postwar Planning Commission (1943), chairman of the Texas Roadside Council, member of the Texas Centennial Commission, and member of the administrative committee of the Texas Safety Association. At the time of his death he was chairman of the Department of Defense Housing Commission and a gubernatorial appointee to the State Hospital Advisory Council.
