Description:

The professional Master of Architecture (MArch) is a rigorous and comprehensive program, preparing graduates for the full range of activities in architecture. It provides a thorough base of knowledge in history, theory, technology, ecology, society, and professional practice, while developing skills in design through an intensive sequence of design studio courses.



The Daniels Faculty also offers a Master of Architecture Second-Year Advanced-Standing Option (2 years). The advanced-standing option is offered to applicants who demonstrate advanced capabilities, as determined through review of academic background and design portfolio. Advanced-standing students join the curriculum outlined below at the beginning of the second year of study. Both the MArch and the advanced-standing option are intended for those who do not already hold a professional degree in architecture. Individuals already holding a professional degree are encouraged to consider the post-professional Master of Architecture option or the Master of Urban Design program.
