About the MA
The MA in Architecture is designed for graduates and architects in practice wishing to further specialise in architectural design, develop their design and technical skills or follow a design research/research path to a PhD. You’ll study a range of academic, research-based topics in specific areas that reflect your experience and interests.
You can personalise your studies for the MA in Architecture (MA/Arch) with a number of specialisms. These include history and theory of architecture, architecture and the visual arts, digital techniques in architecture and design, parametric and sustainable design. You will meet professionals from renowned offices such as Hetherwick’s Studio, Foster + Partners and Zaha Hadid Architects, who are regular guests in our design reviews. You will participate in exciting field trips, visit world-leading exhibitions and practices.
This 12-month full-time programme comprises four core modules (total 60 credits), up to four optional modules (total 60 credits) and a research-based dissertation/thesis (total 60 credits) which you’ll complete over the summer.
