The Department of Architecture offers the Bachelor of Architecture, which has unconditional validation from the Architectural Profession (SACAP) and the Commonwealth Association for Architecture (CAA).

Landscape Architecture is a discipline that focuses on intervention in the landscape through the activities of planning, design, and management. It also focuses on the science that underpins these activities and the implementation of proposals. It is united around the concept of landscape, which is defined in various ways but is generally understood to mean outdoor spaces, environments, and places and relationships between people and these spaces, environments, and places, both in terms of activities and perceptions. Landscape Architecture is concerned with landscapes of all types, both urban and rural, and at all scales from the smallest open space to the region.

Kent’s Master of Architecture (MArch) programme is a two-year (known as Stage 4 and Stage 5) full-time undergraduate professional programme focused on architectural design. It forms the second part of the UK’s traditional five-year continuum of professional undergraduate education in architecture leading, for graduates with the required exemptions from professional examinations, toward registration in the UK as an ‘Architect’.

This program aims at providing a multidisciplinary background for architects, with a special focus on environmental sustainability and landscape design. The concept of sustainability is associated with a high-quality transformation of the landscape, from the macro-scale of urban planning to the micro-scale of technical details, how the varied scales connect and interrelate with each other.

The David R. Ravin School of Architecture (SoA) offers a nationally distinct Bachelor of Arts in Architecture degree. The B.A. in Architecture is a four-year degree consisting of a two-year core program plus coursework within one of three possible concentrations. The three concentrations accommodate students with a range of interests, from those who wish to pursue the fastest and most direct pathway to professional licensure and architectural practice, to those interested in applying their love of architecture to careers in other disciplines.

The MA in History and Theory of Art and Architecture (MSTAA) includes the study of the history of both architecture and art. It is a complete Master which aims at counteracting the growing marginalisation of architecture in art history studies. At the same time, the study of the history of art and architecture in different eras (medieval, modern and contemporary) is complemented by in-depth studies on the theory and criticism of architecture, artistic literature, the history and practice of restoration (with moments of practice in the field), museology and digital humanities with an eye towards other artistic and cultural expressions like photography, cinema, theatre, and literature. Practical workshops and internships in affiliated institutions complete the Master's training offer.

At The University of Memphis, the study of architecture and interior architecture encompasses both the art and science of design. The focus is on the education of the individual student through a well-rounded approach in a sequence of foundation courses, design studios, and professional/technical courses. The program of study for each degree program is structured to engage students in the processes and professional standards of design and technology necessary for shaping the built environment. Students are placed at the center of discovery-based studies, and required to assume responsible participation in their studies.

UNC Charlotte’s M.S. in Architecture with a concentration in Design Computation and M.S. in Information Technology with a concentration in Human-Centered Design dual degree uniquely combines design and computational expertise. This curriculum prepares you for careers in human-computer interaction, ubiquitous computing, gaming, and visualization.

Prepare to become an architect and step into a profession where art, engineering, design, and urban thinking converge. At Nebrija, you will be guided by some of the most influential voices in contemporary architecture, including Carlos Rubio—co-winner of the Prado Museum Extension Competition alongside Norman Foster—and the Pritzker Prize-winning studio RCR Arquitectes.

The MA Architecture Programme (ARB/RIBA Part II) at the Royal College of Art is a research-driven, studio-based post-graduate education that critically tests the making of architecture and spatial practice. The program supports the development of each student’s personal position and practices relative to the field. The program fosters an inclusive, critical, and responsive, context in which architecture is explored as a medium, rather than a goal in itself. We are attentive to urgent political, social, and ecological questions, which allows us to interrogate the contexts and processes of architectural production and support our students to redefine practice.

The Architecture and Sustainable Heritage MA offers a distinctive programme for those interested in studying the historic built environment. The course provides a unique platform for students to advance careers in heritage practice or engage in specialised research.

The Master's degree in Architecture qualifies you to practise as an architect. Its aim is to provide a body of advanced knowledge that builds on the content of the degree in Architecture Studies and it involves the in-depth study of design, technology and urbanism as well as solid, multidisciplinary training in architecture.

An English-taught, full-time Master of Science (Architecture) at Aalto University (120 ECTS). Over two years (full-time), the programme deepens students' technical, scientific and artistic thinking with a strong emphasis on sustainable, socially responsible design, creative experimentation and multidisciplinary collaboration. Specialisations include wood construction, computational design, preservation, urban design and more. International exchange and optional internships are available.

The mission of the Department of Architecture is to provide the society with graduates qualified for a successful professional career in Architecture. The department focuses on teaching students the fundamental theoretical and practical principles of Architecture and their application to solving real-world problems.

UNC Charlotte’s M.S. in Architecture is a 30-credit-hour program that focuses on cutting-edge research essential to the architectural profession. This program offers specialized coursework and in-depth investigation, preparing you for advanced roles in architecture.
