The Master of Architecture (Professional) and Heritage Conservation (MArch(Prof)HerCons) provides a solid foundation for modern architectural practice. Completing this combined program takes less time than pursuing both degrees individually, equipping you with professional architecture qualifications while developing expertise in evaluating and preserving heritage structures. This NZRAB, NZIA, and CAA-accredited program meets professional standards. To qualify as a practicing architect, you'll need to finish this (or any MArch(Prof) program) along with fulfilling registration board requirements.
You must have completed an undergraduate degree in architecture and GPE of 4.0.
Other pathways to study: The University’s Bachelor of Architectural Studies (BAS) degree is a suitable pathway into this combined masters programme.
