You'll delve into construction techniques, building performance, project management principles, material properties, modern project management technologies, sustainable practices, facilities operations, and how structures interact with their surroundings.

Develop skills to critically examine, evaluate, and articulate these concepts while gaining expertise in architectural science. Explore diverse cultural perspectives, including how tikanga Māori influences building design and urban spaces.

The 180-point Master of Architectural Science (MArchSc) is a year-long professional program blending research methodology with practical industry projects, offering hands-on experience. This qualification holds professional accreditation from the New Zealand Institute of Building (NZIOB).

For research-focused students, the 120-point Master of Architectural Science (Research) (MArchSc(Res)) involves independent study. Admission requires completing the 120-point Postgraduate Diploma in Architectural Science first, followed by this one-year thesis in your chosen specialization.

Shorter options include a 60-point Postgraduate Certificate or 120-point Postgraduate Diploma, ideal for early exit or working professionals seeking part-time continuing education in architectural science.
