The MArch in Architectural Studies program emphasizes research and project-based learning, incorporating multidisciplinary approaches across seven specialized tracks. Students are guided to cultivate independent thinking skills via critical self-assessment and teamwork, both integral to our educational philosophy. Our goal is to assist students in defining their position as conceptual thinkers, creative designers, and practical builders within broader societal contexts. Participants undertake an Individual Research Project, developed progressively through three phases during the academic year, supported by foundational lectures, seminars, and targeted readings pertinent to their selected specialization. The curriculum also encourages cross-disciplinary exploration, allowing students to broaden their research perspectives and foster collaborative dialogue among peers.
