Our NAAB-accredited, STEM-designated program emphasizes design while adopting a distinctive approach compared to traditional architecture schools. We uncover design innovation possibilities within today's urban landscape, real estate and construction sectors, historic preservation efforts, policy discussions, urgent societal issues, and environmental challenges. Essentially, our curriculum embodies practical yet transformative thinking. This philosophy positions architects at the forefront of shaping tomorrow's built environment and urban spaces. The Master of Architecture program benefits from our exceptional faculty and prime Boston location, using the entire metro region as an interactive learning environment while addressing worldwide concerns. Beyond design studios, students explore architectural history, theory, and strategic design through seminars, with elective options in real estate, sustainable construction, and urban planning. They can also cross-register in other Northeastern departments, tapping into the university's diverse academic strengths. Graduates emerge with a powerful combination of technical knowledge, theoretical understanding, and strategic skills to drive meaningful change in the field.
An accelerated one-year option exists for Northeastern BS in Architecture graduates. Qualified candidates with a professional Bachelor of Architecture degree from an accredited North American institution and at least one year of IDP-recognized work experience may also qualify.

Qualification Requirements
Portfolio is required to be considered for placement in the 2-year program. Portfolio is optional for applicants to the 3-year program. Applicants may be required to submit evidence of course equivalencies prior to matriculation for course placement. Applicants must have taken one semester of college-level physics and one semester of college-level calculus. Students who enter the program without physics and calculus have one year from the date of matriculation to complete and pass these courses, which can be taken outside Northeastern (failure to do so may impede progress in the program).To be considered for admission to a CAMD graduate program, international applicants must show proof of English proficiency. This requirement can be met by submitting satisfactory results on the Test of English as a Foreign Language (TOEFL), the International English Language Testing System (IELTS), or the Duolingo English Test. Please note that scores are valid for two years and scores must be valid at the time your application is received. Official score reports must be sent to Northeastern University directly from the testing agency. We expect a minimum score of 100 on the Internet-Based TOEFL (iBT). You should plan to take the exam well in advance of our application deadline as it may take up to six weeks for your official score report to be sent to CAMD. We expect a minimum overall band score of 7.0 on the IELTS.
