Our Master of Architecture (MArch) program provides both a three-year degree option and an accelerated advanced standing pathway. As one of the rare programs housed within an art and design college in the US, we approach design as an intentional, iterative practice informed by social, technological, material, political, and cultural contexts. You'll develop creative skills to thrive in client-focused architectural practice. Qualified applicants holding a four-year architecture undergraduate degree may be eligible for the advanced standing track, which typically allows completion in two years, subject to admission committee approval.
