Architecture blends practical application with theoretical exploration in designing structures, landscapes, urban spaces, and various settings. The University of Cincinnati's Master of Science in Architecture Program offers a post-professional curriculum centered on advanced architectural theory, emphasizing critical thinking skills for both physical constructions and conceptual work. Participants examine architectural history and theories in connection with real-world applications. This program introduces diverse architectural concepts while developing students' capacity to analyze and evaluate physical spaces and their supporting documentation.
Designed mainly for individuals holding graduate degrees in architecture or allied disciplines like interior design, urban planning, or landscape architecture, the MS program features a shared foundation of two years' study in architectural theories and research methodologies.
