The MArch II program offers a NAAB-accredited professional degree tailored for individuals holding a four-year BA or BS in Architecture. This two-year, 60-credit curriculum commences each fall, with program length potentially adjusting based on students' prior architectural training. Foundational knowledge in visual/spatial design, conceptual thinking, problem-solving, and introductory courses in architectural history, theory, building technology, and digital representation are considered.
The MArch A.S. concentration provides a NAAB-accredited pathway specifically for UNC Charlotte architecture undergraduates. This accelerated track features three semesters of study, beginning with a summer design studio (either international or campus-based) and documentation course. During their final year, students undertake an integrated design project followed by a research-focused graduate thesis studio, complemented by coursework in architectural research, professional practice, and elective subjects.
