The School of Architecture provides pathways to earn NAAB-accredited Master of Architecture degrees, enabling graduates to take the U.S. Architects Registration Exam. These programs vary in duration and academic level based on the student's prior bachelor's education. Graduate architecture degrees also feature specialization tracks, allowing students to tailor their studies to promising and engaging fields. The National Architectural Accrediting Board (NAAB), the only body authorized to accredit U.S. architecture degree programs, acknowledges three degree types: Bachelor of Architecture, Master of Architecture, and Doctor of Architecture. Accreditation terms may span 8, 3, or 2 years. The MArch 3G program caters to students with non-architecture bachelor's degrees, typically requiring three academic years plus one summer. It welcomes applicants from diverse educational backgrounds, including those without prior architecture training. The program concludes with either a written or design-focused Master of Architecture Project (MAP) and involves 102 graduate credit hours.
