The Master of Architecture I (M.Arch I) is an NAAB-accredited professional degree that equips graduates for architectural licensure. Beyond this core purpose, our M.Arch I curriculum cultivates creative professionals who emerge as design innovators and industry leaders across multiple disciplines including sustainable architecture, urban planning, construction management, and community development in Milwaukee and surrounding regions. The program features two distinct pathways tailored for students with or without prior architecture undergraduate degrees.
Our M.Arch programs attract candidates from varied academic, professional, and personal experiences - diversity we actively embrace and nurture at SARUP. This inclusive approach aligns with our dedication to educational accessibility: through initiatives like the Midwest Student Exchange and Minnesota Reciprocity agreements, we provide cost-effective graduate architecture education to a broad student population. Exceptional non-Wisconsin applicants may qualify for in-state tuition rates via our annual merit-based scholarship program, which automatically considers all out-of-state candidates during the admissions process.
