Overview

Master of Architecture

The Master of Architecture at UTS is a focused professional degree required to become a practising architect. 

It is the second of two degrees undertaken after completing the Bachelor of Design in Architecture or equivalent.

A non-sequential structure, which allows students to select from a range of core and elective subjects, gives them choices regarding their professional specialisation to serve them best in their future careers. 

Architectural design subjects enhance a critical understanding of architecture as a discipline with an existing body of knowledge and a set of practices that continuously challenge and add to that body of knowledge. 

Research is undertaken as a preliminary to design decision-making, during design and in reflection on design development. 

Architectural practice subjects prepare students for expanded practice in emerging media and markets, contemporary business practice and global economies and within challenging social, environmental, political and regulatory contexts. 

Students who complete a Master of Architecture and subsequent practical experience are eligible to become registered architects in New South Wales.
