As a result, they know how to build, what

to build for whom, and how to enhance

the surrounding environment, in the city

or country, in a public works project or a

private home.

The Graduate Architecture and

Urban Design programs offer three

graduate degrees—one professional and

two post-professional.

The first-professional Master of

Architecture (M. Arch.) degree is an

84-credit, three-year professional degree

program for students holding a four-

year undergraduate degree in any field.

This program prepares students to take

the architectural licensing exam and to

become practicing architects. Students

may also receive advanced standing for

pursuing further graduate studies.

The post-professional Master of

Science in Architecture (M.S. Arch.) is

a 36-credit, three-semester (summer,

fall, spring) program for those who hold

an accredited five-year Bachelor’s of

Architecture or the equivalent. A thesis is

completed in the final semester.

The post-professional Master of

Architecture and Urban Design is a

33-credit, three-semester (summer,

fall, spring) program for those who

hold an accredited five-year Bachelor’s

of Architecture or the equivalent. A

culmination project is completed in the

final semester.

Students in the M.S. Arch. and the

Urban Design programs are encouraged

to develop specialized areas of research.
