Overview
The Master of Architecture is a professional graduate degree offered through the McEwen School of Architecture on campus, normally completed in two years by students entering directly with a pre-professional architecture degree such as a BAS, BES, or BEDS; applicants without such a degree may complete an additional qualifying year. The curriculum centres on building for northern climates and community needs, combining architectural history and theory with hands-on design-build and community design projects. First-year studio options include craft and technology, community design, and Indigenous design, while the second year is devoted to an individual research-based design thesis. Admission requires a minimum 70% average, three references, a curriculum vitae, a letter of intent, and a design portfolio demonstrating creative, design, and technical skills. Graduates are prepared for careers in architecture, urban design, community planning, sustainable and environmental design, graphic design, and digital fabrication, particularly in contexts shaped by northern and Indigenous design considerations.
