Our faculty are leaders in the fields of design, theory, and building technologies, and are joined each year by endowed professors who teach design studios related to their professional interests. A sampling of their research is described in the Center for Environmental Design Research Projects list. The M. Graduate students have the flexibility to choose a variety of paths within a two-to-three-year rigorous program, depending upon previous education and experience. The department makes no restriction as to the field of undergraduate preparation.
However, the length of the required residence period, the number of required semester course units, and the specific list of required courses may vary depending upon undergraduate major, professional and other work experience, and previous graduate study, if any.
The basic course leading to the Master of Architecture degree takes three academic years and requires the completion of at least 72 units during that period of residence. Persons who hold a bachelor of arts or bachelor of science degree with a major in architecture may receive up to one year of advanced standing.

Home Undergraduate Degree Programs Architecture. Course of Study Overview All undergraduates follow the same path through their junior year. Program Tracks During the spring semester of the junior year, students choose either a design research track or a studio track for the senior year.
Research Track: The research track option explores a particular theme for both the fall and spring semesters of the senior year. This theme changes each year, and is taught by a group of faculty members on a subject of their shared interest. For the fall semester, students enroll in a project preparation seminar, and for the spring semester, students take a studio—led by the same faculty—in which they develop their research and explorations, culminating in a final project. Studio Track: The studio track option is studio intensive, with more architecture courses required in addition to a design studio each semester.
Studio track students enroll in a structures course in the fall, and choose between an energy and environment or construction course in the spring. Architecture Minor The Architecture minor introduces students to the conceptual, technical, and design aspects of architecture. Major Requirements In addition to the University, campus, and college requirements outlined on the College Requirements tab, students must fulfill the following requirements specific to the major program.
General Guidelines All lower division courses taken in fulfillment of major requirements must be completed with a letter grade of C- or better. Courses taken to fulfill lower division major requirements may also be used to fulfill Seven Course Breadth.
A minimum grade point average GPA of 2. A minimum overall GPA of 2. Courses used to fulfill an upper division major requirement may not simultaneously fulfill a breadth requirement. Up to two upper division courses taken at another institution, including an approved study abroad program, may be applied to the major requirements below if transferable and approved in advance. Minor Requirements Note: Applications to the Architecture minor are currently on hold.
If you are interested in applying to the minor in the future, please contact the Architecture major advisOr. All courses used to fulfill minor requirements must be completed with a letter grade of C- or above. Students must earn a 2. Any course used in fulfillment of minor requirements may also be used to fulfill major and upper division CED non-major requirements. Courses used to fulfill a breadth requirement may also be used to satisfy minor requirements.
Students may use up to two courses taken abroad to fulfill upper division minor requirements, with faculty approval of the individual courses. Department of Architecture Statement of Goals The Underlying Goals of a Liberal Arts Undergraduate Education In its recent curriculum discussions, the faculty strongly supports a liberal arts education for undergraduates that teaches students to develop their intellectual capacities: how to research topics independently, how to ask penetrating questions, how to analyze problems, how to construct arguments based on critical thinking, how to make well-founded judgments, how to identify issues of importance for the future.
The Discipline-Specific Knowledge of Architecture The discipline of architecture covers a wide range of discipline-specific subject areas that are integrated in the process of design. The curriculum exposes students to five aspects of architecture and the broader field of environmental design: The Language of Architecture In essence, the language most particular to architecture is a graphic vocabulary that is the currency of exploration in the design studio.
The mastery of this language, like the learning of any language, begins with vocabulary and grammar, and then moves on to the construction of meaning. This latter aspect is rigorously pursued in the design studio, and for those planning to go on to graduate study in architecture, a number of these upper level studios offer an increasingly complex set of design challenges.
In the Language of Architecture, students should learn to: Understand the conventions of plan, section, elevation, and axonometric and their relationship to each other; Understand and become proficient in hand drawings and the use of digital media in the production of these conventions; Understand and become proficient in three or four digital programs that allow a facile exploration of design ideas; Become proficient in the production of design iterations; and Apply critical discussion to design solutions and representation.
The History and Theory of Architecture Courses in history and theory are intended to familiarize students with the development of the built environment in both western and eastern traditions, and to introduce recent and current theories of local and global importance.
The introductory surveys in architectural history test students to both recognize and classify architectural styles; these courses are complemented by others that focus on the intersection of history and theory, and for which the writing of papers is the primary means of evaluation.
In the History and Theory of Architecture, students should learn to: Articulate the theoretical concepts within the design studio projects; Understand the major periods and styles in architectural history; Understand the modern period, and its current debates; and Write critical papers comparing and contrasting both buildings and ideas.
The Humanistic Applications of Architecture Many students enter this field of study in hopes of improving the conditions of the built environment as it relates to the daily life of individuals and communities.
An emphasis in these aspects of the major can lead to graduate work in other disciplines, including environmental studies, law, global development and planning, and anthropology, or to a PhD program in architecture.
In the Humanistic Applications of Architecture, students should learn to: Understand the roles and responsibilities of the environmental professions; Understand the art and science of interpreting the social context of design; Identify the major issues of environmental design in the national and global setting; and Recognize the value of addressing sustainability at all levels of design.
The Science and Technology of Architecture How buildings stand up, how they operate to distribute and control light and air, and the materials and connections with which they are made bring the understanding of the discipline from its paper representations of design and theory into the physical world.
The student defines their specialty the basis for the dissertation , in one of the following areas of study: Building Science, Technology and Sustainability or History, Theory and Society. Programs List. Master of Architecture MArch The Master of Architecture program is designed to provide students seeking their first accredited professional degree with a comprehensive and challenging education leading to the practice of architecture.
Master of Science MS This researched-based, non-professional degree program offers the opportunity for advanced research in specialized areas within the increasingly complex subfields within architecture, preparing students for a range of careers.
Doctor of Philosophy PhD This advanced research-based degree prepares students with outstanding academic records for careers in teaching and scholarship in architecture and its related areas, or in roles in government or private companies and organizations that require specialization and experience in research.
