Master of Architecture

MArch (3-Year Option)

A bachelor's degree (BA, BSc, BASc, BES, BFA, BCom) with a final-year grade point average of at least mid-B.

Recommended: courses in secondary calculus, secondary physics, and university-level architectural history (0.5 full-course equivalent [FCE]).

Some preparation or experience in architectural design or the creative arts is encouraged, but not required, such as hand or digital drawing, film or animation, graphic design, or sculpture. This program is suitable for those without formal training in design or the arts; graduates of any discipline are encouraged to apply.

MArch Program (2-Year: Second-Year Advanced-Standing Option)

An appropriate non-professional bachelor's degree in architectural studies or environmental design, or a comparable degree focusing on the built environment.

Admission to the advanced-standing option is based on the merits of the student's overall academic background and strength of design portfolio as evaluated by the MArch admissions committee.

MArch Program (1-Year: Post-Professional Advanced-Standing Option)

A post-professional advanced-standing option is available for students who are interested in pursuing advanced studies in architecture beyond their professional degree.

Applicants must have completed all requirements for an accredited architectural professional degree from a recognized university.
