    About

    Overview

    Experience a transformative journey in architecture with the Masters in Architecture at Oxford Brookes. Our program is designed to empower you, the creator, by fostering experimental and speculative approaches to architectural design and function.

    If you're seeking a professionally accredited course for ARB and RIBA pt II or LAM, explore our MArchD course.

    You’ll have the support to develop the skills for your own independent design research projects. We prioritize your freedom of thought and research, allowing you to merge your understanding of architecture and personal experiences with boundless experimentation.

    You’ll learn in a studio environment which provides the perfect setting for you to experiment with a wide range of mediums, including collage, drawing, 3D printing, and AI. We also invite specialists to conduct workshops, challenging you to question your perspectives, surroundings, and attitudes across different areas. By engaging in these activities, you will develop essential skills that will shape your future.

    Entry Requirements

    The course is intended for students who have completed their professional role-orientated education and wish to undertake speculative design-based research.

    Thus it is expected that applicants from the field of architecture will already possess an accredited graduate diploma or postgraduate degree in architecture (UK), a professional master's in architecture (US), or the international equivalent.

    Admission to the course will normally be open to applicants who fulfil one of the following:

    • hold a good undergraduate honours degree, min 2.2 (or international equivalent), in Architecture or a discipline relevant to Architecture
    • have an appropriate professional background and experience of designing architecture, or an alternative design discipline with strong similarities

    The course also welcomes applicants from other design fields: e.g Product Design, Fine Art, Graphic Design and Interior Design. Such applicants should possess strong undergraduate degree achievement.

    Please also see the University's general entry requirements.

    We offer a range of courses to help you meet the entry requirements for your postgraduate course and also familiarise you with university life in the UK.
