    Master of Architecture

    About

    Develop the advanced design, technical and professional skills relevant to the practice of architecture and advancing originality and creativity in the field.

    The Master of Architecture is the second stage required to obtain a professional qualification in architecture, and builds on your core skills developed as an undergraduate.

    Through your masters study at UQ you'll gain a greater understanding of why architecture is such a dynamic and demanding profession, making a positive contribution to the shaping of our built environment and our culture.

    You'll also hone the essential skills of an architect, and your abilities to design buildings and spaces with an inherent concern for human living and society.

    You can choose from a range of courses that will develop your ideas about contemporary architectural practice. You'll challenge your thinking through topics such as housing and density, civic buildings and public space, and commercial architecture.

    Throughout the program you'll learn from professional architects and leading researchers who have strong local industry links and work to advance the discipline of architecture internationally.
