Master of Architecture (M.Arch)
University of Cincinnati's School of Architecture and Interior Design (SAID) graduate degree in architecture is open to students who have already earned a pre-professional undergraduate degree in architecture (M-Arch II – comprised of 4 academic semesters and 1 semester of co-op experience) as well as those who received undergraduate degree in a subject other than architecture (M-Arch I - comprised of 6 academic semesters and 2 semesters of co-op experiences).
The University of Cincinnati's Master of Architecture is committed to the design and production of buildings that are useful, durable, meaningful, inspiring, and responsibly engaged with their physical, cultural, and social contexts. Architecture is a useful art, a technical craft, and an ethical practice. Cincinnati's professional, design-centered approach encompasses this range of issues, preparing graduates for licensing and a critical engagement with the world of practice. This critical spirit does not simply accept presumptions and practices at face value but examines their provenance and consequences with a wary eye and an open mind.
Co-op (also called professional practice or cooperative education) gives special character to the Master of Architecture program at the University of Cincinnati. Students reinforce their skills in the field through several co-op experiences.
