MArch Architecture

  • DeadlineStudy Details:

    MArch 2 years full-time

Course Description

The MArch Architecture programme expands the ‘hands-on’ ethos of our highly esteemed BArch Architecture course to integrate industry and research further. Students engage with the very latest thinking and technologies in architecture and urban design to foster innovative applications for our global future.

The programme is structured around a student-centred learning approach and ‘research by design’ pedagogy that provides a flexible framework from which you can deliver design experimentation and entrepreneurial thinking by taking advantage of the broad ecosystem of actors and resources that our integrated design lab approach affords.

Entry Requirements

A portfolio submission and interview will form part of the admissions process for candidates that have earned a first or 2:1 on their Part 1 course.

In cases where an exceptional portfolio and interview score is achieved by a candidate with a 2:2, an offer may be made. Consideration of job prospects form part of the criteria given the structure of year one.

To undertake the MArch, all students must complete the entire course with Loughborough University. Candidates should note that there is no provision for direct entry to the second year of the course, nor is there any opportunity to study abroad at another University for any period of the course.
