The second part of our Master of Architecture (MArch) professional qualification is validated by the Royal Institute of British Architects (RIBA), meaning our MA students graduate as registered architects.
Our MArch course emphasises design as a research practice. It understands the architect as someone whose cross-disciplinary role enables them to draw upon knowledge from various related disciplines, to develop effective strategies and models for sustainable practice in industry space. This may be within the context of the production of buildings, the spaces between them or the urban contexts in which they occur.
