Study Details: MA 2 year programme Full-time study
An ambitious re-imagining of architectural practices.
Inequalities. Global imbalance. Environmental collapse. Architecture is entangled and implicated within our contemporary world. There has never been a more urgent time to critically reflect on the ethical dilemmas that are embedded in the discipline and to forge new paths to create meaningful change. We seek to understand architecture through a new set of conditions. Joining us, you’ll be part of a programme that tackles pressing political, social, and ecological questions, empowering you to redefine your practice and contribute to positive change in the world.
Accredited by the Royal Institute of British Architects (RIBA) and the Architects Registration Board (ARB) our two-year Part II MA is at the forefront of architectural education practice. You’ll be given space to follow your own direction and explore experimental techniques, all within a supportive and research-informed space.
The MA Architecture programme prioritises innovation and experimentation and we are looking for students with a strong sense of curiosity, independence and agenda who want to be challenged. The majority of our students come from undergraduate studies in architecture, but this is not essential and we enjoy a diverse community of students. We also strongly encourage a minimum of one year’s work experience (in a related field) before entering into Master’s studies.
You should have achieved a high quality first degree in architecture (RIBA Part I) or an international equivalent degree or higher and should have at least one year’s work experience in a design office. Alternative undergraduate qualifications will be considered based on portfolio and personal statement.
You are required to submit a completed RCA MA application form, a digital portfolio of completed student projects together with any relevant supporting design material, and a brief video setting out your motivations and personal interests. If you wish to gain exemption from RIBA Part II, you must have completed their RIBA Part I satisfactorily. Design and critical thinking are prioritised in the selection of candidates.
