Study Details: MA 1 year / 45 week programme Full-time study
Embrace an interdisciplinary approach to creating new spaces
City design is more than just designing physical structures. It’s about how we live together, work, and move. And, at a time of multiple crises, we need to design not just practical responses but reimagine the future. Studying at a leading art and design college, you’ll be perfectly placed to do exactly that.
Some students study with us to specialise, but this programme is also a great chance to broaden your expertise or pivot your practice. We’ll help develop your technical skills and use digital tools while learning how to communicate your ideas. You’ll go beyond designing in and for cities and drawing plans by thinking about the institutions that guide them in the process.
Candidates are selected entirely on merit and applications are welcomed from all over the world. The selection process considers creativity, imagination and innovation as demonstrated in your portfolio, as well as your potential to benefit from the programme and to achieve high MA standards overall.
This programme accepts students from a wide range of backgrounds, including career changers. Many of those who join the programme will be students of architecture with a 3+2-year Bachelor and Master’s degree, or Master's-equivalent five-year diploma, preferably in Architecture, Urban Design, Urban Planning or other related design discipline looking to acquire expertise in city and urban design projects.
However the programme also attracts many people from other backgrounds, such as social sciences, geography, urban studies, or economics, as well as those who do not already have a Master's degree. If prior work is of exceptional merit and you are able to demonstrate your ability to work alongside and contribute to multidisciplinary teams, please do apply.
Evidence of intellectual and professional curiosity and a readiness to engage in a rigorous and demanding period of study is essential.
