Masters Degree Description

Engaging with the built environment in a sustainable way

  • Develop the skills and confidence to make a difference as part of a community of changemakers addressing climate change
  • Contribute to positive change in design practice by embracing innovative approaches
  • Benefit from our close connections in London with architects, researchers and policymakers actively working in the field of sustainability

We’ve created this new one-year MArch Design Practice for architects and designers who want to study spatial practice in a broader sense. While this isn’t a RIBA/ARB validated part II programme, it’s a unique opportunity to develop tools to deliver renewable and equitable futures.

Develop your practice in a flexible way. You take core units such as material processes and carbon economies and choose from a range of electives, including housing & social reproduction, digital storytelling or soundscapes.

Entry Requirements

The programme is aimed both at postgraduate students and mid-career professionals, and offers a balance between core knowledge, elective and collaborative work and a self-defined research project – enabling you to choose your own areas of interest, while developing the skills to implement your ideas.

Candidates are selected entirely on merit, and applications are welcomed from all over the world, as well as from mid-career designers and career changers. The selection criteria considers creativity, imagination and innovation as demonstrated in your portfolio or equivalent professional experience, as well as your potential to benefit from the programme and to achieve the MArch standard overall.

The programme welcomes architects, designers and spatial practitioners from a range of backgrounds, including those from other design disciplines such as sound, moving image or performance, with an interest in the built environment. Applicants from other backgrounds are also welcome, such as practitioners involved in local government, NGOs, journalism and activism.
