Study Details: MArch Full-time: 1 year
Urban Design MArch is a design-oriented and project-based programme, with a strong research component. Students work within a studio environment to explore how our cities can be improved with innovative design, and informed by theoretical research on the special structure of urban form.
Urban design delves into the study of cities, examining their structure, form and essential nature, as well as the multifaceted creative challenges and opportunities presented by global urbanisation.
This distinctive design-led architectural master's course aims to bridge the gap between architecture and urbanism, emphasising physical design and radical experimentation alongside rigorous analysis and contemporary theories and methodologies. Students investigate design decisions both strategically and in the context of urban regeneration.
The Urban Design MArch unites designers and thinkers from around the globe for design-led research into the complexities of urban living. Through design experiments, students explore innovative ideas for cities, addressing urgent contemporary issues such as climate change and the impact of digital technologies such as Artificial Intelligence.
A minimum of a second-class UK degree in an appropriate subject or an overseas qualification of an equivalent standard. Applicants with extensive experience in the field may also be considered. A design/creative portfolio is also expected. Applicants will be asked to submit a portfolio of their design work once their completed application has been received, and should not send or upload work until it has been requested.
