(MArch) (RIBA pt II) Master of Architecture University Of Westminster

Program Description

The Master of Architecture (MArch) (RIBA pt II) program at the University of Westminster is a two-year full-time program primarily aimed at students who wish to pursue professional registration as an architect. It is structured to cover complex and uncertain professional contexts. It includes design studio activities, lectures on professional contexts and technologies, and a written dissertation. The first year curriculum allows the students to explore their own research and design process, while the second year is more focused on professional practice skills with a design thesis. Such design projects are often partnered with live sites, organizations, and community groups. The program provides even international students opportunities to work on live projects in London. Notably, the program has an impressive list of guest lecturers and practicing architects, providing students the chance to gain insights from industry professionals. It also emphasizes on technical and sustainable specifications in buildings. The University of Westminster is a RIBA validated school, meaning the MArch program meets the professional standards of the Royal Institute of British Architects.
