- Description
- RIT’s NAAB-accredited master of architecture program provides a well-balanced education that integrates design, technology, and research with sustainability to prepare graduates to enter the modern field of architecture. This program offers an immersive approach to investigating the complexity of designing buildings with people, space, and the environment in mind. You will learn how to design with context and substance in areas such as positive energy, performance building, climate-responsive designs, passive resiliency, and more. You will engage in a comprehensive curriculum that covers a diverse range of courses like sustainability, technology, and urbanism along with in-depth classes that explore integrated building systems, urban planning, industrial ecology, and more. You also have the flexibility to choose electives from other subject areas. This program is available in a traditional on-campus setting or through a fully online format and it provides advanced standing or standard admission tracks for both settings. For students with previous experience and an undergraduate degree in architecture, the advanced standing track is the preferred pathway to completion. For those with no prior experience or background in architecture, the standard admissions pathway provides the additional background courses you need for success in the program.
