MArch Architecture (ARB/RIBA Part 2)

  • DeadlineStudy Details:

    MArch 2 years full-time

Masters Degree Description

The Architecture MArch at The Bartlett is a leading, professionally accredited Part 2 (ARB/RIBA) course that develops students’ advanced design, technical, and theoretical skills, supporting their progression towards professional registration with the Architects Registration Board (ARB) in the UK.

The Architecture MArch (ARB/RIBA Part 2) is a professionally accredited two-year course offering advanced architectural education in design, technology, environment, professional practice, history, and theory.

Students give content and context to their academic work by writing about architecture, designing architecture, and scrutinising it as a discipline, practice, culture, and career choice. They strengthen their core skills in design, technology, history and theory, and professional studies, working closely with world-class tutors, academics, and practitioners.

We believe architecture has a vital role to play in addressing today’s most pressing challenges — by breaking disciplinary boundaries, proposing alternative socio-political, ecological and material systems, and harnessing new technologies to improve both the built and natural environments on which we depend.

Entry Requirements

A minimum of an upper second-class degree in architecture from a UK university or an overseas qualification of an equivalent standard. It is also expected that all candidates have at least one year of professional work experience, taken after completing their undergraduate degree. If you are currently completing a UK undergraduate architecture programme, which is accredited by the Architects Registration Board (ARB) or the Royal Institute of British Architects (RIBA), and your programme contains a professional placement or placements lasting a minimum of 6 months, we will consider your application, providing you are averaging an upper second-class degree. Upon reviewing your application, we may ask you to submit a portfolio of your design work. Please do not send or upload your work unless it has been requested.
