Master's Degree

Program Summary

Architecture degree combines deep respect for tradition with a clear focus on the future. It's designed for students who are passionate about caring for Country, driven by environmental and social responsibility, and ready to act as changemakers in the built environment.

Unlike other programs in NSW, you’ll spend the majority of your time immersed in studio-based learning. You’ll work on diverse design briefs and have access to a range of exciting elective projects that allow you to explore different facets of architectural practice. We’ve built a learning experience specifically tailored to our vibrant student body, encouraging collaboration and creative exchange through our:

  • Design Studio

  • Fabrication Workshop

  • Makerspace

The aim is to develop architects who are curious, flexible, and ready to tackle the evolving challenges of the profession. With opportunities to engage in both collaborative and independent work—including an optional final-year project of your own design—you’ll be supported to shape your own identity as a designer.

Ranked in the world’s top 150 for Architecture and the Built Environment, and with 93.6% of our graduates securing full-time roles within four months, our program sets you up for a meaningful and successful career.
