Master of Architecture (Professional)

Would you like to become a registered architect? Have you already completed an undergraduate degree in architecture? The Master of Architecture (Professional) provides you with an advanced knowledge of architectural and urban design issues in New Zealand. Together with the three-year Bachelor of Architectural Studies, it forms a five-year package that prepares you to become a registered architect and that reflects an internationally recognised model of delivery now being pioneered in New Zealand by Unitec.

Perfect your understanding of architectural theory, architectural technology, digital fabrication and architectural business management. Explore at a postgraduate level what it takes to create architectural works of merit and value, and learn to incorporate innovative design research into your architecture practice.

Develop the ability to promote sustainable and ethical approaches to architecture and development, and to collaborate effectively with different disciplines on architectural design projects. You also further your ability to critically reflect on your own work, and that of others.
