Introduction
The Ph.D. in Architecture program supports original interdisciplinary research in areas including the history and theory of the built environment, building technology, climate-conscious design, media and computation, urban studies, and spatial justice. With a commitment to fostering intellectual independence and promoting research excellence, the program prepares students for academic careers or leadership positions in areas such as curation, publication, and the building industry.
To be admitted into the Ph.D. program applicants are required to have obtained a master's degree and demonstrate research capabilities. Admission to the program requires support from a supervisor within the School of Architecture. Applicants should identify and contact potential supervisors before the admission deadline in order to discuss the suitability of their research interests.
