Architecture - Professional (M.Arch.)

Program Description

The Master of Architecture (M.Arch.) Professional (Non-Thesis) offered by the Peter Guo-hua Fu School of Architecture in the Faculty of Engineering is a course-based program that emphasizes comprehensive and career-oriented learning opportunities. The program's objective is to equip students with skills in project evaluation, critical reading, and analysis to pursue professional opportunities (or potentially continue their studies).

Unique Program Features

  • Our program is accredited by the Canadian Architectural Certification Board (CACB) and is recognized as accredited by the National Council of Architectural Registration Boards (NCARB) in the U.S.;
  • The School operates a number of important auxiliary facilities that include workshops, research labs and other resources that support teaching and learning, and research;
  • Students benefit from access to The Blackader-Lauterman Library of Architecture and Art, the John Bland Canadian Architecture Collection, The Architecture Slide Library, and The Orson Wheeler Architectural Model Collection;

Note: While graduation from a CACB-accredited program does not assure registration, the accrediting process is intended to verify that each accredited program substantially meets those standards that, as a whole, comprise an appropriate education for an architect.

University-Level Admission Requirements

  • An eligible Bachelor's degree with a minimum 3.0 GPA out of a possible 4.0 GPA
  • English-language proficiency

Each program has specific admission requirements including required application documents. Please visit the program website for more details.
