Why choose this program?

In the Master of Architecture program, you will select courses in design, humanities, and technology, plus electives (including the School's famous Free Lab) that support your individual interests.

 The co-op work term enables you to work anywhere in the world. The design thesis gives you the opportunity to focus on a significant topic.

Careers

After receiving a professional architecture degree, a MArch graduate typically works in an architectural office and may do professional examinations two years later to become a registered architect. Most of our MArch graduates pursue careers in architectural practice.

Financial information

At Dalhousie, we want our students to focus on their studies, rather than worry about their personal finances. We offer competitive tuition rates and funding programs to support graduate students in almost all of our degree programs.

Program options

The Master of Architecture program consists of seven core courses, four electives, an eight-month co-op work term, and an eight-month design thesis that is initiated by the student and supervised by a faculty member. 

All graduate programs at Dalhousie are collaboratively delivered by a home Faculty and the Faculty of Graduate Studies.
