MArch, Architecture

The Master of Architecture (MArch) is a non-thesis degree and requires the completion of a minimum of 55 hours of coursework and a satisfactory comprehensive final examination. Holders of the Bachelor of Environmental Design (BED) degree from Texas A&M University and holders of other four-year pre-professional architectural degrees will enter the program directly, subject to admission approval by the department. Holders of other baccalaureate degrees will normally be required to complete a Career Change Program (a structured three-semester leveling sequence) to attain BED equivalency.

The Department of Architecture in the School of Architecture offers a program of graduate study intended to provide its graduates with the requisite educational background to enter the professional practice of architecture and its numerous variants and/or to prepare them for further graduate studies.
