As a professional architect, you may participate in a wide range of design activities, depending on your areas of interest and expertise including house, public building and community design; material innovation, spatial organization and urban design; or historic restoration and adaptation to new buildings and theoretical projects. The School’s Master of Architecture program is fully accredited by the Canadian Architectural Certification Board (CACB). The entire six-year program consists of two years of general studies at a recognized university, followed by two years of undergraduate study at the School of Architecture (BEDS) and two years of graduate study at the School of Architecture (MArch).
