Course Overview

The programme goes beyond the professional body criteria, giving you a stimulating and dynamic educational experience of architecture at postgraduate level. You’ll study in a design studio-led research environment and you will be able to create architectural designs that meet necessary technical requirements while still having aesthetic appeal.

There are fantastic international opportunities – our students have undertaken fieldwork in Reykjavik, Istanbul, Amsterdam and Barcelona. There’s also an annual New York study visit sponsored by Ibstock Brick.
You’ll have opportunities to take part in research projects and our connections will help your work get noticed. MArch graduate Thomas Cotton had his final thesis project published on New York’s Museum of Modern Art website for the exhibition Uneven Growth.

  • You’ll benefit from our network of architectural practices and creative organisations and gain opportunities from the School’s links with more than 100 companies.
  • Birmingham School of Architecture and Design is highly respected and has a rich history of providing a challenging and stimulating education. It celebrated its centenary in 2009.
  • The School has a long history of delivering live projects where you can work with industry partners and real communities to develop experience in complex urban challenges.
  • The course welcomes students from other UK schools of architecture alongside our own graduates, resulting in a dynamic body of high-calibre students with varied experiences.
  • We mentor candidates for various national student awards or extra-curricular projects including the Deutsche Bank Award for Creative Enterprise, RIBA President’s Medal and Architect Journal’s Student Prize.

Entry Requirement 

Academic Requirements:

Evidence of satisfactory completion of at least nine months of practical training is normally required for acceptance on the full-time course.

Should applicants have difficulty in accessing conventional practical experience, the admissions team will consider evidence of initiative in finding alternative experience, through voluntary work, competitions, work in associated fields of the construction and design industries and self-generated work.

In the part-time mode, your practical training experience may be counted during the first year of attendance if you have studied your BA part-time. If you are part-time you should be employed by an architectural practice.

A diverse portfolio demonstrating academic and professional experience along with a critical self appraisal.
