    Master of Architecture

    Masters (Coursework)

    <p>The UNSW Master of Architecture gives you a well-rounded architectural education to prepare you for a varied and fulfilling career in the profession. This two-year, full-time program builds on the foundations of the Bachelor of Architectural Studies.

    Entry Requirements

    Entry requirements

    You will need to have completed a nationally accredited undergraduate degree (or equivalent) in architecture with grades at a consistent credit level (65 WAM) or higher. If you don't meet the entry requirements, you may be able to demonstrate work experience combined with undergraduate studies in architecture instead.

    If you study the UNSW Bachelor of Interior Architecture (Honours) you can be eligible for the Master of Architecture if you undertake the architecture elective pathway and achieve an overall WAM of 65. However, if you've never studied architecture at a tertiary level, you should consider applying for the Bachelor of Architectural Studies.

    Bachelor of Interior Architecture (Honours) graduates who do not meet the above may be considered after they have obtained five years of work experience in an architectural office or equivalent. Work experience will be individually assessed based on the following submission:

    • A logbook of a minimum of 5 years full-time work of the equivalent (completed after their bachelor's degree)
    • A referee report from the employer
    • A portfolio of work (including engagement with architectural construction specifically)

    • Applicants who have completed the Bachelor of Architectural Studies

      , opens in a new window
      (or equivalent) but do not meet the entry requirements specified above may be considered after they have obtained work experience in an architectural office.

      Work experience will be individually assessed based on the following submission:

      • A logbook record of a minimum 12 months full-time work or the equivalent
      • A referee report from the employer
      • A portfolio of the work undertaken during this period.

      graduates will meet entry requirements for the Master of Architecture if they complete the architecture elective pathway in the Bachelor of Interior Architecture (Honours) degree.

      Students will need to complete the following courses as part of this pathway and achieve an overall WAM of 65. These courses will count as electives in their Bachelor of Interior Architecture program:

      • ARCH1311 Architectural Studio 5
      • ARCH1302 Architectural Studio 6
      • ARCH1261 Structures and Construction 2
      • ARCH1322 Architectural History and Theory 3
      • ARCH1361 Architectural Science and Building Environment 2
    Portfolio requirement

    If you completed your undergraduate architecture degree at an international university, you must provide a portfolio of design work. The portfolio must:

    • include sample works from various stages of your undergraduate degree and any professional work
    • have drawings and/or images accompanied with text to explain the projects
    • be in a digital format.

    • Good portfolio content demonstrates:

      1. The issues the design wants to solve. For example: societal inequality, environmental constraints, economic conditions, pollution.
      2. The opportunities the design wants to expand. For example: local resources, natural light, public transportation.
      3. The decision-making process that led to the final outcome.
      4. The final design product and outcome presented with appropriate sets of drawings such as plans, sections, elevations, perspectives, and pictures from physical models.
      5. Technical understanding underpinning the design, that is, the structure, construction, and materials chosen.

      Only if all these points are clearly explained it is possible for us to assess the 'thinking' behind your work. These points can be presented through site analysis, development diagrams, and technical drawings.

    • A site analysis will show the problems and the opportunities in the site where a project is developed.

      A good site analysis uses many drawings to show the background information that informed the decision-making process of a project - for example, sun-path, wind directions, infrastructures available, population type, physical constraints, etc. A good site analysis will show problems and site characteristics that your design wants to solve or address.

    • A development diagram shows how the final version of the building or infrastructure has been developed. These diagrams need to convey why you chose to design the building in that way.

    • Technical drawings show how the projects can be built. These drawings explain how the building stands up, and how the building is constructed.

    • The final design product needs to be displayed appropriately with all sets of essential drawings to show the qualitative value of each project.

      Plans, sections, elevations, perspectives need to be legible, neat, and beautifully descriptive. Pictures from physical models can also be included to improve the tridimensional value and materiality of each design.

    • A good portfolio presentation involves curation, organisation and communication.

    Curation
    Show only your best work - don't include everything. Aim to create a graphically beautiful document with one consistent graphic style.

    Organisation
    Put your most recent work first. Make it clear which projects were academic, and which projects were professional. Remember to mention your contribution to group and professional projects.

    Communication
    The images and drawings should speak for themselves, and the accompanying written descriptions should be succinct. The text, images and drawings must be clearly visible.

    • Use more pages rather than clutter less pages
    • Edit professional project drawings to match your portfolio's graphic style
    • Avoid using bright colours for text, or placing text on detailed or contrasting backgrounds.
