Re: university of utah school of architecture and planning
The mission of the College of Architecture + Planning at the University of Utah is to nurture a culture of discovery, design and innovation in our designed world rooted in an ethic of care, community and commitment. Master of Architecture The Master of Architecture (M.Arch) is a first accredited professional degree that provides with a comprehensive education leading to the practice of architecture. It is designed to allow opportunities to prepare for specialization in the field in the areas of architectural design and representation, historic preservation, architectural technologies and building performance, digital fabrication, architectural history, society and culture. With this the College offers several dual-degrees and certificate programs which may set students apart in a competitive employment market. Program Requirements The graduate program is characterized by choice and flexibility. The student assembles a program tailored to his/her individual interests. The curriculum is composed of nine academic areas in which courses are offered in a session (7-week) or semester (15-week) format. The student selects from course areas to meet required semester hours. Extra work in an academic area is applied as an elective. Please note the following guidelines for structuring a program: 1. Required courses must be taken in all of the academic areas to fulfil the requirements for graduation, including studio, communications, structures, technology, history, theory, professional practice, electives, and master’s project. 2. A semester of studio must be included in the first fall semester of the program. 3. All four session courses from the Professional Practice academic area are required and are co-requisite with the Final Studio course. 4. Final Studio is a one-semester course and must be completed during the final semester of the program. 5. Students must complete the equivalent of three semester courses per semester in order to demonstrate progress towards graduation. (2 session courses equal one semester course.) Progress at less than this rate without prior written permission of the chair will result in dismissal from the program.
