课程设置
This 60 week course is structured over two consecutive academic years each of 30 weeks in its 'extended full-time mode'. MA Architecture: Cities and Innovation is credit rated at 180 credits, and comprises two units. Unit One (60 credits) lasts 20 weeks. Unit Two (120 credits) runs for 10 weeks in the first year and 30 weeks in the second year

Both units must be passed in order to achieve the MA, but the classification of your MA award derives from your mark for Unit Two only

You are expected to commit 30 hours per week to your studies, within which your taught input will normally be scheduled over three days. The course has been designed in this way to enable you to pursue your studies whilst also undertaking part-time employment, internships or caring responsibilities.

Unit 1: Methodologies for Architectural Engagement (60 Credits)

Unit 1 consists of a series of projects intended to allow you to experiment with multidisciplinary approaches, as a means to develop your own design process, and also to test methodologies which can engage the public in architecture and spatial practice: approaches that expand and challenge the conventional role of the architect. These are tested and refined through design propositions. Through this process you are introduced to a variety of research methods and issues relevant to the discipline, which are then directly implemented in the creation/realisation of design work. While developing work for Unit 1 you will be researching and securing an industry placement to be undertaken in Unit 2.

Unit 2: Design Research in Architectural Practice (60 credits)

The unit begins with your Industry Placement. Working with your advisor you will engage with your chosen practice in order to analyse the ways in which the nature of the practice informs their projects, as well as simultaneously researching and developing potential opportunities for your own self-directed design project. Following your placement, you will begin on your Major Project. You will define your own brief, based on research and analysis of a chosen site, and develop a schematic design proposal which will be resolved in Unit 4.

Unit 3: Innovating in Architectural Practice (60 Credits)

This unit is integrally linked to Unit 2. In this Unit you will continue to work on your Major Project, resolving it as an architectural proposal and, if appropriate implementing aspects of this proposal on site and/or with collaborators and partners.

Industry collaborations

Working with paying clients on live briefs will give you valuable commercial experience which may mean your work being taken forward for production or, if so desired, in the purchase of your intellectual property. All paid projects are conducted within a carefully developed legal framework, which includes student agreements to protect your work and help you realise its commercial value.

Once you’ve graduated, you may be picked as part of a small team to work on a live creative brief, organised by our Business and Innovation department, under the supervision of an experienced tutor. This can be a valuable first step in working professionally in a chosen discipline and has resulted in graduates being hired by clients.
