Master of Science in Environmental Architecture

Environmental Architecture

The Master of Science in Environmental Architecture course is designed to provide graduate architects with a sound training in state of the art principles of environmental architecture taking into account the art, science, technology and philosophy of ecologically sustainable building design.

A number of study streams will be available for architects with an interest in certain specialised areas.

Some units are available as short courses via RISE.

Career Prospects

A global shortage of architects with the training to properly design imaginative solutions for ecologically sustainable buildings means employment prospects will be high for graduates from the program.
