Architecture University of Kent

Overview

The architecture profession in the UK is undergoing radical transformation. This two-year full time MArch, will prepare you to engage with the built environment in a multitude of ways. You will also gain the essential Part 2 requirement to become a registered architect in the UK.

Whether you want to design new buildings, give new lease of life to existing ones, develop urban spaces, landscapes or interiors, you will gain the critical design and creative thinking skills to change the world around us.

Working in smaller collaborative groups, there’s a boutique style to the way we teach and work at Kent. Our programme prioritises hands on-learning, with a focus on employability. You will work on live projects, participate in workshops and design-led events, and interact with industry practitioners.

Our recently-refurbished creative spaces provide flexible and adaptable digital crit spaces, and spacious studios where you will collaborate with peers.

You will learn from expert practitioners and professors including Henrik Schoenefeldt, Dr Giridharan Renganathan and Dr Ambrose Gillick, host of the popular A is for Architecture podcast.

You will consider the legislative and regulatory structures around architecture as well as the theory and history. You’ll also explore more current issues around environmental sustainability and the impact of technology on design.
