The Master of Architectural Design (MArchDes) is a two-year, full-time professional programme,
with some of the modules provided in cooperation with the Department of Urban
Planning and Design (UPD). Upon successful completion of the programme, an international
Master of Architectural Design (MArchDes) degree is awarded from the University of
Liverpool, United Kingdom. Our University of Liverpool-accredited postgraduate programmes
are registered with the Chinese Ministry of Education (MoE) system.

This programme prepares students for two main purposes: firstly, to work as fully qualified
professional architects; secondly to conduct independent research, qualifying for further
PhD-level studies. The programme is designed to deliver all the learning outcomes as
defined by the Royal Institute of British Architects (RIBA) to qualify for ‘RIBA Part 2’, which
is the second out of three stages in the formal educational process required to register
as a professional architect in the United Kingdom. The programme offers an international
perspective, at the same time enabling the students to grapple with the demands of rapid
modernisation in China.

You will find the Master of Architectural Design Prospectus online on the department's website.

Application deadline for international applicants is June 30.
