The Master of Advanced Architectural Studies (MAAS) at North Carolina State University's College of Design is a three-semester, research-based innovative programme for committed, self-directed students who have earned a professional degree in architecture or a degree in a related discipline.

It provides opportunities for specialised study in leading-edge areas of the built environment and a platform to explore solutions to the crucial issues of the 21st century.

Students can choose a research subject and topic as part of their application, working closely with advisors to design a self-directed programme and work with faculty who are experts in the field.

Student-led opportunities provide settings to share current research. Teaching and research assistantships are available on a competitive basis.

The School of Architecture has four primary focus areas of research and specialised studies – city design, energy and technology, history and theory and public interest design.

They address the design of sustainable, regenerative, equitable and inclusive cities, suburbs and buildings and the means to interpret and assess built environments.
