The Master's in Architecture at Oxford Brookes University is a challenging 12-month course over three semesters. We set up a playground for students to experiment and speculate on personal ideas and the purpose of architecture.

The course cultivates new ways of thinking about architecture, exploring architecture beyond the commonplace and conventional.

Multiple mediums of experimentation and representation are explored – from collage, drawing and object-making to film, animation and AI.

Learning through experimentation and guided practice facilitates the construction of imaginative and critically reflective projects, which expand on current architectural thinking whilst enabling students to flourish in new fields of interest.

The Master's in Architecture immerses students in a creative learning environment, with its own dedicated studio for the concentrated unfolding of individual projects continually supported by academics, professionals and invited specialists.

Through accumulation and evolution, provocative architectural stances are generated that lead towards a final major project defined by the student's own set of ideas.

An exhibition of student work showcases the year and provides an excellent opportunity to curate and share work with a wider audience.

The course provides a unique environment for professionals who want to expand their current practice creatively and critically as well as for those who wish to build their knowledge and portfolio towards a PhD.

Applications to this course have now closed.
