Graduate Admissions
Taubman College offers two options to its Graduate Architecture Program.
2G Option
Applicants to the 2G Option should have a bachelor of science degree in architecture or its equivalent. Admitted 2G students begin in the fall term.
A student should have completed the following courses as part of their undergraduate degree in architecture. If any course deficiencies are found, the student must complete extra courses in addition to the regular master of architecture curriculum.
- 4 sequential architecture studio design courses (5-6 credits each course)
- 2 construction courses (6 credits)
- 2 structure courses (6 credits)
- 2 environmental technology courses (6 credits)
- 2 history of architecture courses (6 credits)
- 2 design fundamentals courses (6 credits)
3G Option
Applicants to the 3G Option have received an undergraduate degree in a discipline other than architecture. Admission is usually limited to the summer half-term. This 3+ year program draws upon the diverse backgrounds of the students to encourage a multi-faceted discussion of architecture. The first year builds a foundation that drives the following years. A student should have completed the following prerequisite courses for credit at an accredited institution and received a passing grade to be eligible to apply to the program. Online courses are not accepted.
- 2 studio art courses (6 credits)
- 1 calculus course (4 credits)
- 1 physics course (lecture and lab) (4 credits)
3G students join their peers in the 2G track for the second and third year. Both options culminate in a master of architecture degree.
