Master of Architecture

Tuition fees are 230,000 HKD per year.

CUHK's Master of Architecture is a two-year, 52-unit full-time professional programme run by the School of Architecture within the Faculty of Social Science, continuing the design-studio-centred training of the School's undergraduate Architectural Studies programme into professional-level practice, theory, technology and visual communication. Admission requires a pre-professional architecture degree, such as CUHK's own BSSc in Architectural Studies, in addition to the Graduate School's general requirements, and applicants must also apply directly through the School of Architecture's own online platform alongside the Graduate School application. The programme forms part of the pathway toward professional architectural registration in Hong Kong.
