The MA Architecture Programme (ARB/RIBA Part II) at the Royal College of Art is a research-driven, studio-based post-graduate education that critically tests the making of architecture and spatial practice. The program supports the development of each student’s personal position and practices relative to the field. The program fosters an inclusive, critical, and responsive, context in which architecture is explored as a medium, rather than a goal in itself. We are attentive to urgent political, social, and ecological questions, which allows us to interrogate the contexts and processes of architectural production and support our students to redefine practice.
Royal Institute of British Architects (RIBA) part II and Architects Registration Board (ARB) validated since 1983.
This research-driven, studio-based post-graduate program offers a unique opportunity to critically test architecture and spatial practice.
As part of our curriculum, we tackle pressing political, social, and ecological questions, empowering you to redefine your practice and contribute to positive change in the world. Together, we'll explore global imbalances, inequalities, and environmental challenges, allowing you to shape a future where architecture is pivotal in creating sustainable and meaningful spaces.
We offer a vibrant platform to discuss contemporary architectural issues, strongly focusing on real-world dynamics. Engage in inspiring tutorials, thought-provoking lectures, and hands-on workshops. Embrace reflective research to deepen your understanding and transform your approach to architecture. A teaching team of diverse practitioners will guide your studies, each offering unique perspectives and valuable industry connections.
We host a range on online and on-campus open days as well as recruitment event in cities around the world. These events can include 1-to-1 meets and portfolio advice, informal chats, presentations and sessions with staff, students and alumni. Check the Check the RCA event webpage for details of upcoming events.
Next on-campus open day: Saturday 27 January 2024.

"I mainly expected this experience to help me develop my architectural skills, however, it has given me much more than just that. It has transformed the way I think as an individual as well as an architect and helped me make decisions about my future career." Ameneh Solati, MA Architecture, 2015 -17
