Master of Science [M.S] [Architectural Studies] From Washington University

The MSAS program is open to students who hold an undergraduate degree in architecture, as well as to students who are already enrolled in another degree program in the Graduate School of Architecture & Urban Design.

Academic advisors help each student craft a unique curriculum that builds toward individual research goals, ultimately culminating in a thesis project. Students are able to take courses both within the Sam Fox School and in other departments across the University, allowing them to construct a broad foundation for their research. The thesis project allows students to conduct research on a wide variety of topics in architectural pedagogy, history, and theory, and is the apex of the program.
