Architecture Masters Preparation (AMP 1 & AMP 2) Undergraduate Program
This program is for applicants who have a recognized three- or four-year undergraduate degree in either a non-design discipline (such as Fine Art, Engineering, Science, Philosophy, Theatre, Psychology, Music, Film, English, History, Art History, Urban Studies, Geography, Commerce, etc.)
OR
a design-related discipline (such as Interior Design, Landscape Architecture, Industrial Design, etc.) and wish to eventually apply to the graduate Masters of Architecture Program.



GENERAL ELIGIBILITY

All applicants must meet the general admission and entrance requirements set by the Department of Architecture. The entry level into the program will be determined by the Department of Architecture Admissions Committee’s evaluation of the individual’s application and supporting documents.

For applicants who have little or no formal design education with a minimum three-year undergraduate bachelors degree in any disciplinary field from a recognized college or university. A minimum GPA of 3.0 or equivalent B in the last two full years (60 credit hours) of study is required. Upon successful completion of this two-year program students will be eligible to receive an Environmental Design undergraduate degree.


ARCHITECTURE MASTERS PREPARATION TWO (AMP 2)

(For those with a background in one of the following: Interior Design, Interior Architecture, Landscape Architecture or Environmental Design-Interior Environments Option or Landscape + Urbanism Option)

Evaluation is based on the student's progress in either the one or two-year Architecture Masters Preparation Program, as evidenced in a portfolio submission, GPA and a Faculty of Graduate Studies application.
