The one year full-time, or two year part-time, MArch degree (a practice-based postgraduate research degree) will provide
current BArch graduates with a higher-level qualification that is aligned with current SACAP registration requirements, a route for furthering PhD studies while providing greater opportunities for external examination, successful tendering and contract research. It will also make a substantial contribution to the record of architectural practice in South Africa.

Prospective students, with at least 10 years’ of practice experience, will undergo a selection process that will be based on a motivational proposal submitted to the Department of Architecture.
