Entry requirements

The program is especially suitable for those applicants who plan to develop a career in architectural research but will serve equally well those future practicing architects who wish to add a specialization to their general professional training. Applicants with a bachelor’s degree in a non-design field will also be considered but may be required to take up remedial coursework upon admission. The nature and extent of such remedial coursework will be determined on a case-by-case basis for each student upon admission. Applicants are expected to have an outstanding undergraduate record.

Tuition is charged per credit, so the total depends on the modules you register for each year. Current fees are listed in the official fee schedule.

Graduate applications use one online graduate application (gradapp.gatech.edu) for all programmes and campuses; deadlines vary by programme and are published on each programme page.
