Architecture, Master of (MArch) at Newcastle University

Entry requirements

A 2:2 honours degree, or international equivalent, in Architecture. We prefer this to be recognised by the Architects Registration Board (ARB) as successful completion of the Royal Institute of British Architects (RIBA) Part I . You will need to submit a portfolio and may need to attend an interview. We will also consider applicants on an individual basis with a lower or non-accredited qualification. Whilst you can enter our MArch (Part II) programme without previously passing RIBA (Part I), if you wish to practice in the UK you will need to satisfy the requirements of the RIBA by passing the RIBA Part I and Part III exams. Part III can be taken here in the School of Architecture, Planning and Landscape and is a part time placement year programme. Newcastle University Graduates entry requirements If you are a Newcastle BA Hons Architecture (K100) graduate with a 2:2 degree or above (including a 2:2 in the design module ARC3001), you will be eligible for an automatic offer for our MArch programme. Newcastle graduates are still required to formally apply through the Apply to Newcastle Portal , but will not be required to submit a portfolio or attend an interview. The automatic offer will be for the academic year commencing 12 months after your graduation, i.e. if you graduate in July 2024 your Master of Architecture offer would be to commence study in September 2025. This provides the opportunity to develop your experience in professional practice.
