Description of ProgramGraduate degrees in Architecture (M.S., Ph.D. and Ed.D.) are for students who want to pursue a research-based career in architecture, such as teaching or research-based design work. The accredited professional degree (M.Arch.) is for students who want to become a professional architect. The Master of Science is a research-oriented program. In addition to the specialization in Interior Design, students can pursue an area of study from a variety of options (the faculty areas of expertise are listed below). Applicants must have an undergraduate degree in architecture, interior design, or a closely related field. Joint master's programs are also offered with business (M.B.A.) and community and regional planning (M.C.R.P.). The Ph.D. and Ed.D. in educational studies specializing in architecture education is available through the Department of Educational Administration. It is jointly administered by the College of Architecture and the College of Education and Human Sciences. Applicants must have an undergraduate degree in architecture or a related discipline and a research-based graduate degree. See the Educational Administration graduate program summary for more information. The College of Architecture is headquartered in Architecture Hall. Constructed in the early 1890s and designated as the university library in 1894, Architecture Hall is the oldest and most distinctive of the occupied structures on the University of Nebraska-Lincoln City Campus. Architecture Hall provides students with an outstanding library and laboratories for computing, photography, woodwork, and metalwork. |
