Design Research Laboratory (MArch Architecture & Urbanism)

The DRL is one of the most recognised MArch graduate design studies in the world. Young architects come from around the world to participate in its collaborative design curriculum, which emphasises an open-source approach to developing new machinic and highly networked design tools, processes, forms and architectural proposals. The programme explores the design discourse and tools needed to capture, control and shape an endless ow of information within the distributed electronic realm of todays rapidly evolving digital design disciplines. Comprehensive design proposals are pursued by collective self-organised teams addressing common topics through shared information-based diagrams, data, models and scripts. The DRL also offers a variety of specialised workshops aimed at the development of expertise in a range of computational design and production systems, as well as seminar series on topics related to the current agenda. Entry requirements for the MArch (16 months): ve-year professional architecture degree (BArch / Diploma equivalent)

Emergent Technologies & Design (MArch/MSc)

The Emergent Technologies & Design programme is open to graduates in architecture or engineering who are interested in design that proceeds from innovative technologies and wish to develop skills and pursue knowledge in design research located in new production paradigms. Phase 1 of the programme consists of taught courses, studio workshops and projects, alongside supervised research within the studio. Phase 2 entails further supervised research and a design dissertation for the MSc or a design thesis for the MArch. The programme is focused on the concepts and convergent interdisciplinary effects of emergence on design and production technologies, and on developing these as creative inputs to new architectural design processes. The instruments of analysis and design in Emergent Technologies are computational processes. Entry requirements for the MArch (16 months): ve-year professional degree or diploma in architecture, engineering or other relevant disciplines; for the MSc (12 months): professional degree or diploma in architecture, engineering or other relevant disciplines.

Housing & Urbanism (MArch/MA)

The Housing and Urbanism programme applies architecture to the challenges of contemporary urban strategies. Todays metropolitan regions show tremendous diversity and complexity with signicant global shifts in the patterns of urban growth and decline. Architecture has a central role to play in this dynamic context, developing far-reaching strategies and generating novel urban clusters. This course focuses on important changes in the contemporary urban condition and investigates how architectural intelligence helps us to understand and respond to these trends. Offering a 12-month MA and a 16-month MArch, the course is balanced between cross-disciplinary research and design application. Students work is divided among three equally important areas: design workshops; lectures and seminars; and a written thesis for the MA or a design project for the MArch, which allow students to develop an extended and focused study within the broader themes of the programme. Entry requirements for the MA (12 months): Second Class or above Honours degree in architecture or a related discipline from a British university, or an overseas qualication of equivalent standard (from a course lasting not less than three years in a university or educational institution of university rank); for the MArch 16 months):ve-year professional degree in architecture or a related discipline.

Landscape Urbanism (MA)

Landscape Urbanism constitutes a collective endeavour to construct a mode of practice where the processes and techniques that have historically modelled the landscape are integrated into the domain of urbanism. The programme sets out to develop new systems that engage with the social and environmental conditions that continuously recongure the city today. Our methodology is by denition multidisciplinary. Expanding from the legacy of landscape design to consider the complexity of contemporary urban dynamics, it integrates knowledge and techniques from such disciplines as environmental engineering, urban strategy, landscape ecology, the development industry and architecture. The MA programme operates by synthesising the dynamic and temporal forces that shape contemporary urban landscape with the generative potentials of materials developed through abstract organisational systems. Entry requirements for the MA (12 months): professional degree or diploma in architecture/landscape architecture or urbanism or other relevant discipline.

Sustainable Environmental Design (MArch/MSc)

The conditions for a symbiotic relationship between buildings and the urban environments they form and occupy are the main concern of the SED masters programme. The dynamic energy exchanges characterising this relation foster distinct changes in the climates of cities, the environmental performance of buildings and the comfort and energy use of their inhabitants. Knowledge and understanding of the physical principles underlying these exchanges, along with the conceptual and computational tools to translate them into an ecological architecture and urbanism, form the core of the taught programme. This is structured in two consecutive phases. Phase 1 is common to MSc and MArch candidates and is organised around joint studio projects that are undertaken in teams combining both groups. Project work is supported by weekly lectures, research seminars and computer workshops. Phase 2 is devoted to research projects toward the MSc and MArch dissertations. MSc projects deal with the broader design applicability of the chosen research topics. MArch projects focus on a specic design application that must be developed in some detail. Entry requirements for the MArch (16 months): ve-year professional architecture degree (BArch/Diploma equivalent); for the MSc (12 months): professional degree or diploma in architecture, engineering or related disciplines.

History & Critical Thinking (MA)

History & Critical Thinking provides a platform for critical enquiry into theoretical debates and forms of architectural and urban practice. The aim is three-fold: to connect contemporary arguments and projects with a wider historical, cultural and political context; to produce knowledge which will relate to design and public cultures in architecture; to inquire into new forms of theoretical research and architectural practice. Central to the course is an emphasis on writing, primarily as practice of thinking. Different forms of writing such as essays, reviews, short commentaries, publications, interviews allow students to engage with diverse forms of inquiry and articulate the various aspects of their study. Conversations with writers, critics, journalists and editors expose the students to a diversity of perspectives and skills fostering the critical and effective role of writing in architecture. Students are encouraged to publish their work and to present it at conferences and seminars within and outside the school. Entry requirements for the MA (12 months): Second Class or above Honours degree in architecture or a related discipline from a British university, or an overseas qualication of equivalent standard (from a course lasting not less than three years in a university or educational institution of university rank).

Design & Make (MArch)

This 16-month MArch graduate design programme is based at the AAs Hooke Park, a working woodland in Dorset in the southwest of England, and is open to graduate students of architecture who wish to pursue studio- and workshopbased design and realisation of alternative rural architectures. On a yearly cycle, the programme designs and constructs experimental buildings at Hooke Park, in the process creating a new rural AA campus and showcase for ecologically sustainable design and construction. The two-phase, four-term course starts with a series of seminars to build a theoretical foundation, and a core studio in which students engage in relevant contemporary design practices. Workshop-based experimentation proceeds in parallel with studio-based design explorations. Design studios, planning submissions and on-site construction form the heart of AA D&Ms projectdriven pedagogy. Entry requirements for the MArch (Design & Make) (16 months): ve-year professional architecture degree (BArch/Diploma equivalent).

Projective Cities (Taught MPhil in Architecture)

Projective Cities is a taught MPhil programme targeting graduates and practitioners intending to pursue a substantial and original piece of individual research. Providing a unique framework, the programme posits the city as a critical site of new knowledge, speculation, and research. It is therefore dedicated to a research- and design-based analysis of and speculation on the contemporary city with two main ambitions: to develop what kind of project and research arises from architecture and architectural urbanism, and to redene the ambivalent notion of research in design by proposing new methodologies to synthesise theoretical and practical design research. The 20-month full-time programme is divided into a taught and a research phase of 30 weeks each. During the taught Phase I, interrelated theory seminars, design studios, and skill workshops provide the theoretical foundations and analytical research methods required to formulate a proposal for an integrated design and written dissertation project that will be completed under close supervision in Phase II. Entry requirement for the MPhil (20 months): four- or ve-year degree in architecture (BArch/Diploma or equivalent).

AA Graduate Diploma in Conservation of Historic Buildings

This two-year day-release programme leading to an AA Graduate Diploma is designed to provide a multi-faceted approach to historic buildings and their conservation. It is recognised as one of the leading courses of its kind, and many practitioners in the eld are former students. The course was set up in 1975 by the RIBA and COTAC. The overall aim is to study the practical conservation of buildings within a wider historical context, in order to encourage a broad-based and sensitive handling of issues relating to conservation and reuse. Based in the UK, the course nevertheless has an international dimension. The course studies basic attitudes to conservation, with the recognition, diagnosis and repair of building faults; traditional building materials and crafts, building archaeology, historic buildings legislation and building types from the early medieval period up to the seventeenth century. Entry requirements: Part 2 (RIBA/ARB) or equivalent recognised qualication in a related eld.

PhD Programme
The AA Schools PhD programme combines advanced research with a broader educational agenda, preparing graduates for practice in global academic and professional environments. The programme operates as an autonomous, cross-disciplinary unit supported by all of the AA Schools postgraduate departments. Current doctoral research encompasses topics of architectural theory and history, architectural urbanism, emergent technologies and design, and sustainable environmental design. PhD studies are full-time for the entire duration which is normally of some four calendar years. This starts with a preparatory period during which candidates attend taught courses and develop specialist research skills while preparing their PhD proposals under the guidance of two supervisors. Entry requirements: Applicants must hold a post-professional masters degree in their proposed area of PhD research. Applicants for PhD in Architectural Design must also hold a ve-year professional degree in architecture and will be expected to submit a design portfolio.

PhD in Architectural Design

The PhD in Architectural Design is a studio based option for architects with prior academic qualications and professional experience, with an interest in pursuing advanced design-based research and scholarship. This is a full-time, postprofessional research degree course that offers students an opportunity to make creative use of design within the scholarly tradition of doctoral research. Beginning in 201314 two distinct strands, each with their own teaching and learning models, will make up the programme: an existing Design Research strand that emphasises independent, student-led design research that builds upon a candidates prior practice and existing interests; and beginning in 201314 a new City-Architecture strand organised around monthly seminars structured so that participants in the programme undertake a collective, programme-wide design agenda focusing on architecture and the city. Design Research Strand Currently-enrolled students in the programme are already pursuing advanced, scholarly design research in relation to agendas established prior to their arrival in the programme, many of which relate to the current design research agendas of the AA Graduate School Programme. Current agendas include: the sonic characteristics of urban spaces and their manipulation, modelling and control; the fabrication of thresholds between internal and external environments; generative design processes related to the making of tall buildings; and the mathematical and computational modelling of built form. Students applying to this strand within the PhD in Design programme will normally be expected to work with a Programme Director or other senior academic staff member from the Graduate School, who serves as the lead Supervisor for the PhD. City Architecture Strand City Architecture aims to pursue a collective design agenda aimed at reassessing the relationship between

architecture and the city. The programme asks for an innovative and radical understanding of the discipline of architecture in light of the problems and questions that characterise the contemporary city, based on the assumption that today there is an urgent need to reunite architecture and urbanism through a reassessment of architecture as a disciplinary body of knowledge that is intimately connected with the development of the city. City Architecture sees the making of not only texts but also drawings as a design tool par excellence, and treats drawing as a critical tool for research. The goal is not to understand architectural knowledge as symptom of something else, but to use such knowledge as a research tool. The main difference between City Architecture and traditional PhD programmes is that this programme understands architecture rst and foremost as technique as a material practice and a social praxis. The programmes methodology will be largely based on attentive close reading of architecture through texts and analytical and interpretative drawings, for it is through the close reading of architectural elements in the form of either buildings or drawings that the social and political logic of the city reveals itself in all its concreteness. The programme is organised as a set of parallel activities: individual thesis, seminars and presentations and design seminars undertaken throughout the rst three years of study. This structure is meant to encourage as much as possible collective discussion among the participants. Entry requirements: Applicants must hold a post-professional masters degree in their proposed area of PhD research. Applicants for the PhD in Architectural Design must also hold a ve-year professional degree in architecture and will be expected to submit a design portfolio.

AA Interprofessional Studio (Postgraduate Diploma Spatial Performance & Design)

Spatial Performance and Design is a programme that operates in the in-between areas of art, architecture and performance, and is designed to appeal to professionals and students who would usually not have the opportunity to study at the AA. The course is a forum for discussion beyond the immediate scope of the studio and as an interdisciplinary project ofce realising creative, collaborative work. The intense, super-fast and almost impossible but in the end richly successful collaborations result in entirely unexpected and exciting realisations. Spatial Performance and Design offers a one-year full-time course of study or a two-year, part-time, two-daya-week option both leading to a post graduate diploma. Entry requirements: Second Class or above Honours degree in architecture or a related discipline from a British university, or an overseas qualication of equivalent standard (from a course lasting not less than three years in a university or educational institution of university rank).
