Master [Architectural History] From University of Virginia

The master’s degree program equips students with a sound background in architectural history, including its principles and interpretation, during a two-year course of study culminating in a thesis.

Course offerings focus on the following areas of architectural history:

• American
• European
• Mediterranean
• Non-western
• Theory

The degree requires a minimum of 36 credits at the graduate level.

The degree requirements should be considered as a minimum core program. Thus, the student should expect to take more than the required minimum courses during the normal four semesters of residency usually totaling 48 credits. Qualified students interested in historic preservation can complete the requirements for the Certificate in Historic Preservation and the Master of Architectural History within a two-year period.
