About<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The Department of Architecture offers both the BArch and MArch degrees, professional architecture programs designed to prepare students for careers in private practice, nonprofit organizations or other careers operating in architecture and its allied fields.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

As a National Architecture Accrediting Board program with accredited degrees in architecture, we provide nationally recognized, professional, skills-oriented Bachelor of Architecture and Master of Architecture degree programs. Both are driven by a strong core curriculum and opportunities to enroll in a wide variety advanced elective design studios featuring topics such as historic preservation, high-performance and sustainable design, and the poetics of form. Students who earn either the BArch or MArch will be eligible for licensure in Wisconsin and across the country.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Architects trained in the UWM BArch and MArch programs will be able to enter professional practice and design buildings and other physical elements of the built environment. Graduates will understand how their efforts and interventions affect the built environment and the people who use it. Graduates of both programs will have the skills needed to critically evaluate socio-cultural opportunities, technical options and design approaches in order to create high performing buildings for everyone.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
