MASTER OF ARCHITECTURE FOLIO 2015

Welcome to the Azrieli School of Architecture & Urbanism at Carleton University. Our Master of Architecture program brings together academic, professional, and public audiences dedicated to testing the limits of design culture today. Located in Ottawa, Canada, a national and G20 capital, the Azrieli School is advancing architecture in its civic, regional, and global complexities. Through cutting-edge studios, workshops with leading international architects, and innovative thesis projects, our students are thinking about and designing for the built environment of tomorrow. At the Azrieli School, we are shaping a provocative and socially-minded space for design and debate. We hope that you will join this ever-changing experiment.

10 11Introduction

The Master of Architecture (M.Arch) at Carleton University is an

accredited professional degree preparing future architects for a

culturally rich, technologically innovative, and globalized world.

We recognize that students come from a wide range of academic

and life experiences. Our two-year, 8.0-credit curriculum

is aimed at applicants holding a four-year undergraduate

degree or its equivalent in architecture. Our three-year,

13.0-credit curriculum is intended for individuals from diverse

backgrounds wishing to pursue careers in architecture. Both

streams lead to the same degree. All students share advanced

studios, opportunities to study abroad or with visiting critics,

graduate seminars, and an exciting range of ways to advance

the thesis project.

12 13M.Arch Work

At Carleton, we are opening ways to engage

the world at large. To attract imaginative

and curious students, we offer generous

scholarships and teaching assistantships.

To inspire creativity, we provide a host of

fabrication workshops, digital tools, computer

labs, and multimedia studios. To enrich your

education, we bring leading international

architects to teach design studios. To expose

you to new architecture cultures, we host a

semester-long Directed Studio Abroad – in

2016, it will take place in Lisbon. Plus, during

their very first year, students in the three-year

M.Arch will take a funded trip to a major world

city – in 2016, the group will go to Barcelona.

All students take studios fostering thoughtful

reflection on society and the contemporary

built environment. Courses in the history

and theory of architecture, advanced building

systems, and digital design expand the means

of critical inquiry. A final thesis project allows

innovative contributions to architectural

and humanistic research. These spaces of

exploration encourage you to advance critical

positions on design, culture, technology, and

the city.

20 21Directed Studio Abroad

The Directed Studio Abroad (DSA) is among

the highlights of the Master of Architecture

at Carleton. For an entire term, students

study with leading local architects in a global

city. It is an extraordinary opportunity to

be immersed in diverse cultural contexts

while engaging new ideas on contemporary

architecture.

The 2016 Directed Studio Abroad will be led

by Diogo Lopes and Patrícia Barbas in Lisbon.

Since 2006, Barbas Lopes Arquitectos has

produced award-winning public and private

buildings, single-family houses, interior

renovations, and exhibition designs. In

2013, the office’s reconversion of the Thalia

Theater in Lisbon was nominated for the

2013 European Union Prize for Contemporary

Architecture. The DSA will be held at the

Universidade Autónoma de Lisboa. Fieldtrips,

visits to local offices, and studio reviews with

Portuguese architects will enrich the Lisbon

experience.
