The design disciplines – Architecture and Interior Design – teach us to understand and to shape the space we live in: rooms, buildings, cities. These disciplines are old, among the first activities of civilization itself.

They are also new, requiring advanced knowledge and skills to serve contemporary culture. The design disciplines operate at many levels of thought and concern.

On one hand they are very practical, dealing with a host of concrete realities; on the other they are highly conceptual, having to do with meaning and society’s highest aspirations.

The context for design at The University of Texas at Arlington focuses on the contemporary urban condition, a viewpoint especially appropriate for a school at the heart of a diverse, expanding and internationally oriented region like Dallas/Fort Worth.

The curriculum of the Master of Architecture degree program offered by University of Texas Arlington is coordinated with the Bachelor of Science in Architecture curriculum degree to form a six-year professional program.

There are three distinct programs of study in architecture, which provide options to graduate students with different backgrounds and needs. Path A requires approximately 3-1/2 years, Path B two years, and Path C one year.
