he programme is delivered in two stages:

Stage 1 has taught and project modules for which 120 credits are available.

The course shares 60 credits of core taught modules with a suite of architectural science masters. These modules provide a grounding in architectural science, while placing this in the context of sustainable development and environmental performance of buildings.

Alongside this core set of modules, 60 credits of modules reinforce this teaching with a focus on the climatic environment, the internal building environment and the passive design strategies as well as by providing the opportunity to apply the ideas taught in class to problems which, whilst not real, exercise a similar range of skills to a real problem.

Stage 2 has one dissertation module, for which 60 credits are available.

Full time students take stages 1 and 2 in one year. Part-time students take stage 1 in either two or three years, depending on the pathway for which they are enrolled, and undertake stage 2 at the end of their final year.
