Architectural Computing -> Masters in Architecture (1 Viewer)

[skyren]

Just some short questions...

Never heard of anyone talking about the ArchiComp much..so:
What is it like?
Is it hard?
pros n cons?

Another more important one:
Is it hard to get into masters in architecture after you graduate from your archiComp degree?
What's the procedure?

I know USYD and UMELB have entry requirement of credit average for masters in arch...best is to contact the faculties of your uni and ask them about the masters degree

I was not even aware architectural computing existed at UNSW as a program. I thought it was a dual program of Architecture/Computer science.

Ask the faculty. However with most UNSW honours programs there are different entry levels.

You can go into first class, or second class div 1 or div 2 honours.

I'm presuming you want to do this though:

A simple handbook search for the 8143 program gave a list of requirements:

I suggest you inquire in the built environment wing office, or most likely contact the school program co-ordinator (just look for who it is on the school office but you should already know who to contact by now!)

I don't know anything about architecture so I can't help with the other questions sorry.

just talked to the student centre of unsw faculty of building environment...
turns out they're revising archComp degree, and may change it to something like...computational design or something..
does that mean its even harder to do the masters?
