The Master of Architectural Science (Sustainable Design) enables you to develop efficient and environmentally responsive buildings and to retrofit existing buildings to meet today’s environmental demands. With this knowledge, you graduate as a sustainability expert and can choose from a range of career pathways include architecture, property development, construction or urban planning. Sustainable designers are critical to ensuring that the plans on paper become a reality during and after construction. Your skills in sustainable design are enhanced through the Faculty’s expertise in the built environment. Our ‘first principles’ approach enables you not just to perform energy analyses and building assessments, but also to critique and develop further the tools and approaches required for sustainable building. Your research-leading lecturers take you on site visits and expose you to a range of international collaborators. We leverage our extensive links with industry to bring you internship opportunities with leading businesses and consultancies. You can use a wide range of electives to pursue your interests in the application of sustainable design theories and methods in architecture, planning, urban design, building services and facilities management.
