Architectural Research (Research)

With a focus on building the practice and methods of research in the context of architecture and design, this flexible programme allows you to tailor your studies to your research aspirations and development needs, going beyond what is offered in conventional taught postgraduate courses.

Completion of the programme provides a foundation for future research, whether through progression to doctoral study or via research careers in industry, professional practice or the public sector.

Students progressing from University of Brighton taught postgraduate courses which share optional modules with this MRes may be awarded up to 40 credits of recognised prior learning at Level 7 in lieu of taught modules.

The core MRes research project is at the heart of your course. You’ll work on your project under the supervision of an academic member of staff who specialises in your area of interest. Option modules help you to specialise in an area of particular interest and develop research approaches, methods and themes in more detail to support the specific focus of your research project.
