Architecture (Research)

The MSc by Research programme is for those with a good general knowledge of the subject area who wish to focus their interests and deepen their knowledge of a specific topic.

Research is central to the study of architecture in the Edinburgh School of Architecture and Landscape Architecture (ESALA). It motivates our intellectual and creative activities and underpins our collaborations with a range of important international and UK-based institutions.

We actively promote interdisciplinary approaches to research in architecture. Our expertise and interests range across the following areas:

• Architectural Conservation

• Architectural History, Theory and Criticism

• Design-led Research and Studio Practice

• Technology, Environment and Sustainability

• Interior Design
