The professional Master of Architecture in conjunction with the pre-professional Bachelor of Architectural Studies degree from the University of À¶Ý®ÊÓƵ compromises an accredited professional education.
In Canada, all provincial/territorial associations/institutes/orders recommend a degree from an accredited professional degree program as a prerequisite for licensure. In Canada, theÌýÌýis the sole agency authorized by theÌýÌýto accredit Canadian professional degree programs in architecture for the purposes of architectural licensure.ÌýThe CACB recognizes two types of accredited degrees offered at the University of À¶Ý®ÊÓƵ School of Architecture: the Master of Architecture (professional) and the Bachelor of Architecture (pre-professional). A program may be granted a six-year, three-year, or two-year term of accreditation, depending on its degree of conformance with established educational standards.
Master’s degree programs may consist of a pre-professional undergraduate degree and a professional graduate degree, which, when earned sequentially, comprise an accredited professional education. However, the pre-professional degree is not, by itself, recognized as an accredited degree.
The program in Architecture at the University of À¶Ý®ÊÓƵ received accreditation for a 6-year term by theÌýÌýin 2024. The program is scheduled for its next review to continue maintaining its accredited status in 2030.
