Master of Architecture [M.Arch] [Building Technology] From California College of the Arts

Through a focus on advanced digital technologies and material systems, design research and urban agency, CCA strives to develop the next generation of designers who will shape our future built environments.

CCA offers classes and design studios led by world-class faculty with active design and research practices. Widely published and exhibited, our faculty supports an open-minded attitude to design and strives to instill in our students a desire to evolve, adapt, and respond to the ever-changing architectural landscape.

We believe architects are makers of culture and makers of the future -- leading and responding to social, economic, and ecological change.

Our national and international network is amplified by our public programs Architecture Division Lecture Series features architects and theorists from around the world and the Bay Area, who come to CCA to present their work and directly engage studios and seminars.

Designed for students who have earned a bachelor's degree in another field, our NAAB-accredited program provides a three-year professional master's degree in architecture. (The program is also available to students who have begun their architectural studies at the undergraduate level.)
