Overview of Programs and Procedures
Introduction

The Faculty of Arts offers a Minor Field of specialization in Architectural Studies. Completion of this Minor does not guarantee admission to the Master of Architecture or other degree programs in the Faculty of Environmental Design but it may reduce the number of courses that are required for a Master of Architecture.

Students interested in pursuing a Master of Architecture at the University of Calgary should note that only those students who have completed a four-year degree are considered for admission. A three-year Bachelor of Communication and Culture with an Architectural Minor is not sufficient.

For guidance on where to get program advice, see the Faculty of Arts website under http://arts.ucalgary.ca/undergraduate/student-support.

Admission

To be eligible for the Minor, students must have successfully completed a minimum of 4.0 full-course equivalents in post-secondary study by the end of the Winter term in the year in which they apply. Admission to the Minor Field will be granted for the Fall Term only. Students must apply via their online Student Centres by May 1.

A minimum grade point average of 3.20 is required for consideration for admission, but does not guarantee admission. The grade point average for admission purposes will be calculated over the most recent course work to a maximum of five full-course equivalents inclusive of University of Calgary courses and/or transferable courses taken at other institutions.

The Architectural Studies Minor has a fixed number of places for students.  Whenever demand exceeds capacity, enrolment will be limited and students will be admitted on a competitive basis.

Note: It is recommended that students take Art History 201 and/or 203 prior to entering the Minor.

Field of Architectural Studies

The Field of Architectural Studies consists of the following courses:

• Architectural Studies 423, 444, 449, 451, 453457.01, 457.02, 483, 485.
• Art History 425.

Note: Additional courses in the field may be listed on the Faculty of Arts website.
