Masters

Students who successfully complete the Bachelor of Architectural Design will automatically progress to F6001 Master of Architecture, the second part of the Monash University architecture program, at the completion of this double degree.

Architecture at Monash is a five-year academic program starting with the Bachelor of Architectural Design and leading to the Master of Architecture course. These together will qualify graduates to start their professional practice.

Creativity is the cornerstone of the three-year Bachelor of Architectural Design course. Central to the course is the design studio where you will investigate ideas and experiment with design processes, mentored by academics and architects from around the world. You will construct models and build full scales structures, both in class and in the community and experiment with diverse materials in our glass, woodwork and metal studios.

Very high achieving domestic students can apply to be admitted to the scholars program. Architectural design scholars complete the same academic program as other students in the Bachelor of Architectural Design but also have access to a range of development opportunities that provide an edge in industry. Scholars will be personally mentored by a leading architect and provided with the opportunity to participate in a leadership workshop series. Architectural design scholars (who must be Australian or New Zealand citizens or holders of an Australian permanent resident or permanent humanitarian visa) will also receive an annual scholarship while they remain in the scholars program of the Bachelor of Architectural Design.

Students who successfully complete the Bachelor of Architectural Design will automatically progress to the Master of Architecture, which focuses on research-led architectural design teaching and learning through advanced studios and depth-unit architectural studies electives.

Architecture offers substantial career opportunities in Australia and internationally. Our graduates work in private practices and for government. Some become specialists - in heritage buildings, sustainable design or commercial projects. They work on homes, complexes, entertainment precincts and purpose-built facilities. Opportunities also include roles in government as policy advisors, in project management or in development.

You will develop your artistic skills in one or more visual media and integrate this with your expertise in the field of your second degree such as arts, business, or information technology. You may also choose to share your artistic creativity and passion through a professional career in teaching by enrolling in the double degree with education.

Double degrees

The Bachelor of Fine Art course, in the specialisation of visual arts, can be taken in combination with the following courses:

• Bachelor of Arts
• Bachelor of Business
• Bachelor of Information Technology
• Bachelor of Education (Honours)

This will lead to the award of two degrees, the Bachelor of Visual Arts, and the degree offered by the partner course. The requirements for the award of the each of the degrees are the same whether the award is earned through a single or double degree course. Students should refer to the course entry for the partner course and the course mapcourse map (http://www.monash.edu.au/pubs/2017handbooks/maps/) for the double degree, for the requirements of the other degree.

Specialisations

Art history and curating

Art history and curating is concerned with the historical, theoretical and practical aspects of contemporary art and its forms of display. Modern and contemporary art will be situated in relation to broad social, cultural, environmental, historical and theoretical developments. This specialisation will enable you to become articulate in critiquing artistic practice and to operate within the expanded field of art history and curatorship.

Fine art

Fine art is concerned with the practice of contemporary art. This specialisation will provide you with an interdisciplinary approach to artistic practice, developing your critical awareness and understanding of cultural developments across local, national and international contexts. It will encourage you to move across discipline boundaries and to develop individual studio-based responses to the broad field of creative practice.

Visual arts

Visual arts is concerned with an expanded understanding of cultural production. This specialisation will provide you with an interdisciplinary approach to visual practices. It will develop your critical awareness and understanding of artwork in its production, presentation, curatorial and discursive contexts. You will be exposed to a range of discipline areas as a basis for individual as well as collaborative cultural production and later customise your program according to a broad array of professional, material and public outcomes.

These course outcomes are aligned with the Australian Qualifications Framework level 7 and Monash Graduate AttributesAustralian Qualifications Framework level 7 and Monash Graduate Attributes (http://www.monash.edu.au/pubs/handbooks/alignmentofoutcomes.html).

Upon successful completion of this course it is expected that students will be able to:

1. undertake sustained independent cultural practice in fine art and associated industries at a professional level
2. contextualise, generate and apply an interdisciplinary understanding of cultural production in order to position your independent professional practice and output critically within it
3. identify and evaluate research concepts in art history and theory relevant to contemporary production
4. demonstrate critical thinking and communication skills including writing abilities that enable you to become articulate in critiquing artistic practice
5. interpret, represent and respond to diverse modes of creative expression including the socio-economic and cultural contexts of fine art practice and the ethical responsibilities of the profession.

The course develops through theme studies in history and theory, drawing, and fine art knowledge and practice. In the art history and curating specialisation, these will come together through an internship and a final research project. In the fine art and visual arts specialisations, these will come together in the form of a graduand exhibition normally developed during the final two studio units in the third year of the course.

Part A. History and theory studies

History and theory units will equip you with the skills necessary to research fine arts issues and provide the research methods relevant to your studio or workshop practice. They will enable you to contextualise your own practice and communicate ideas and strategies.

The core of this course consists of four units of design studio extending over four semesters. These units include a series of defined and self-directed design projects that can engage with design systems, services, processes, environments and artefacts. Students are required to demonstrate high-level planning, resourcing, implementation and evaluation, informing the development of an expert understanding of professional design processes. The course engages students in design research processes and permits them the opportunity to personally contribute to the development of their discipline.

Students may select a particular design studio specialisation within the course, or they may enrol in the advanced studies in design specialisation and select units from across a number of areas:

• Advanced studies in design
• Collaborative design
• Interaction design
• Multimedia design.

In addition to the core design studios, a unit in design thinking initiates the development of individual design research strategies. Three further units build capability in design research, management, entrepreneurialism, culminating in an exegesis. Two selective units complement the core studies by extending relevant discipline skills and knowledge. Teaching methodologies consists of studio sessions, creative and technical laboratories, lectures, tutorials and research seminars.

Specialisations

Advanced studies in design

If you prefer a broadly applicable advanced design qualification you may choose, with the approval of your course coordinator, a selection of units from each level across the specialisation streams. This means you will refine your own studies by selecting from collaborative design, interaction design or multimedia design.

This enables you to tailor your unit choices while addressing the fundamental principles of advanced design practice and thinking. It will challenge you to connect research and practice across the design disciplines to become a highly thoughtful and engaged design practitioner. Throughout your studies you will build your learning by broadening your knowledge of key design constructs, deepening your professional learning in design areas of interest, and advancing your capacity as a design professional. The final semester of study provides the opportunity for you to pursue a major self-initiated project, or extend your skills by participating in a leading industry project.

Collaborative design

The collaborative design specialisation brings together expertise from disciplines that develop and create graphic, product and spatial designs. This specialisation responds directly to the contemporary shift towards collaborative design engagement. It will operate both conceptually and practically at the intersection of interior, graphic and industrial design practice. The program will expose you to design challenges that involve image, text, products, narratives, systems, services, public and private space, materiality and virtuality. These creative outputs are not approached as single entities, but in scenarios that require a comprehensive and holistic design approach. You will be required to demonstrate independent conceptual and practical skills and your ability to engage in collaborative design processes. The program will develop your professional awareness across the creative disciplines, prompt multidisciplinary design competencies, and promote broader skills in leadership, professional adaptability, and complex project planning. The final year of study provides the opportunity for you to pursue a major project, or extend your skills by participating in a leading industry project.

Interaction design

The interaction design specialisation develops your skills and competencies in the design of contemporary artefacts, products and services that engage with interactive, user-focused technologies and processes. These can include, but are not limited to, health and medical equipment, 'smart' furniture, educational toys, wearable technologies, public information kiosks and transport systems. You can engage with a diverse range of interactive processes, including the application of advanced technologies, electronics and programming, physical and virtual interface manipulation, engineering and material fabrication and rapid prototyping. The specialisation equips you with an understanding of the unique relationship that exists between interactive activities, products and human behaviour. You will develop a critical awareness of current social and commercial issues pertaining to interaction and user experience design. The final year of study provides the opportunity for you to pursue a major project, or extend your skills by participating in a leading industry-supported project.

Multimedia design

In the multimedia design specialisation you will engage with contemporary digital communication environments. This includes designing for the web, motion and animation, and interactive touch screen devices and surfaces. The specialisation emphasises an advanced knowledge of existing and emerging digital design processes and systems and embraces projects of varied scale, from hand-held smart devices to large public interactive screens. The studio units bring together practical design skills with the conceptual thinking required of contemporary digital communication environments. This includes an astute ability to construct a communication narrative, strategically and meaningfully engage multimedia processes with broader community and business needs, and understand the end-user's intuitive and iterative engagement with a project (web site, app and other screen-based media). The final year of study provides the opportunity for you to pursue a major project, or extend your skills by participating in a leading industry project.

The course develops through theme studies in architectural design, technologies and environments, history and theory, communication and applied professional practices. Exhibition of students' work at the conclusion of both stages 1 and 2 will demonstrate the integration of these themes through self-directed design project work.

Part A. Architecture design studios/Advanced architecture and design studios

Architecture design studio units bring together a range of complex issues inherent in the production of architecture: material, structure, program, site, history and representation. They focus on the architectural project as a process of investigation, critical observation and experimentation. Design studios foreground the development of architectural designs through material and three-dimensional testing of ideas. They combine various design, technical, conceptual, historical and professional issues into creative architectural outcomes across a range of scales and types of projects.

At the graduate level these studies will focus on advanced concepts and skills relevant to architecture design. Through project-based studio classes you will gain exposure to leading design practices. In conjunction with studios, you will select from a range of advanced architecture studies units, which are complementary depth units. These will introduce you to the methods and tactics of architectural design research and engage with the multidisciplinary socio-cultural, political, economic, historical, theoretical and technical dimensions relevant to architecture and urbanism. Studies culminate in the final year with a rich integrated project that draws on and advances prior learning.

Part B. Technologies and environments studies

Technologies and environments units cover material, structural, construction and environmental conditions. Studies begin with the exploration of materials through physical models and drawings. They move on to the introduction of structural systems and then to environmental systems including human comfort and energy usage. Across the units, issues are explored through design projects including the use of physical and digital models for performance analysis.

Part C. History and theory studies

History and theory units provide the skills to research and analyse architecture issues, and develop awareness and critical understanding of architectural and urban developments across local, national and international contexts. Through the prism of history, you will begin to situate the built environment in relation to broad social, cultural, environmental and theoretical developments. These units introduce the languages of architecture - formal, visual, written, and verbal - and enable you to become more articulate in all of these modes.

Part D. Communication studies

In communications units you will learn various representational techniques relevant to the technical, conceptual and intuitive practices of architectural design work. The investigations develop through a series of clearly defined exercises that build upon one another and increase in complexity and scale over time, from drawing to key software applications and design media necessary for professional practice. You will be introduced to tools, techniques and media for developing and expressing architectural ideas.

Part E: Professional practices

These studies culminate in a dedicated unit in the master's stage of the course, providing focus on the core business and regulatory aspects of practice as an architect within the context of multi-disciplinary collaborations and evolving construction methods and practices.

Part F. Occupational health and safety study

This will introduce you to occupational health, safety and environmental training particularly within the context of studying art, design and architecture.

Part G. Elective study

Electives will enable you to further develop your knowledge of architecture, and enable you to tailor your studies to individual interests or to select units from across the faculty or the University (in which you are eligible to enrol).

The Master of Urban Planning and Design, offered by the Department of Architecture is a project-based urban planning and design course which offers education for urban planners and is recognised by the Planning Institute of Australia. Working on urban projects based in real settings, the course integrates policy and research approaches with the process-oriented approaches of design as central methods for addressing the challenges facing planners in the twenty-first-century city.

Expanded methods for the planning professional

The role of planners is critical in developing effective, sustainable and equitable approaches to the complex urban issues facing cities around the world, such as rapid urbanisation and climate change. Planning education needs to adjust to meet these challenges; planners can no longer rely on traditional policy focused approaches and needs to develop expanded methods for understanding, critiquing and re-framing the contemporary and future city.

By foregrounding design process as an iterative method for developing problem-solving skills, planners can extend their techniques in researching, developing, testing and improving planning processes. Such an approach provides future planners with the necessary abilities to actively engage with a range of stakeholders in flexible ways that lead to clear directions and implementation plans.

Real-world projects in research settings

The course offers an interdisciplinary and collaborative approach that engages with the urban planning interests in the Department of Architecture as well as other research interests in Monash University, such as the Cooperative Research Centre for Water Sensitive Cities, the Monash Sustainability Institute and the Monash Infrastructure Institute.

The focus of the project studios is on understanding the impacts around the growth and transformation of cities as we move through this century. As such, projects are themed around central issues for planners, such as the Compact City, the Ecological City, the Sprawling City and the Inclusive City. For instance, the Compact City project might develop integrated strategies for urban renewal transitions that address housing affordability, public transport, the walking and cycling opportunities, lower energy consumption and quality local amenities; the

These course outcomes are aligned with the Australian Qualifications Framework level 9 and Monash Graduate AttributesAustralian Qualifications Framework level 9 and Monash Graduate Attributes (http://www.monash.edu.au/pubs/handbooks/alignmentofoutcomes.html).

Upon successful completion of this course it is expected that students will be able to:

1. understand, reflect critically upon, and proficiently apply the necessary skills to become a professional planner according to the requirements of the Planning Institute of Australia
2. integrate relevant knowledge and skills to develop, appraise and evaluate planning solutions in complex urban contexts, sensitive to environmental, economic, governance, social and cultural considerations
3. collaborate and communicate effectively in multi-disciplinary teams, demonstrating intercultural competence, team membership and leadership in diverse environments
4. critically assess international planning discourses and practices, applying interdisciplinary research methods to contribute to advancing planning and urban design practice and knowledge
5. apply critical judgment to situate research and urban planning practice in a wider context, to appropriately consider the impact on an international community.

The Department of Architecture is in the process of seeking to meet the requirements for registration of this course as an accredited planning course of the Planning Institute of Australia (PIA). If successful, the qualification will be recognised for graduates to become members of the PIA.

The knowledge and skills required for professional recognition as a planner with the Planning Institute of Australia, will be integrated throughout the course structure, which comprises four project studio units, four stand alone complementary depth study units, two applied professional practice units and two open elective units.

Part A. Urban planning projects and study units

Planning projects

Cumulative, project-based learning is attached to real world settings and research projects that provide the framework/structure for the development of the conceptual, creative, analytical, critical, ethical and communication skills required by planning professionals and appropriate to postgraduate study. Working in multi-disciplinary groups on research projects, you will learn how to synthesise planning solutions within the constraints of a given project. Projects work across a range of spatial settings, allowing a broad exploration of issues and development of skills and knowledge.

The delivery of the project integrates lectures from leading academics and practitioners, workshops and seminars, field visits and examinations of case studies of projects, plans and policies used in cities around the world. In each project, students develop skills around applied knowledge that considers how the physical, social, cultural, economic and governance issues are all integrated. Ideas, concepts and outcomes of projects will be communicated through presentations, draft policies, plans and urban designs. You will be assessed through regular critiques of your work and through the final outcomes of written and visual work at the end of the semester.

The results of each project will become part of a compendium that collects and builds knowledge and expertise in the course. This compendium will be in effect a living document that compiles all of the theoretical, historical, propositional and final reports of the course.

Urban planning study

Complementary study units deepen knowledge areas and introduce you to the methods and approaches of urban planning research that engage with the multidisciplinary socio-cultural, political, economic, historical, theoretical and governance dimensions relevant to planning and urbanism. These units are run as lectures and seminars and are delivered in each semester. The study units incorporate literature and case study material that reflects on a wide range of approaches in Australia and internationally. This will ensure a relevance of material to students who come from or wish to work overseas.

Part B. Applied professional practices

In these studies you will focus on the generic capabilities and specific competencies that contribute to the practice of a quality urban planning professional, and the development of their abilities to work at a high level and in an ethical way in multi-disciplinary teams that address a range of complex issues in the city. Issues covered include the development and constant refining of skills in research, project management, spatial analysis, data collection and management, policy writing, plan-making and urban design, architectural plan-reading, and presentation and communication skills. The units include:

Part C. Free electives

These studies provide complementary depth units that enable students to tailor studies to individual interests. You can select units from either planning-specific advanced planning studies depth units or other units offered by the University. Free electives in which you are eligible to enrol can be chosen from across the Monash University faculties. In any given year a range of units relevant to urban planning (e.g. transport, architecture, sustainable development, economics, project management, indigenous perspectives, professional writing) will be available.

If you are interested in progressing to research training, an exegesis unit may be taken in place of the final elective unit. In this unit, you will conceptualise and present a final project work in the context of contemporary theory and practice.

This course comprises 96 points structured into three parts: Part A. Urban planning projects and study units, Part B. Applied professional practices and Part C. Free electives.

Note: If you can present evidence of successful completion of equivalent study for particular units you may be eligible for credit for prior studies. Each case will be considered individually.
