It is a taught postgraduate programme for students who intend to become architects. Applicants who possess a pre-professional degree in architecture, or its equivalent, and relevant work experience are eligible for admission.

The programme is designed to cut across traditional boundaries among architecture, construction and management, investment, surveying, engineering and environmental sciences to take a broad view of the subject. The programme focuses on the technical, engineering, policy and economic related topics on carbon neutrality, especially on urban mobility, buildings and sustainability, so that the students will have multidisciplinary knowledge and skills to design and assess urban sustainability and carbon-neutral/zero-energy buildings, communities and cities.

The three-year Bachelor of Social Science degree in Architectural Studies provides learning experiences that help students unlock their creative and professional potential. With an emphasis on sustainability, craft and the rapidly changing urban environment, the programme offers an exciting platform for students to chart an individual path as an architectural education
