With a focus on educating students with a global outlook, Nottingham Trent University has set collaborative, industry-facing projects set in local, national, and international contexts. The course framework enables students to advance their ability to research, analyse, self-appraise, think critically, work in a team and provide constructive feedback. With core legal, management and design leadership skills built into the course content, students will develop high-level skills needed for advanced industry practice.

Nottingham Trent University's MArch Architecture course content is focused on four core strands: developing design and communication skills; extending student awareness and knowledge of the theory and socio-economic, historic and cultural factors affecting architectural design; advancing student appreciation of technology and construction methods; and developing student knowledge of management, practise and law.

Together, this framework will build upon the skills and knowledge students have already gained, extending their ability to research, analyse, self-appraise, think critically, work in a team and provide constructive feedback.
