Students with an eye for design can earn a master’s degree in architecture in only five years at Mizzou through the department of architectural studies. The master of architecture is the terminal degree in architecture, training students for careers in academia or the private sector.  

Internships will prepare students to earn their professional licensure, a step in their professional growth that requires a combination of education, experience, and examination. 

*The Architectural Studies program is pursuing full accreditation from the National Architectural Accrediting Board (NAAB). This spring, the program will become the first public institution in Missouri with an accredited degree in architecture. 

The Health Humanities is a rapidly growing interdisciplinary field in need of advocates who are passionate about healthcare delivery and quality service. Our Health Humanities degree program is meeting this high demand, training students to see the bigger picture, going beyond diagnosis and treatment. In this interdisciplinary program, students explore the cultural, demographic, economic, and historical factors that impact health, healthcare, and health policy. Upon completion of the program, graduates pursue medical school or other careers in health care and civic engagement. Career pathways include positions in government, healthcare, civic engagement, and administration in the private and public sectors.
