The Master in Advanced Computation for Architecture and Design is an online programme that equips professionals with advanced skills in simulation, analysis and data-driven design. Through a structured academic journey, students gain fluency in tools like Rhino, Grasshopper, Karamba, Python and AI-based systems, addressing the real-world demands of the AEC industry.

Delivered in a live, interactive format – with the option to follow sessions asynchronously – the Master in Advanced Computation for Architecture and Design offers a collaborative virtual classroom and direct access to expert faculty and peer networks across time zones.

Organised in three modules, with an optional final thesis, the programme explores computational methods for structural optimisation, environmental performance, BIM workflows and machine learning. These technologies are approached as essential parts of architectural thinking – integrated into the design process from the ground up.

The programme is designed for those who want to deepen their technical practice while remaining professionally active – bridging code, form and data in a flexible but rigorous academic framework.
