About this position
The concurrent Master of Architecture and Master of City Planning (MArch/MCP) program at the University of California, Berkeley prepares students to shape the built environment across multiple scales, from individual buildings and public spaces to neighborhoods, cities, and regions.
Students combine Berkeley’s design-centered architectural education with advanced study in planning, policy, and urban development. The curriculum connects architectural design practice with the policies, institutions, and public processes that influence how cities grow and change.
The architecture component provides a strong foundation through a rigorous studio curriculum. Alongside this design training, students develop expertise in planning theory, urban economics, housing, transportation, community development, and environmental planning.
Rooted in Berkeley’s interdisciplinary environmental design tradition, the program supports collaborative approaches to complex social, environmental, and spatial challenges. Its focus includes creating more equitable, sustainable, and resilient communities and connecting creative practice with urban policy and public processes.
Graduates may pursue work in urban design, planning, public policy, housing and community development, real estate and development, and related fields requiring combined expertise in architecture and city planning.
