Graduate programs in Ball State University's College of Architecture and Planning offer both foundational and advanced education in the environmental design and planning fields.
These programs meet the needs of people from varying backgrounds. Students and professionals who already have a degree in these disciplines can expand their knowledge and pursue an area of specialization. At the same time, individuals with degrees in other disciplines can gain the skills required to enter these professions.
Graduate study can provide a decided advantage in building a successful career in these fields as employers might require a master's degree for higher-level professional positions.
Challenging course work requires students to complete intensive studio courses, hands-on design projects, a capstone thesis or creative project, and in most cases an internship in a professional office or public agency. Field trips, study-abroad opportunities, and assistantships provide other valuable experiences.
