Overview

The Geofutures Master of Science in Architecture is a one-year, two-semester program that takes an interdisciplinary approach drawing on advanced knowledge and expertise from the disciplines of architecture and landscape architecture. Dually based within the School of Architecture in Troy, NY and the Center for Architecture, Science, and Ecology (CASE) in Brooklyn, NY the program brings together a diverse group of researchers, educators, and professionals working at the intersections of architecture and landscape architecture. The program leverages Rensselaer’s diverse STEM and humanities departments as resources to provide students with a range of perspectives concerning the future of landscape and architectural practice. The Geofutures Master of Science in Architecture degree provides students with an opportunity to enter into an intensive, two-semester course of study to pursue scholarship at the intersection of architecture and landscape architecture. The program focuses on critical awareness and technical proficiency through design experimentation. In the program, students have the opportunity to participate in interdisciplinary design studios, history/theory seminars and lecture courses, building science seminars and lecture courses, software and fabrication seminars and workshops, as well as interdisciplinary coursework in departments across the institute. The MSArch degree is STEM designated in Architectural and Building Sciences/Technology (CIP code 04.0902). For international students, this designation allows for up to three years of OPT training in the U.S. through an F-1 visa and following graduation.

About the Institution

The Rensselaer School was established in 1824 by Stephen Van Rensselaer “for the purpose of instructing persons … in the application of science to the common purposes of life” (Van Rensselaer to Blatchford, 1824). It is “…the first school of science and school of civil engineering, which has had a continuous existence, to be established in any English-speaking country” – Palmer C. Ricketts. In 1833, the school became the Rensselaer Institute, and in the 1850s, its purpose was broadened to become a polytechnic institution. The name was changed to the Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute in 1861. At...
