University of Notre Dame
School of Architecture

Students spend their third year at the School's Rome Studies Center, studying the practice of architecture in one of the world's greatest cities.
 
 

DISCRETIONARY DUAL DEGREE (DDD)

(3-Year) M.Arch plus (1-Year) M.ADU
Students who pursue the DDD option spend an additional year of studies at Notre Dame, during which time they spend two semesters rather than one in Rome, complete concentrations in both Classical Architecture and Urban Design, serve as a TA during their additional year of study, and graduate at the end of their additional year with both the professional M.Arch degree and the post-professional M.ADU degree.  Students invited to pursue the DDD course of study will receive a full tuition scholarship in their additional year, plus a teaching stipend.  All M.Arch students are eligible to apply for the DDD course of study, but all DDD invitations are extended at the discretion of the School of Architecture Graduate Studies Committee and may vary in any year from none to no more than two.  The typical four-year DDD course of study is indicated here;   a less common three year DDD course of study would typically include the first year of the Path B Classical Architecture course of study (including required courses TBD), plus the final four semesters as indicated in the four-year DDD course of study below.
