The MDes is considered to be a terminal degree in design, and graduates are poised to take on leading roles in professional practice worldwide. Alumni are also well-positioned to acquire entry-level teaching and research positions at universities. As a graduate, you may choose to deepen your studies through a design-focused PhD program, like that offered by the CMU School of Design, or continue your education in areas such as business, human-computer interaction, or public policy. Whatever direction you choose to pursue, our MDes will provide you with a strong design education that builds on your background and strengthens the positive trajectory for achieving your professional goals.

Explore design for interactions, design for services, and design for social innovation and study their potential impact in business and policy. Expand your skills in communication and interaction design.

Take a design elective or a course outside of design to complement your skills and knowledge. We recommend courses in policy, business, service or social innovation, interaction or communication design, or professional writing.

Build on the foundation of coursework and studios through thesis research with your advisor. Conduct research and develop creative concepts to investigate a significant challenge, engage with stakeholders in the real world to inspire and evaluate your ideas, and review your progress and evolving body of work with peers and your advisor to inform your subsequent steps.

Learn research strategies and tools to assist you in your literature and artifact reviews, investigate making as a means of exploring and understanding your topic, and explore ways of visualizing your discoveries to aid your learning and share your findings with others.

Bring your thesis project to fruition by synthesizing your discoveries and disseminating valuable insights that have the potential to benefit others. Take advantage of electives to cultivate your expertise in design for interaction, and design for services or social innovation.

Model, test, and refine, your design concepts that have emerged from your year of deep research and design exploration to deepen your understanding of your topic, synthesize your findings and apply what you learned to your project, document, present, and publicly defend your thesis, and showcase your project as a unique feature of your design portfolio to demonstrate your ability to take on a significant research and design project.

Regional airports have been a rapidly growing constituent of the aviation industry, facilitating regional economic growth as well as providing mobility to integrate remote parts of the country, especially when roads are not a feasible and safe option for travel (Button et al., 2009). In contrast to their large hub counterparts who constantly use a substantial part of their capacity, regional airports provide an opportunity for growth as their potential capacity is often only partly utilized. Additionally, the pre-flight airport experience is often regarded as the least favorite aspect of air travel. This is in large part due to numerous restricted procedures that introduce significant anxiety and stress, coupled with unintuitive layouts, long walking distances, and limited resting spaces (Bogicevic et. al, 2016). Coupled with the restrictive procedures put in place due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the airport terminal as it stands today can exacerbate the negative passenger experience significantly.

This research proposes that the introduction of biophilic and soft fascination elements such as plant life or waterfalls, adequate lighting, and exterior views of nature, can have a significant effect on the level of stress the passenger experiences. The data for this research was collected through a visual environmental preference survey consisting of 48 questions regarding various spaces that can be found in regional airports such as waiting areas, work/productivity areas, common/private rest areas, and check-in areas. The sample group involved 90 participants of various age groups and backgrounds who used a regional airport in the last 2 years. From there, the resulting data was analyzed and a guideline for designing regional airport terminal interiors was developed. Hopefully, the data collected and guidelines developed can aid in designing airport terminals that promote health and wellness and enhance the passenger experience.

The post-professional architecture master of science (MS) degree allows students to complete advanced research and design work that builds on an existing professional degree in architecture, architectural engineering, structural engineering, construction management, or a related field.

The Master of Science in Architecture degree program provides an opportunity for advanced study and contribution to knowledge in the field through a thesis or terminal project. The post-professional Master of Science in Architecture (MS) degree allows students to complete advanced research and/or design inquiry that builds on an existing professional degree in architecture, interior architecture, landscape architecture, architectural engineering, structural engineering, construction management, or another related field.

Students enrolled in the Master of Science degree program must take a minimum of 45 graduate credits, of which 30 must be in architecture and 9 must be at the 600 level. Students complete a minimum of three terms in residence and are required to complete 9 credits in ARCH 503 Thesis or Terminal Project (ARCH 619).

Students in this program who are enrolled at the Eugene campus are expected to develop an individual research topic leading to a thesis or terminal project in one or more of the following areas of faculty research and design excellence:

Students in this program who are enrolled at the Portland campus are expected to develop an individual research topic leading to a thesis or terminal project in one or more of the following areas of faculty research and design excellence:

Below is a list of advanced seminar courses that may assist students in their thesis. Graduates have additional readings, end-of-term paper requirements, comprehensive analysis, research presentations, and/or additional time with the instructor.

Students may choose to enroll in a variety of courses at the at UO and OSU that address issues in mass timber, from forestry and wood science to structural and construction systems and digital design. Independent research projects will focus on special topics, working with faculty experts in those areas and opportunities will be provided for tours of mass timber buildings and manufacturing facilities in the US and abroad.

In view of this, the Central Government of India has proposed to build a cruise terminal in the scenic port of Cochin (Willingdon Island). Cochin is one of the leading cruising destinations in the country. With its strategic location and proximity to the international waterways, it has the potential to become the most preferred cruising destination globally. The Port Trust of Cochin has thus begun planning a project to build and develop a new 6.7-hectare International Cruise Terminal and public plaza to meet the increasing volume of foreign visitors.

This unique structure meets the design requirements of functionality, iconicity, accessibility, and sustainability as a single entity. It is a utopian, yet unassuming structure that coherently fits into its surroundings and skyline. The concept and organic design of plan and form are first of its kind in the cruise terminal industry, marking its distinctive character. The utopian design strategy will be a forerunner in the cruise terminal infrastructure development industry of the country in the years to come.

Hence, the concept of a wave break has been incorporated in form. The form of the building would thus create a sense of homecoming in the tourists and also display its functionality through its form. The wave can easily be associated with the sea and as a traveler on a cruise, approaching the shore, the pleasant sight of the structure would instantaneously reveal that it is a terminal facility. And as for the general public viewing it from ashore, it would create a sense of mysterious marvel and yet reveal that it is a cruise facility, through its abstractive form and its association to the sea.

The Master of Design (MDes) is a two-year degree program for designers who wish to deepen their practice by engaging in advanced research and scholarship, or who are interested in pursuing academic careers. A Master of Design degree is currently considered a terminal degree in the field.
