The Master of Advanced Architectural Design (MAAD) at UC Berkeley’s College of Environmental Design is a one-year, post-professional graduate program intended for students with professional training in architecture (typically a BArch or MArch). The program focuses on experimental studio work centered on material and construction techniques—in 2025, the core theme is 'Forest — Fiber — Frame,' emphasizing innovative uses of wood in response to climate change. Coursework includes research-driven studios and lectures/seminars in design theory, history, technology, and building applications. The MAAD degree is not accredited by the NAAB and does not lead to licensure in the U.S. 来源： https://ced.berkeley.edu/arch/degrees-admissions/master-of-architecture
