The graduate curriculum in the MS in Architecture includes three major areas of focus, divided into eleven individual laboratories. The first area of investigation is history and theory, and includes the Architecture History Lab, which conducts in-depth research on the history of architecture in Korea and Asia, the Laboratory for Architecture and Historic Cities, which studies historic cities, cultural heritage and world heritage, and the Architecture and Urban Theory Lab, which studies history and theory of architecture and cities, as well as future of architecture and urbanism. The second area of focus is urban design and architectural planning. Urban Form and Conservation Lab coducts neighborhood design for pedestrians, and issues in urban conservation and urban design policy. SALT (Socio-spatial Architecture Labor Task) studies social operation method through spatial organization analysis. LAUS (Lab for Architectural and Urban Space) covers research topics of urban and architectural space analysis, space programming & planning, and urban design policy. Lastly, five design laboratories which share a common lab space includes the Project : Architecture, the TAAL Lab, the Laboratory for Architectural Culture, the Laboratory for Architectural Space, and the Modern Architecture and Urbanism Lab.

Architectural Engineering Major
Graduate courses in the Architectural Engineering curriculum cover several areas that are investigated in seven individual laboratories. The Architecture Environmental Planning Lab and the Building Simulation Lab study built environment, technical building systems, and building simulation theories and principles. The Construction Engineering & Management Lab examines the construction and management of structures. The Structural Engineering & Material Lab investigates advanced construction materials for building structures. There are also the Steel Structures & Seismic Design Lab, the Building Structural System Lab, and the Hi-performance Structural Engineering Lab, as well as Smart Infrastructure AI Monitoring Lab. More information about each lab is given below.
