a word of welcome
Dear prospective student,
Throughout the history of architecture there has been a general consensus that the best designs are those created by artists who are not bound by the financial constraints of business.
Contemporary architecture has proven, however, that excellence of design, although necessary, is not quite enough to ensure success. Most architects are entrepreneurs and vocational designers who need a specific management toolkit to build the career they want. In response to this scenario, IE School of Architecture & Designhas launched the Master in Architectural Management and Design, in collaboration with IE Business School, to bridge the gap between advanced design and business management in the Architecture, Engineering and Construction (AEC) field. The result is a program that addresses the design implications of business decisions and vice versa.
Located in Madrid, IE Business School is considered one of the world s leading business schools by international press such as Financial Times, The Economist and Wall Street Journal.
Renowned for its marked focus on the entrepreneurial spirit and its humanistic approach, IE’s world-class faculty is comprised of entrepreneurs, executives, academic experts and authors published in top journals. Many of these professors have held executive positions in start-up companies or multinationals. They bring intellectual diversity and practical insights straight to the classroom to create rich and challenging programs.
Based in Segovia and Madrid, IE School of Architecture & Design is a stand-alone extension of the highly successful IE Business School model to the world of design. As a result of the collaboration between these two institutions, the Master in Architectural Management and Design offers key differentiating factors, providing a unique environment to analyze and reflect on contemporary design, coupled with the entrepreneurial and management knowledge needed for success in the AEC field.
It is therefore our pleasure to invite you to explore this prospectus and apply to join this groundbreaking program.
Warmest regards,

quick facts about MAMD
The idea that cutting-edge design can only come from architects who remain untouched by the constraints of business or finance is now obsolete. In fact, contemporary practice has shown that although excellence of design is necessary for success, it is by no means the only requirement.
Business acumen and management know-how now play a key role in the success of an architectural practice. The Master in Architectural Management and Design bridges the gap between advanced design and the management skills that are essential to succeed in the Architecture, Engineering and Construction (AEC) industry today. The program is designed to cover the specific needs of professionals who already have a sound working knowledge of theoretical and applied principles, and now wish to acquire and apply business expertise in the field of AEC. It is a fact that today the majority of architects are freelance professionals, entrepreneurs and vocational designers, who face business responsibilities without adequate tools and training. This program addresses the design implications of business decisions and vice versa.
Furthermore, students can expect to develop their interpersonal skills through hands-on practice and extensive teamwork.

MODULE 1
THE AEC PROFESSIONAL AS AN ENTREPRENEUR I
— Entrepreneurial Management
— Personal Strategy
— Design and Business Communication
Since its inception, IE Business School has embraced the entrepreneurial spirit as a core value, and is now an international reference in the field of entrepreneurship. In fact, the School itself was founded by entrepreneurs, and the entrepreneurial spirit is an integral part of its day-to-day fabric. In this first module, students will learn how to develop a compelling business model. They are encouraged to come up with new venture ideas, form teams with colleagues and spend several months developing business models that are “investor ready.” For many, the culmination of this exercise is a reality check of their business models, for others it is the beginning of turning these ideas into their future entrepreneurial ventures.
MODULE 2
THE AEC PROFESSIONAL AS A MANAGER I
— Financial Planning
— Economic Environment
— Strategy Fundamentals
— Marketing Fundamentals
This module will provide students with foundation in general management which helps them build a solid foundation for the in-depth exploration of an organization as a whole, not just as a sum of its parts. Most areas of management are studies using practical cases, which deal with real or fictional problems that may arise in different company contexts, and are analyzed from global or national perspectives.
MODULE 3
THE AEC PROFESSIONAL AS A DESIGNER
— Introduction to Design Management
— Strategic Design
— Cost Control Design
— Marketing and Design
— Computational Design
— Building Information Management
The third module addresses how design decisions have business implications and vice-versa. It also provides advanced design skills and state-of-the-art software knowledge to be applied in a multidisciplinary integrated practice. In London, as part of the Architects Backstage series, students will have lectures with architects representing top practices such as Foster and Partners, AHR-Global, Chipperfield, OMA, Rogers Stirk Harbour and Partners, GENSLER and Zaha Hadid Architects. Each one of these practices excels in coupling their management and design strategies and will share with students their experience in the back office work needed to achieve outstanding design.
