The Master in Architecture and Urban Design responds to the need to transform our cities into resilient, healthy, just, and sustainable places. The program proposes to face the urban challenges of climate change, migration, inequality, and accelerated growth through tools and methodologies focused on the design and management of multi-scale projects that will impact the regeneration of ecological systems in built environments. 

The above will promote the integration of groups of professionals interested in the possibilities found in urban design and planning, as well as in areas related to social sciences, natural resources and engineering. Consequently, the program seeks to create, maintain, and strengthen the interrelationships between the physical, built environment, and the social, economic and political institutions that create urban areas. 

The Master of Architecture and Urban Design is directly related to the Vision 2030 of the Tecnológico de Monterrey, where the Institute has identified global trends that are redefining education. Among them, Open Cities stands out, which is focused on meeting the need to respond to rapid urbanization and the concentration of talent and value in cities. Likewise, the program addresses the recognized challenge of training the next generation of innovative citizens who take advantage of the resources of their communities, improve their environment and raise the quality of life.
