Teaching research is an active and exploratory teaching activity aimed at discovering the laws, methods, and effectiveness of teaching, as well as studying how to address major problems in the teaching process. The teaching research conducted over a specific period reflects the state, level, and key concerns of teaching during that time. This study focuses on journal articles related to graduate-level architecture teaching research found in China National Knowledge Infrastructure (CNKI). It employs bibliometric methods, combined with the knowledge map generated by CiteSpace, to conduct a comprehensive analysis of research hotspots, themes, authors, institutions, and the development of disciplines. The study aims to derive the evolutionary patterns and development trends of graduate-level architecture teaching, and to propose future research directions. The goal is to provide insights for the transformation of teaching methods for architecture graduate students.
