Is it sensible for me to go for a master's degree considering my current job and course curriculum in UK?

Yes, pursuing a Master's in Architecture in the UK is a sensible step given your three years of professional experience and academic background.
Your work experience meets the typical entry requirements for UK Master's programs, which often ask for 6 months to 2 years of relevant experience. This strengthens your application and shows your commitment to the field.
A Master's can help you progress toward becoming a registered architect (Part 2 qualification) and open up senior roles and international opportunities. While the immediate salary increase may be modest - around £3,000 to £5,000/year - the long-term career benefits are significant.
