Stage2 - Diploma of Built Environment - Architecture and Construction, Leading to Bachelor of Applied Science in Interior Architecture

Program Overview

Students who have already completed Year 12 (or equivalent) may start with the Stage 2 Diploma, which has the same course content and structure as year one of the corresponding Curtin University undergraduate degree. Upon completion of your Diploma, you will progress directly into the second year of your Curtin University Bachelor's degree program.

Stage2 - Diploma of Built Environment - Architecture and Construction
The Diploma of Built Environment provides entry into three different career paths:

Architectural Science - Learn about building design and construction. Discover how architecture relates to people and how they live. Learn about the communication of architectural ideas.
Interior Architecture - Learn how to design quality environments and coordinate the design and construction of building interiors for a diverse range of environments.
Construction Management - Learn how physical elements create a structure, calculate construction costs and manage construction projects.

Leading to: Bachelor of Applied Science ( Interior Architecture)
Interior architects offer creative, proactive and innovative design solutions for the exciting developments occurring across all areas of contemporary life.

In this degree, you will develop a strong foundation in critical design thinking and theory relating to human occupation.

You'll explore how human experience is central to interior architecture, particularly as the ‘innovation economy’ is calling for change to the designs of environments where we learn, work and live.

From the start of your course, you will develop the knowledge and technical skills required for professional practice. Through work-integrated learning opportunities, you'll work on real projects, undertake site visits, create site documentation and deliver client briefings. You may also pitch design concepts to real clients and practitioners.

You will learn key career skills including communication, creative problem solving and collaborative work practice.

Students must complete at least 80 hours of relevant work experience before graduating. Curtin provides you with opportunities to work with real clients. Our students have contributed design solutions for organisations such as Victoria Park Centre for the Arts and worked with industry consultants Hassell, Geyer and Cox.

What you'll learn

Identify, explain and apply the disciplinary concepts in interior architecture
Develop creative practices and ways of building knowledge that are critical and reflective
Evaluate and synthesise information from various sources across multiple disciplines to inform the responsive processes related to the design and experience of interior architecture
Select and use effective and appropriate visual, spoken, written, graphic and technical communication techniques appropriate for academic and professional environments
Use a range of available technologies appropriate to interior architecture
Adapt and respond to new ways of learning and global interaction to develop a self-directed approach
Develop awareness and sensitivity around community and its role in Interior Architecture with particular attention to context and global differences in perceptions and interpretations of concepts and practice
Recognise and understand cultural diversity in particular indigenous perspectives and knowledges. Respect individual human rights and include concepts of social sustainability, social equity and cultural diversity into interior architecture
Work independently and collaboratively demonstrating relevant professional and ethical practices
