Providing the first step to becoming a fully qualified architect, our Architecture (International) (RIBA Part 1) BA(Hons) degree course is validated by the Royal Institute of British Architects (RIBA). In fact, upon graduation, you’ll gain exemption from RIBA’s Part 1 Professional Examinations. RIBA Part 1, 2 and 3 qualifications are also offered here at Huddersfield.
The course works alongside our suite of built environment courses, to help you develop a strong understanding of professionalism within the construction industry. There are two strands to the course: Architecture, and Architecture International. In the final year of the course, you can opt for a Home or International Design Studio. Both offer a distinctive approach to the subject, allowing you to explore different cultural regions. The environmental and social nature of the course means that you’ll experience ideas and influences that are as diverse as they are creative.
There’s never been a more interesting, or important time to be an architect. The need for the design of beautiful, practical, and efficient buildings for individuals, businesses and communities around the world is greater as we face the demands and challenges of the future. A future which, in many ways, is uncertain, as we tackle social, cultural, and climatic changes (emergencies) globally.
You’ll learn in our state-of-the-art, £30-million Barbara Hepworth Building, which gives you access to 3D printers, laser cutters, virtual reality and motion tracking sensors, studio space, and more.
