Leading to: Architecture/Architecture (International) (RIBA Part 1) BA (Hons)
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.
Why study Architecture (International) (RIBA Part 1) BA(Hons)
Upon successful graduation, you may be able to work in a wide range of architectural practices and could find that you are in demand for your practical ability and creative flair.
The course is recognised by the Architects Registration Board (ARB) – the body that regulates the architects’ profession in the UK. This is good news if you’re planning to be an architect following the degree, as you must register with the ARB to practise under the title of ‘architect’ in the UK.
Enhancing your career prospects, this architecture degree could see you attend an extensive field trip overseas (this is compulsory for the international route)*. To help broaden your horizons. If you are passionate about architectural design, architectural technology, construction, spatial and digital design, this course should more than satisfy your curiosity for the subject.
