About this course

Architecture is a rewarding and culturally important profession. Architects play a crucial role in shaping our society by not only crafting functional, responsible and aesthetically pleasing structures but also considering the wellbeing, safety and sustainability of the communities they serve.

Our Architecture BA(Hons) course provides the first step in qualifying as a professional architect — graduates are exempt from Part 1 of the RIBA examination.

You'll explore modern architectural practices, and consider how the work engages with society and its surroundings: who is it for, what informs its design and structure, and what will its legacy be?

You will engage with the full scope of architectural thinking, from aspects of applied science and technology to the humanities and fine arts.
