Architecture (with Integrated Foundation Year)

The first year focuses on ‘Creation and Imagination’ (Arch1a), followed by ‘Building, Dwelling, Thinking’ (Arch 1b). The second year focuses on ‘Architecture and Strategy’ (Arch 2a), which is then critically and intellectually developed in ‘Architecture and Ideology’ (Arch2b). The third year widens it scope to ‘Architecture and The Public Realm’ (Arch 3a), to produce the ‘Integrated Architectural Project’ (Arch3b) in the second part of the year.
