BSc (Hons) Architecture with Foundation Year

Take your first step towards becoming a professional architect by completing this degree which is prescribed by the Architects Registration Board (ARB) and validated by the Royal Institute of British Architects (RIBA) as a Part 1 qualification.

Experience a professional design studio by working in our new purpose-built facilities which include dedicated studio spaces where you will have you own individual workspace. You will be working with our passionate and supportive community of staff on stimulating and client driven design projects designed specifically for you to develop and hone your individual and collaboration skills.

Throughout the course you will master key communication skills including hand drawing and model-making whilst also developing skills in using professional industry software, including Building Information Modelling (BIM) tools. You will also be getting hands-on experience with the latest technologies such as 3D laser scanning, VR tools, and 3D printing – all this is designed to prepare you for employment. You will have opportunities to meet future employers through our wide network of collaborating companies and showcase your work at our annual Graduate Show.

In addition to the above, your experience and knowledge of architecture will be augmented by visiting major national and international cities with past trips including London, Berlin, Rome, Paris, and Dubai.
