On the
BA (hons) Architecture programme, students get to study the art of making the world habitable and its study attracts students from a wide range of backgrounds who share a commitment to understanding and improving the human environment.
Its practice requires a rare combination of creativity, enthusiasm and technical ability, while its remit extends to the arts, landscape, planning, circulation and, of course, the investigation of construction and environmental comfort and efficiency.
The three subject areas of architectural technologies, architectural context and architectural skills are taught through a combination of lectures, seminars, workshops and group work.
In particular, we place an emphasis on the nature of precedent as a motivating force behind design, an awareness of environmental concerns and the ability of the architect to adapt to the ever changing needs of society.
The undergraduate course covers the fundamental architectural principles. These are then further explored and developed in our postgraduate programmes, leading to qualification as a registered architect and also the opportunity to develop specialisms through our Master of Architecture courses.
