Course summary

Northumbria’s Architect Degree Apprenticeship represents a remarkable opportunity to undertake postgraduate qualifications to become an Architect without having to leave full-time paid employment to continue your studies. There are also no tuition fees for the apprentice.

This programme is a part-time four-year course and includes the Royal Institute of British Architects (RIBA) Part II and Part III qualifications, which is unique to this pathway at Northumbria. Candidates considering this route must have an ARB Part I qualification, preferably with a 2:1 classification; those who do not will be required to have an interview with the teaching team.

What sets this programme apart from the full-time pathway at Northumbria is that the design projects are based on real-life projects out in the community, or self-directed by the apprentice with the opportunity to explore challenges in the office. This approach facilitates and develops the apprentices’ professional experience, competence and expertise, leading to valuable impact on their career. Employers also benefit from the opportunity to retain and develop exceptional staff, who can develop new skills and knowledge at University for application in the workplace.

The Architect Degree Apprenticeship has been designed at Northumbria to equip apprentices with the attributes needed to thrive in their career, including:

Critical thinking
Independent learning
Producing imaginative solutions
Justifying and communicating design decisions
