Course summary
Architects are experts in the design of buildings and places, providing the setting for human life. Their primary skill is turning design concepts into reality. They work with engineers, contractors and other professionals to create sustainable, imaginative environments. This course embodies a fresh approach to architectural education that is rooted in its locality but with a broad global perspective.The course is the first stage (Part One) of the three-stage process of qualification for architects. It is validated by the Royal Institute of British Architects (RIBA) and prescribed by the Architects Registration Board (ARB). The teaching maintains a balance between theoretical and practical aspects of architectural training. Architecture is about meeting the needs of people in ways that respect their culture combined with the advances of technology and contemporary design.Within the studio, we teach a wide range of skills: freehand drawing, surveying, CAD and model making. We also employ specialist part-time staff to develop specific skills, such as CAD and graphic composition. You will be encouraged to explore and develop a design, firstly by working in small groups and secondly by developing your own individual approach to design.Architecture is fundamentally about meeting the needs of people in ways that respect their culture and values and the character and traditions of their communities - while offering them the best that new technology and contemporary international design culture can contribute to the shaping of their environment.The course is the first stage (Part One) of the three-stage process of professional qualification as an architect.The course is prescribed by the Architects Registration Board (ARB) and Validated by RIBA (Royal Institute of British Architects).
