Course summary

Introduction:

This programme is the next step for professionals who are aiming to achieve postgraduate qualifications equivalent to the Architects Registration Board (ARB) / Royal Institute of British Architects (RIBA) Parts 2 and 3, whilst continuing to gain relevant experience in practice.

Who is this route suitable for?

•

RIBA Part 1 qualified architectural assistants looking to obtain their RIBA Parts 2 and 3 qualifications.

•

Those whose employers have undertaken to support them as apprentices over the four years required to complete the Degree Apprenticeship course.

Why choose a Degree Apprenticeship at NTU?

•

Through new government funding, your employer will be responsible for apprenticeship course fees, meaning that you will not pay University tuition fees.

•

As well as gaining a degree, you'll also benefit from on-the-job training, provided by your employer, opening up early opportunities for career development and progression.

•

You'll have the added advantage of years of relevant work experience, while making industry connections along the way. This could enhance your future employability and boost your career progression.

The course has been prescribed by the ARB. Following completion of the programme, which will be subject to periodic review by the ARB, apprentices will be eligible to apply to join the ARB Register and then may be permitted to designate themselves as ‘architects’ – a legally protected title available only to those named on that register.
