Course summary
Take your first step towards becoming an architect with our BSc Architecture course. Both leading academics and innovative, practising architects will teach you.You will benefit from seven-day-a-week access to dedicated studio spaces in a newly refurbished building and the use of facilities equipped with digital technologies. The course comprises half design studios and design briefs and half lecture-based taught courses. Design projects aim to enable you to prepare a digital and physical portfolio. In contrast, lectures are designed to develop your understanding of core academic subjects and practical skills as part of your taught curriculum. Meanwhile, optional field trips to responsibly accessible cities such as London, Amsterdam, Venice or Paris will allow you to look at architecture in a new light. We have particular expertise in a range of subjects related to our research area of 'urban living', including urban regeneration, housing, mapping cities and places, and digital and analogue representation of buildings and cities.We are part of the renowned School of the Built Environment, which has strong research and industry links and is the joint fifth highest-ranking UK university for Architecture and Built Environment (QS World Rankings by Subject 2023) and sixth in the UK for research power in Architecture, Built Environment and Planning (Times Higher Education, Institutions Ranked by Subject, based on its analysis of the latest REF 2021).
ScholarshipsAs part of the cohort joining the BSc Architecture course in 2025, you will have the opportunity to secure an annual £1,000 scholarship for each of the three years of the undergraduate degree (subject to conditions).
