Bachelor of Architecture

Overview

A professional bachelor’s degree in architecture enables graduates to practice architecture in a wide range of environments, or to pursue graduate studies in a range of fields including architecture, urban design, urban planning, landscape design, construction management, or related fields.

The program begins with a common foundation year in which students are introduced to design as a general field, from which they proceed into their specialization. It also offers wide exposure to the current issues of both a theoretical and a practical nature, complemented by a number of activities such as international studios, workshops, visiting critics, and exchanges with architecture and design institutes worldwide.

The program may be completed over a minimum of five academic years after the freshman year, including summer terms.
