There are two strands to the course; Architecture and Architecture (International). Both have a highly distinctive approach to the subject, allowing you to explore different cultural regions and design your own innovative, beautiful, humane and sustainable architecture in response. The social nature of the course means that you’ll experience ideas and influences that are as diverse as they are creative. Why study Architecture? * Both strands will give you an opportunity to explore the complex regional, cultural, ethical and environmental issues that’ll underpin your development as an architect. The International strand provides the option to do this through an extended field study to a non-European location. * Upon graduating you'd be able to work in a wide range of architectural practices and could be sought after for your practical ability and creative flair. You’ll be well prepared to work in a professional environment and ready to progress to the next stage of your architectural career. * The course is recognised by the Architects Registration Board (ARB), the body that regulates the architects’ profession in the UK. Good news if you’re hoping to continue on to be an architect, as you have to register with the ARB to be able to practise using the title ‘architect’ in the UK. Our course is also validated by the Royal Institute of British Architects (RIBA). In fact, if you graduate, you’ll then gain exemption from RIBA’s Part 1 Professional Examinations. We offer RIBA Part 1, 2 and 3 qualifications here at Huddersfield. If you choose to take the International option in your final year, the extended field trip is compulsory and you’ll have to fund your own place. Just to give you an idea, the average cost of the trip in the past few years has been around £1,400 per student. Recent visits have included Vietnam, Malaysia, India and China. Additional Costs: Field Trips: Inspirational field trips to destinations of educational and cultural significance are a component of the course and will be funded by the University. If you opt for the optional European module in second year, the field trip to a European location will not be covered by the University and will be covered by the student. We estimate this to be in the region of £300/£350. For the international route of the course in the final year, an extended overseas field study trip is a compulsory component of the BA(Hons) Architecture (International) degree programme. This cost will be covered by the student and not covered by the University. Previous destinations and costs in recent years include: Vietnam, 25 days, approx. £1,396 China, 21 days, approx. £1,451 per student Materials: You will need to supply your own materials during the course. These include sketchbooks, drawing equipment, materials for producing models and printing. The approximate cost of these items in recent years has been £500 in year one, £375 in year two and £575 in the final year. These costs may vary based on the materials you choose and the approximate costs are given as a guide only. Professional links and accreditation: This course is prescribed by the Architects Registration Board (ARB) (http://www.arb.org.uk/), which regulates the architects’ profession in the UK and ensures the course meets the required standards of the profession. This was approved in September 2016 and will be reviewed in September 2020. And is also validated by the Royal Institute of British Architects (RIBA) (http://www.architecture.com/RIBA/Home.aspx) to provide exemption from the Part 1 examinations. This was approved in September 2016 and will be reviewed in September 2021. Qualification as an architect requires a further two years' study after the BA(Hons) degree (RIBA Part 1), plus periods in practice, leading to a Master of Architecture/Architecture (International) and Postgraduate Certificate of Professional Practice and Management in Architecture (RIBA Parts 2 and 3).
