**Course Overview**
- Our cutting-edge RIBA-accredited BSc (Hons) Architecture course provides you with a comprehensive grounding in design and building technology.
- Based at the University’s Grenfell-Baines Institute of Architecture, we provide an innovative, creative and critical architectural education which explores the pressing issues of our time from a local and global perspective. We’ll provide you with an expansive grounding in design, theory, history and building technology.
