Program Description

The School of Architecture UL offers a 5-year Bachelor in Architecture (BArch). The objective of the School is to educate architects with a strong set of integrated skills, balanced with a clear understanding of the environment - built, existing and imagined - and vital to professional practice.

The program is designed to equip you with a broad range of skills fundamental to becoming an architect. These skills include hand drawing, sketching, model-making, photography, computer-aided drawing, audiovisual and verbal presentation, as well as core skills including conceptualising and designing, problem-solving and working with other people.

The Royal Institute of Architects of Ireland (RIAI) has awarded full accreditation to the architecture program at UL. Studying architecture in an accredited program is the first step towards becoming a registered professional architect.
