The Bachelor in Architecture (BA) at De Montfort University is about developing the skills and knowledge to have a real impact in our community and the world around us – students will create buildings of the future that offer innovative solutions to the global climate emergency.
They will learn about the history of architecture and design, alongside completing technical, practical and professional exercises relating to ethical architecture in the commercial world. Teaching and learning focuses on the design studio, where they will undertake projects in a range of spatial, social and topographical settings, from the smallest of residences and objects through to complex megacities and events. They will work in partnership with students across our built environment courses like they will in professional practice.
Learners will discover how to bring their designs to life by exploring and experimenting with model-making and software. They will be taught by both academic researchers and current practitioners so that current industry thinking feeds into their learning.
90% go on to work and/or study 15 months after the course.
The Bachelor in Architecture (BA) course is professionally validated, preparing students for a postgraduate degree in Architecture, which most graduates will progress onto.
