The BA (Hons) Architecture programme, validated by the UK Architectural Registration Board (ARB Part I), serves as the initial pathway to a career as a registered architect or in related fields. It is structured around four streams: design studio, technology and environment, cultural context, and professional studies. The curriculum progresses through themed years, starting with 'Creation and Imagination' in the first year, followed by 'Building, Dwelling, Thinking'; the second year explores 'Architecture and Strategy' and 'Architecture and Ideology'; and the third year addresses 'Architecture and The Public Realm' leading to an 'Integrated Architectural Project'. Key elements include developing skills in perceiving, conceiving, and creating architecture; critically appraising tangible and intangible aspects; fostering independent design abilities; and integrating collaborative, technical, and theoretical studies.Upon completion, graduates acquire transferable skills meeting ARB Part I benchmarks, preparing them for professional roles. Through partnerships with firms like Feilden+Mawson and Purcell, students engage with industry experts, and alumni have earned accolades such as RIBA East Awards. The programme emphasises assessment via portfolios and research, with further details available on the university's website.
