Bachelor of Arts (Honours) - Architecture and Planning (KK14)

This degree is unique because it's accredited by the Royal Institute of British Architects (RIBA), the Royal Town Planning Institute (RTPI), and the Architects Registration Board (ARB). This is one of five courses that cover different specialisms in architecture. UWE produces sought-after graduates with specialist knowledge and the skill to create exciting buildings.

The degree will build students' creativity and develop their talent for finding solutions to a full range of realistic briefs. It will show them how to integrate technology seamlessly into design ideas and give them the confidence and skills to work in top architecture and planning practices. 

Gain broad-based knowledge and skills in architecture and planning. Work on conceptual and practical projects across different themes. Learn computer-assisted design (CAD), drawing, modelling and mapping. Assess urban design on day trips and residential field trips.

Students apply their learning on a year-long project combining the masterplanning of a complex urban area with rigorous brief development and research, all leading to a final architectural design project.

Work on a six-week agency project in an architect's office, local planning authority, or other appropriate organization. Collaborate with students across related disciplines in an approach reflecting industry.
