International applicants are required to demonstrate proficiency in English. An IELTS score of 6.0 with no band below 5.5 is proof of this.
Behind every grand design is great technique. In our increasingly digital-driven built environment, a degree in Architectural Design and Technology is a route to a rewarding career making those amazing design concepts a reality. By applying high-level design skills and sophisticated applications, architectural technologists carry a concept through to its final design. So, if you’re fascinated by the technical side of architecture, our Chartered Institute of Architectural Technologists (CIAT) accredited course will lead you through the technical, operational and environmental details of building creation.
Drawing on our strong industry connections and competencies, you’ll appreciate architectural theory as you complete practical design projects, delivered in a collaborative studio culture that reflects contemporary architecture practice and workplaces. As you build BIM and CAD design skills, work on live briefs and learn to manage design information, you’ll realise the value of robust design in transforming our built environment.
