The architecture degree at Huddersfield has a highly distinctive approach to the subject based upon the exploration of places and cultures around the world. You will have the opportunity to explore different cultural regions and design your own innovative, beautiful, humane and sustainable architecture in response.
Huddersfield is a multi-cultural town and the international student population of the University is large and diverse. Architecture in particular attracts applicants from all over the world. This is a real strength of the course, as you will study alongside others from a wide range of cultural and educational backgrounds. The social nature of the course means that you will experience ideas and influences that are as diverse as they are creative. There are two strands to the course, Architecture and Architecture (International). Both will give you an opportunity to explore the complex regional, cultural, ethical and environmental issues that will underpin your development as an architect.
It’s also validated by the Royal Institute of British Architects (RIBA). In fact, if you graduate you will then gain exemption from RIBA’s Part 1 Professional Examinations. That’s the first of three examinations you need to pass to qualify and register as an architect, all of which you can undertake here at Huddersfield. So you could be well on the way towards your chosen profession.
