About this programme

The Bachelor of Architectural Design emphasizes the design studio as central to the curriculum with supporting history and theory, communication, materials and construction and environmental design units. The course is structured to develop theoretical knowledge, design proficiency, and communication techniques applicable to architecture and the built environment; including the practical skills of computer aided design for the preparation of architectural design and documentation drawings. Each semester builds on the knowledge and skills gained in the previous semester applied to projects of increasing complexity across the three years. There is particular emphasis placed on the environmental design for architecture in tropical, desert and temperate climates.
