Program Description

Learn. Grow. Build. And do it all where creativity, collaboration and vision converge. This accredited five-year degree allows students to pursue professional registration. The program is divided into three phases: Foundation, Core and Research + Innovation, students will need to show competency in Foundation Phase to move to Core Phase, this will be determined by Milestone. The Foundation year is devoted to basic design, hand and computer-aided drawing, an introduction to history and theory of the built environment, and the fundamentals of physics for architects. The five-semester Core develops professional skills and knowledge in history and theory, design communications, building technology and practice, all of which are synthesized in design studios. Finally, the three-semester Research + Innovation phase develops a personal research trajectory through options studios and focused coursework that teaches collaboration and complex design problems, culminating in the student's individual vision demonstrated in a capstone project.
