Discover architectural ideas through cutting-edge content, develop your creativity and gain a practical understanding of the built environment and its relationship with the community through meaningful and sustainable design. This five-year course provides a packaged education pathway for those interested in pursuing architectural professional registration. You will gain practical skills in a studio environment and develop your ability to communicate your design ideas under the guidance of passionate staff.

From the first year and throughout your studies, you will explore innovative design ideas in response to real-world scenarios and present your ideas for consideration by registered architects. This practical, applied and industry-connected approach to learning ensures you receive feedback and insight into your work from professional practitioners with local and global architecture experience.

A WAM of less than 55 results in an alternative exit from D306 Bachelor of Design (Architecture)/Master of Architecture with the award: S342 Bachelor of Design (Architecture).
