Studying our BA (Hons) Architecture course is a lively, progressive and creative experience that will enable you to learn from a group of more than fifty highly successful and dedicated architects, designers and engineers. This course is ranked in the top five Architecture courses in the Guardian’s University Guide 2017. Our course is prescribed by the Architects Registration Board (ARB) and validated by the Royal Institute of British Architects (RIBA). It also offers progression to a fully-validated UCA Master of Architecture (MArch) course as well as the Professional Practice in Architecture postgraduate certificate. Our alumni have secured rewarding careers nationally and internationally for more than 60 years – many of our graduates typically progress to one-year paid placements at architects’ offices before continuing their studies at Masters level. Recent employment opportunities have included work at the offices of Zaha Hadid, Norman Foster, Will Alsop, and Sauerbruch Hutton, as well as local architects’ practices such as Clague Architects and Lee Evans Partnership, both of which are located in Canterbury.
