This programme is for students who have a first degree, but do not have RIBA (Royal Institute of British Architects) Part 1 exemption. Most learning is achieved through project work in our studios, computer suites and workshops, complemented by lectures and seminars. However, the heart of the programme is in the design studio, where you learn to become architects through project work. We also emphasise learning through making and reflecting, enabling you to develop your creativity and critical judgement. The Architecture programme at UEL educates you to become a practising architect. You are taught on the atelier or module system, in small groups under the direction of tutors who have freedom to devise their own projects.

The programme is the second stage of architectural education. It is also good preparation for any work in which you need to be able to analyse problems and make creative proposals for their solution. Whoever you are, whatever your background, we want to help you make the most of your time at UEL and ensure that your course will help lead you to where you want to go. UEL's dedicated Employability and Enterprise Team (EET) is on hand to support you throughout your studies and beyond. Not only should your course help lead you to the job you want, but also the skills and experience you gain along the way can prove invaluable both in starting and developing your career.
