Why study Bachelor of Architectural Design?

Architects provide leadership in the design and construction of the built environment, collaborating with engineers, builders and other design professionals. This course offers a program of education in the discipline of architecture. It is the first in a two degree program intended for students who wish to qualify for practice as an architect. The first semester of first year involves the drawing and theory units common to design students, and the faculty-wide health and safety unit. There is also an 'architecture workshop' that involves an introduction to workshop and studio skills and safe practices, and the foundation architecture design studio, which incorporates the concept of 'making architecture'.
