Dundee offers a perfect setting for architecture studies, thanks to its innovative spirit and ongoing urban transformation.
You'll acquire fundamental expertise in design principles, communication techniques, architectural heritage, and eco-friendly technologies.
Being integrated with the University's art school provides access to top-tier facilities, creative workshops, and an inspiring studio environment. Most design instruction and learning occurs within our dedicated architecture studio space.
We promote practical experimentation, allowing you to explore concepts through both traditional and digital media, including sketches, 3D models, and prototypes.
Learning occurs in intimate studio settings with personalized guidance from practicing architect-tutors, fostering a nurturing educational experience.
Our program includes international study opportunities, with recent student engagements in cities like Paris, Shanghai, Venice, and beyond since 2018.
UK architectural qualification requires five years of study followed by 24 months of professional practice.
Most students structure this as:
three academic years (ARB/RIBA Part 1)
one practice year
two academic years (ARB/RIBA Part 2)
additional practical experience
International students requiring a Student visa must complete the 24-month practice requirement after their five academic years, necessitating a separate visa application post-graduation.
