Bachelor of Architecture and Environments

Overview

This course prepares students for the diversity of professional roles that graduates of architectural bachelor's degrees are likely to enter, and provides the skills required of the next generation of built environment professionals.

You will learn the practice of architecture and its different contexts through an education that addresses the role of the built environment profession with the full range of professional and business capabilities necessary to achieve successful development of property and infrastructure in a globalised and development-centred economy.
