Architectural Technology & Building Performance - MSc -Full-Time course is built around the knowledge and current applied research of three of the University's key research units; the Building Performance Centre, Scottish Energy Centre and the Centre for Timber Engineering.

The Architecture  - BA course is designed to provide a balanced education involving a theoretical base, design work and professional experience. Our design studio acts as a laboratory for testing creative and critical ideas, and developing fundamental architectural skills. Lectures and design teaching are delivered by people at the forefront of their field.

The BArch provides the first stage in the seven-year education of an architect. This three-year programme is followed by one year's supervised professional experience before embarking upon the two year DipArch (see DipArch for further details) which leads to Architects' Registration Board (ARB)/Royal Institute of British Architects RIBA Part Two level. Full professional status as an architect is achieved after a further year's professional experience and a Part Three-level exam.

The Architecture (BSc (Hons)) prepares you to enter the profession through the development of your spatial imagination in relation to an architectural knowledge base. It prepares you by developing and broadening the basis for thinking about making architecture in practice.

The Architecture (Design) MArch is the core skill of the architect, yet research shows that the time devoted to design diminishes as the practising architect progresses through his or her career. This course is designed to redress this balance.

The MArch programme furthers your creative development through looking at ways of harnessing practice techniques and experience to find poetic readings and make a more architectural response.
