Overview

The structure of the Bachelor of Architecture programme from The Glasgow School of Art course focuses on the design, making and testing of buildings, to develop the fundamental design skill set that enables students to conceptualise and present architectural proposals that nurture people and the planet.

Key Facts

While Year 4 of the Programme is focussed on Glasgow, the first three years explore the rural conditions of Scotland’s landscape and the built response. Students encounter real world issues and work on projects at a range of scales that address the climate emergency in social, cultural and technological terms as well as exploring the health and safety issues associated with the making of buildings. The Bachelor of Architecture programme is a collaborative course where students have the opportunity to work with students from disciplines across the wider Glasgow School of Art as well as other construction professions from partner institutions. The Bachelor of Architecture programme leads to an Ordinary after 3 years or Honours degree after 4 years, and to exemption from Part 1 of the Examination in Architecture of the ARB/ RIBA at the end of Year 3 full-time study or Year 4 part-time study. Full-time students normally undertake a year of practical training in an approved architect's office between Years 3 and 4.
