Architecture with International Foundation Year - September Entry University of Reading

Overview

This Architecture with International Foundation Year - September Entry BSc programme from the University of Reading is designed for international students. If you want to study architecture at a British university but don’t have the correct qualifications, our four-year BSc Architecture with International Foundation Year programme enables you to undertake an undergraduate architecture degree.

You will complete a foundation year (called Year 0) and will meet accreditation requirements before progressing onto our three-year BSc Architecture degree. This normally means you can apply for a single four-year visa that covers the whole duration of your studies.

The foundation year is designed to equip you with the subject-specific and general study skills needed to cope with the demands of undergraduate study. Our high-quality teaching is geared towards the needs of students from a wide range of educational backgrounds.

As a BSc (Hons) Architecture graduate you could work as an architectural assistant and, after further training, an architect. You will also be well-placed to move into other careers within the sector, such as project management, planning, estate management, surveying, and urban design. Other opportunities include careers in the gaming industry, graphic design, and interior design.
