Architecture (Study Abroad) (Hons) Lancaster University

Overview

Tackling three key areas: future practice, digital crafts and the climate emergency, this Architecture (Study Abroad) (Hons) course from Lancaster University will teach you to build with sustainability in mind and design innovative spaces that match the needs of the communities that will use them.

With sustainability at the heart of all that we teach, we empower students to search for innovative solutions that repurpose materials and extend the lifecycle of buildings. We help students to become pioneers of future technologies like digital fabrication, rapid prototyping and the maker movement. During the course we take advantage of Lancaster’s local surroundings, exploring areas such as the Lake District to address place-based issues, landscapes and contexts.
