Further study
We offer a wide range of postgraduate courses. There are opportunities for you to continue your studies in management, construction and property-related fields.

You will learn how buildings work, and be encouraged to take both a practical and imaginative approach to creating efficient solutions to building design problems. Architectural technologists need to be informed about a wide range of issues such as construction, aesthetics, human behaviour and legal constraints. The expectation is to equip you, as a graduate, with all these skills along with other qualities of professionalism and cultural awareness. The third year is spent in industry or professional practice gaining relevant work experience.

The architectural technology course is accredited by the Chartered Institute of Architectural Technologists (CIAT) and qualifies graduates for membership of CIAT as an Associate Member (ACIAT). In due course, it is then possible to progress to full membership as a Chartered Architectural Technologist (MCIAT) following completion of a Professional and Occupational Performance (POP) record and a professional practice interview.
