Program description
The Architecture department is inspired by a synthesis of science, technology, and the arts. Students are schooled in the professional knowledge and skills required of tomorrow's successful architects, including sophisticated design skills, sensitivity to the requirements of the human race, awareness of the environment, and a research, questioning, and reflecting approach. During their university years, students are given every opportunity to fulfil their full potential. English is the language of instruction. Classrooms and well-equipped laboratories, as well as design studios that are industry-leading, are available for theoretical and practical classes.
Architecture graduates may work as designers in both the public and private sectors. They can work as project managers or as practitioners. They can also start their own businesses to work on their own, planning and implementing projects for public or private sector organisations.
