About this course

Be the architect of your own future

From the Opera House to the humble townhouse, Architects all over the world bring their passion for the environment (natural and built), aesthetics and cutting-edge design to life. UC's Bachelor of Built Environment (Architecture) will connect you with the skills and knowledge necessary to begin your journey towards becoming an architect in a rapidly changing globalised era.

Immerse yourself into an ever-evolving world where ideas are brought to life through design, creativity, digital imagination and technical realisation. Help shape the world around us and make an important contribution to the promotion of a more sustainable built environment.

Discover the power and possibility that comes from working in collaborative Architectural studios while exploring the history and theory, technology, digital production and communication methods embedded in this discipline. Plus, you'll do so while learning from Canberra's unique built environment, one of the most internationally recognised designed cities.

To practice as an accredited architect, you will need to graduate with a Bachelor of Built Environment and undertake UC's Master of Architecture.
