Our award-winning architecture department enjoys an international reputation for excellence and for producing architects who combine technical skills with practical experience. We believe architecture is about engagement. Rather than sitting in a studio designing buildings theoretically you will go out and work on projects in the local area - a thriving, dynamic part of London with huge infrastructure developments. You will fulfil your creative potential and perfect your skills by working on designs that tackle real-life issues not just in East London but around the world.You will learn to ask radical questions, explore social responsibility and decide how you're going to make an impact as an architect. At the University of East London, we're exploring critical topics like tackling climate change, building sustainably and creating community spaces through well-crafted architecture.Our studio, where the majority of teaching takes place, is a unique and intense environment where you will work with an extensive array of equipment.We have wood, plaster, metal, photography and print-making workshops and a full digital fabrication lab with 3D printers, laser cutters and CNC and an industrial-grade robot arm. Most of your design project work will evolve in these studios and workshops. The University of East London is one of the few universities to have this level of workshop incorporated inside your teaching spaces.With our MArch behind you, you will be fully prepared to become a qualified architect. Our course is fully accredited and grants you a Part 2 exemption from the ARB/RIBA professional examinations.You will graduate from a course that enjoys an international reputation for producing award-winning designers capable of producing complex architectural proposals with skill and sensitivity. The skills you will acquire - superior analysis, creative thinking, technological expertise and draughtsmanship - will serve you well in a variety of work environments.
