Complete your degree, open new doors
Not everyone takes the same route into university, and that’s ok. Whether you’ve completed a HND and want to top-up to a full degree, or you’ve completed two years of Architecture elsewhere and are ready to finish your degree with us, then look no further. This course gives you the opportunity to complete your journey and achieve your goals.
In your top-up year, you’ll study third year modules from our Architecture BA (Hons) degree, equipping you with the specialist knowledge and practical skills demanded in civil engineering.
Studying with us will help you determine your own interests and find your individual voice. We will also introduce you to the necessary skills for professional practice. When you successfully graduate, you will have completed the first step towards becoming a qualified architect.
