Overview

On the two-year Architecture programme from Newcastle University you'll engage with challenging ideas and theories, tackle meaningful problems through creative and exploratory design and research.

This diverse programme is structured around vertical design studios taught across both stages of the programme.

Each studio sets an agenda and brief and will help you to develop and apply critical thinking, practical tools and methods to your own design process.

Through our elective modules you'll work closely with academics in the School and contribute to:

emerging research on material sciences and cultures

processes and practices of architecture

environmental sustainability

histories of architecture

Being part of the School of Architecture, Planning and Landscape means you can also take optional modules in Urban Design and Planning, offering an accelerated route to accredited masters in these disciplines following the MArch.

This is a modular MArch programme based on design project work. Lectures and seminars examine the theoretical, practical and material dimensions of architecture.
