International Year One- Architecture

International Year One in Architecture is designed for international students who wish to develop the academic knowledge, creative skills, and technical understanding required to progress directly to the second year of an undergraduate architecture degree. The programme provides a strong foundation in architectural design, visual communication, construction technology, architectural history and theory, sustainability, digital design, and design thinking. Students also develop essential academic, research, presentation, and problem-solving skills needed for success at university.Through studio-based projects, creative design exercises, model-making, and practical learning experiences, students gain an understanding of how architecture shapes the built environment and responds to social, cultural, and environmental challenges. The programme encourages innovation, creativity, and critical thinking while preparing students for further study in architecture and related design disciplines.

Upon successful completion, students can typically progress directly to the second year of a bachelor's degree in:

• Architecture
• Architectural Engineering
• Interior Architecture
• Urban Design
• Landscape Architecture
• Built Environment Studies
