Architecture at Kingston University is centred on design, reflecting the course's context within an art-and-design-based department. The curriculum builds on the fundamental creative processes of observation and making, and its ethos could be summarised as ‘thinking through making'.
This course is validated by the Royal Institute of British Architects (RIBA) and prescribed by the Architects Registration Board (ARB). Completion of this degree automatically gives RIBA Part 1 exemption – the first step on the road to becoming a professional architect. The course is also recognised as a portable first degree, which enables graduates to move into a wide range of other fields.
Student Nana talks about studying the Architecture BA(Hons):
Kingston upon Thames is only 25 minutes from central London and has been consistently reported as the safest borough in London (Metropolitan Police, 2013) and the happiest place to live in Greater London (Rightmove, 2013)! Located on the River Thames in an affluent part of south-west London, it's no surprise Kingston is the ideal student location.
