Design (Architecture)

The planet is now changing. New technology is still emerging. Architects are facing exciting challenges and creating astounding structures that are inspirational the cities into their future. The way we live and work tomorrow will likely probably soon be different to today. And architects are setting the direction. Architecture in QUT is increasingly being recognised globally for its attention on innovation in design and sustainable improvement. Students will be motivated and empowered to produce surroundings with a favorable impact on general health, environmental quality, social connections and urban systems. They will study sustainable systems and, even in studio settings, undertake architectural design projects with a practical advantage that'll take them to think logically and creatively about how buildings function and so therefore are assembled. Upon graduation, students may progress on a Master of Architecture and gain the necessary practical experience to become an architect.

This course, along with the next Master of Architecture course, has received full accreditation from the Architects Accreditation Council of Australia, and full Comprehension from the Australian Institute of Architects. Graduates qualify for membership of the Design Institute of Australia (DIA), the professional body for Australian designers.
