Course overview

Our program is grounded and future-focused, shaping students who care for Country, who are motivated by social and ecological issues, and who explore their potential as agents for change. We are driven by hands-on studio learning, where you will spend most of your time—more than other NSW programs—in our newly refurbished design studio. With options for undertaking a diversity of project briefs as well as exciting, special elective projects, we are committed to developing the best learning experience for our tight-knit student cohort. We work collectively to create a vibrant and engaged design community that centres on our: - 24-hour access Architectural Design Studio - Workshop & Advanced Prototyping Facility - Makerspace and emerging technology PixelSpace Lab - On-Country site experiences We are focused on creating inquisitive, agile, and skilled graduates. To reflect the diverse forms of practice architects are now engaged in, our program is designed to help you become the architect you want to be. You will participate in a range of projects, both guided and self-directed, with the option to pursue a year-long final project of your own conception.
