Bachelor of Architectural Studies - Architecture (Co-op)

In one of North America’s top schools of architecture, students will get a broad education that covers everything from building materials and construction techniques to cultural history, social context, green architecture, and more. Not to mention students will combine it all with paid co-op work experience.

However, the core of pre-professional program is design courses, starting right in year one. Students get their own dedicated space in the University of Waterloo’s studio where Students will develop their ideas and skills through a series of hands-on projects. Students will learn about society and culture, the principles of physics, materials and techniques of construction, human interaction with the natural and built environment, critical thought, and the diverse forms of creative expression.

It all happens in a beautiful historic building in the city of Cambridge, about 30 kilometres south of the main Waterloo campus, complete with labs, exhibition galleries, and a world-class design library.
