2-Term Undergraduate Foundation Pathway in Art and Design - Continue to Bachelor of Arts (Honours) - Architecture

HIC offers University Foundation Studies for candidates who do not meet the direct entry criteria or hold high school qualifications that are not recognised. Upon successful completion of the pathway programme students will progress onto the University of Hertfordshire. This course has been developed in accordance with industry guidelines to give students a professionally grounded, challenging and creative education, focusing on architecture, principles of urbanism, landscape and building construction. They’ll work within a professional, studio-based architectural environment on a variety of industry projects, including houses, shops, museums, public buildings, squares, cities and civic centres. Students will also visit and analyse places and engage with the social, political and economic factors that influence architecture and society. By working individually and in multidisciplinary teams, they’ll gain an understanding of cultural and urban conditions, learn how to improve the built environment and develop a sharp commercial awareness of the architecture industry.
