Course summary
Our BA (Hons) Interior Architecture degree course at UCA Canterbury is a hands-on experience from day one, with ongoing exposure to current industry practice and lots of opportunities to develop your network. Everything you do on this course will be driven by your developing understanding of "the building" - its technology, its style, its possibilities. We will focus heavily on the use of actual sites and real industry projects, so you’ll get a visceral sense of having visualised and transformed a space. Our facilities include the high-end technology you’ll need to visualise your ideas in VR and 3D environments, and we work extensively with property owners, councils, and other clients, so you can expect to be pitching ideas and engaging with stakeholders ona regular basis. This technical degree will appeal to you if you enjoy focusing on the details of how spaces work, are interested in sustainability and retrofitting, and want to design sophisticated schemes that represent the values and needs of the people who will use them.

Additional fee information
If you are classified as a Home student and qualify for the government-regulated undergraduate tuition fee, you will be charged a single tuition fee for each academic year. Our policy is to charge the maximum regulated fee. To reflect increased costs of delivery and maintain a high-quality student experience, we will therefore increase fees in line with any uplift determined by the UK Government by law or government policy in the second and subsequent years of your course. Such increases are usually linked to inflation and determined using RPIX (the Retail Price Index excluding mortgage interest payments).
For all other students, your tuition fees may increase in the second and subsequent years of your course. Any increase in fees will be in line with inflation as measured by the RPIX but in any event by not more than 5%.
We will notify you of any fee increase by no later than July before the start of the next academic year.
