Course summary
Gain two professional qualifications, in architecture and landscape architecture, with this unique three year honours degree. The dual degree course is an exciting and challenging programme which explores the integrated design of buildings and the wider landscape environment. Gain a professional qualification from both the Royal Institute of British Architects and the Landscape Institute, with the first integrated degree of its kind in the world. Studying architecture and landscape at Sheffield offers a unique opportunity to become a leading architect, landscape architect or urban designer of the future. The programme leads to qualifications in both disciplines, making for highly employable graduates with truly holistic and critical awareness of the built environment. In the first year you will develop proposals for a small building in a public landscape. By the third year the building and its environment will be more complex and will focus on a substantial piece of urban design. Teaching is delivered by staff from both departments at the forefront of their field, informing a rich learning environment, and inspiring your studio-based design projects. Why study this course?
- World-leading accreditation - the course is accredited by the Landscape Institute (LI), the Royal Institute of British Architects (RIBA) and Architects Registration Board (ARB), making it the only such course in the world.
- Uniquely employable - the profession is keen to employ graduates from the course because of their unique dual educational experience. The course has run for over twenty years and produces highly skilled alumni, working at some leading UK and globally significant architectural and landscape practices.
- Option to continue - graduates can continue their dual accreditation with our MArch Architecture and Landscape Architecture (MALA) course, which has accreditation from RIBA and LI.
