Bachelor of Architectural Studies

The University of Auckland

The BAS introduces you to the fundamental aspects of architecture. Through studio courses, real world case studies and future-based speculation projects, you will develop your design skills and creative practice. You will have access to software used in the industry as well as fully-equipped workshops to bring your concepts to life. To become a professional architect, you require the Master of Architecture (Professional) or one of our associated combined masters programmes. This is usually undertaken immediately following the BAS programme. Becoming a practising architect is a common outcome for BAS graduates once registered. However, you can also contribute to the industry as a designer, project manager or consultant, or work in client liaison. Graduates have also been known to utilise their creative thinking in other fields, such as film or web design.
