Bachelor of Arts in Architectural Studies 建築學文學士
BA(AS)
Short Description
The Bachelor of Arts in Architectural Studies [BA(AS)] is a four-year, full-time programme that introduces students to architecture as a cultural discipline. It is the first degree needed to qualify as an architect, and it provides an excellent general education that gives students the confidence to pursue related careers both within the design professions and further afield. The course of study is centred on research-based learning in the design studio and is structured to foster a sense of community, develop deep knowledge of the discipline, and encourage creativity. Design studios look at diverse contemporary issues relevant to Hong Kong and the world and are structured by thematic platforms that introduce students to a range of methodologies and approaches to the territorial, social, technological, urban and environmental issues that address architecture as a cultural discipline.
The BA(AS) programme offers numerous opportunities for knowledge exchange and international experience, such as semester exchanges with leading international schools of architecture, study trips to foundational sites of architecture and urbanism, and hands-on experience through summer field studies workshops. Courses in the programme are offered in the areas of Architectural Design, History and Theory of Architecture, Technology, and Visual Communication.
