The Degree Program in
Architecture and Urban Planning was launched in October 2002 at
Unity University College. The program has received pre-accreditation
from the Ministry of Education. Architecture, with its wide spectrum
of exposure to knowledge and skills, is an eight-semester programme
with one semester totally devoted to apprentice training with
an architects’ office. The course is supported by studio
sessions, site visits and regular seminars by invited guests that
will consist of architects, building materials suppliers, component
importers and specialized equipment suppliers and installation
experts. Under the sponsorship of the school, a club established
by students is responsible for arranging weekly seminars. There
is much creative use of IT and computers in the Architecture profession.
Consistent with the policies of the institution, three semesters
of computer training are given to students. |
