Architecture Apprenticeship (RIBA 2 and 3) - MArch

This course is designed to enable architecture practices to retain talented apprentices, so they may continue to work four days a week in the office whilst studying our Architecture (RIBA 2) - MArch and Examination in Professional Practice (RIBA 3) - PG Cert courses on a part-time basis. Over their four-year postgraduate journey to fully-qualified status as an architect, the apprentice will progress through a combination of work-based training and university study.
Our Architecture Apprenticeship is fully integrated with our long-established and highly-regarded RIBA 2 and RIBA 3 courses. The apprenticeship will lead to the Part 2 award of a Master of Architecture (MArch) (on the successful completion of the first three years of study), and the Part 3 award of PG Certificate in Professional Practice in Architecture (on completion of the end-point assesment in the fourth year of study).

Our students have had considerable success in the Royal Institute of British Architects (RIBA) Awards, winning the RIBA Silver Medal in 2002, 2003 and 2012, together with numerous commendations and other awards.

Architecture at London Met is taught in Aldgate, in east London’s creative heart. Students will benefit from access to all our art and design facilities, which cater to textiles, ceramics, furniture-making, printing, high-end digital reproduction and film-making, as well as photography equipment, workshops and specialised technicians.

The course will include the development of designs and design strategies with regards to wider urban and landscape concerns in central London and beyond. These designs will address the integration of social, cultural and economic as well as environmental and sustainable concerns, preparing apprentices for their futures as architects working in the profession and other parts of the construction industry, both locally and internationally.
