This course adopts an innovative approach to teaching, designed to help you explore your capabilities and guide you towards establishing an individual direction within creative practices in our School of Art, Architecture and Design.
The intensive foundation year will be shared with other students in the School and will help you develop knowledge and skills related to a range of specialist undergraduate degree programmes. In your first term you'll start by taking part in a range of short studio and workshop projects in visual imagery and practical making. The following term will cover spatial and orthogonal drawing, inhabitation, materials, process, modelling, structure, scale and surface.
The subsequent three years of your studies will be shared with students starting their studies on the three-year course. To learn more about the course content during the final three years please visit our Interior Architecture and Design BA (Hons) course page.
If you'd like to change your specialism following the foundation year, there will be flexibility to allow you to do this.

About this course
Our Interior Architecture and Design (including foundation year) BA (Hons) is designed to help you build a portfolio of work, while developing the skills necessary to begin an undergraduate degree.
This course is also a gateway into an undergraduate degree if you don't meet the necessary requirements for the three-year course.
On graduation you'll be able to work in design or architectural practices or continue your studies at postgraduate level.
In addition to the University's standard entry requirements, you should have:
at least one A level (or a minimum of 32 UCAS points from an equivalent Level 3 qualification, eg BTEC Subsidiary/National/BTEC Extended Diploma)
English Language GCSE at grade C/4 or above (or equivalent)
You will need to attend an interview with your portfolio of creative work. If you live outside of the UK, you will be required to submit a small portfolio of work via email.
