Bachelor
The architects of the future will embody solutions-driven thinking through the implementation of innovative design and new technologies to make an impact on the major issues of our time - climate change, population growth, and rapid urbanisation.
At Bond University, the future of architectural design is already underway at the Abedian School of Architecture. As one of Australia's only dedicated design studios for architecture students, the ASA building inspires with its soaring windows, floating mezzanine, internal streets and 'scoops', it provides the ideal setting to inspire innovation, creativity, and a new style of learning.
Forget lecture theatres and classrooms: You will have your own assigned desk and workspace in an open-plan studio. You will have exclusive unrivalled access to computing and fabrication laboratories, a digital robotics laboratory, traditional workshops and an impressive events and exhibition space.
You will use 3D printers, large format laser cutters, CNC routers and industrial robot arms to create scale models, prototypes, and installations. You'll collaborate with colleagues from Years 1, 2 and master's levels to develop blue-sky designs for urban and residential futures. And, in Bond's small group classes, you'll be mentored throughout by internationally acclaimed designers, award-winning architects and globally connected academic practitioners.
In addition to building the core design and application skills, Bond's Bachelor of Design in Architecture incorporates broader elements of construction, urban planning, digital media and even film. You will also develop the all-important people skills that are essential to dealing with clients, contractors, and stakeholders - time management, communication, team management, self-criticism, and spatial intelligence.
