BECOMING AN ARCHITECT
While an architecture degree can lead on to a wide range of careers, the Cambridge BA in Architecture course also carries Part 1 ARB/RIBA status. This is the first stage of qualifying to become an architect, which the majority of our students decide to pursue. You can find out about the full path that leads to becoming an architect here.
