The Department of Architecture’s professional programme is structured as follows: a three-year Bachelor’s degree in Architectural Studies (BAS), followed by a one- year BAS (Honours) degree and a one-year MArch (Prof) degree in Architecture thereafter. Once you have completed your BAS degree, should you decide not to proceed further, and complying with the South African Council for the Architectural Profession’s (SACAP) practical training and exam requirements, you can register as an architectural technologist. Should you also complete your BAS (Honours) studies and comply with the South African Council for the Architectural Profession’s (SACAP) practical training and exam requirements, you can register as a senior architectural technologist. Only once you have completed the MArch (Professional) degree and have complied with SACAP’s practical training requirements and exam requirements, will you be able to register as a professional architect. The Architectural programmes are SACAP (South African Council for the Architectural Profession) and CAA (Commonwealth Association of Architects) accredited. Please note: Prospective students will only be notified by the admissions office of the outcome of their application once they have met with the department to discuss their portfolio and interviewed for a place in the BAS degree.

The programme equips students with in-depth knowledge and skills in the fields of animal production, plant production, financial management, leadership development and strategic management.
