Overview
The Architecture course at Nottingham Trent University aims to provide easy access to professional, work-related and educational advice, at the same time as monitoring and helping you interpret your practice-based experience.
This is recognised by the RIBA and the Architects Registration Board (ARB) as part of the UK system for ensuring high quality entrants to the profession. Whilst not a mandatory requirement for progression, it's an excellent opportunity for formal support from leading academics.
