Overview

Carleton’s Bachelor of Architectural Studies focuses on knowledge, experience, creativity and imagination. The program encourages students to explore ideas through making, evaluate ideas within the context of the human experience, and exercise creativity through writing, model making, drawing, digital media and presentations. Carleton’s Azrieli School of Architecture and Urbanism awards the pre-professional Bachelor of Architectural Studies (BAS) degree upon successful completion of their four-year program of study. If students intend to practice architecture, they can then apply to continue into a professional Master of Architecture program at Carleton, or equivalent professional training at another university. The BAS program is also an excellent degree for a range of careers or for further studies in design, urbanism, or conservation and sustainability. The Bachelor of Architectural Studies in Design is for students who are seeking a career in architecture with an emphasis on architectural design. The program explores the theory, practice and culture of architectural design and its relationship with the environment through studio courses, workshops, and lecture courses. The model of architectural education is comprehensive in nature. It prepares students for a future in the practice of architecture but also provides a broad-based foundation for a multitude of interdisciplinary and related design fields. Students in Design learn to handle the conflicting demands of function, aesthetics, technology, fabrication and the economics in building design, and are trained in a variety of representational tools including drawing, model-making, writing, verbal presentations, photography, video and other emerging digital media. Students pursue intensive, studio-based studies supported by courses in Architectural History and Technology.
