After completing their BEng studies, our graduates now are qualified<br />
to work as RIBA part 1 Architectural Assistants, usually earning<br />
reasonable salaries. We recommend that students complete one year in<br />
practice before starting a Master’s degree. This year is not a gap year,<br />
as it counts towards the two years of practice experience required to<br />
become a fully qualified architect in the UK. For many students the<br />
first year in practice is a transformative experience, the first step into<br />
doing real architecture.<br />
We recommend our graduate students to work in a renowned, small<br />
or medium sized architectural practice (which are usually much more<br />
educative than the larger firms). Students who complete a practice<br />
year are well prepared to profit more from their studies when they<br />
join our Master’s programme the following year. For many Master’s<br />
programmes overseas one year of practice is a mandatory entry<br />
requirement.<br />
You may choose to work for longer than one year to save money or to<br />
gain additional experience. Other options include taking time out to<br />
work in the wider construction industry, work overseas, volunteer or<br />
travel.<br />
