Integrating the final step into your architectural career, this programme serves as the essential gateway to professional registration. By bridging the gap between academic theory and live industry practice, it facilitates your eligibility to join the Architects Registration Board (ARB) register and apply for chartered membership with the Royal Institute of British Architects (RIBA).

Students benefit from a flexible structure that accommodates those already working within the field. You will engage with the INSIDE/OUT lecture series, which draws together influential voices from across the creative arts, architecture, and design sectors. Learning is deeply rooted in the realities of the profession, bolstered by Leeds Beckett’s Project Office—an in-house, RIBA-chartered architectural consultancy that provides a unique environment for professional development.

The course is designed for those who have already completed an ARB/RIBA accredited Part Two qualification. You will be supported by tutors with extensive industry networks and benefit from a pedagogical approach that prioritizes:

• Reflective practice through the Professional Experience and Development Record (PEDR).
• Direct engagement with live project procurement and management.
• Expert guidance on the legal and organizational frameworks governing modern architecture.
