This Program is no longer accepting new enrolments
The combined BArch BSocSc program which is administered by the Faculty of the Built Environment is no longer available for commencing students from Session 1 2008.
Each of the single degrees is still available to new students. Existing students should discuss their program with representatives of the Architecture Program and the Faculty of Arts and Social Sciences as early as possible. The Faculty of Arts and Social Science section in this Handbook describes the options available and students will need to refer to this section for complete program and course details. There are rules that prescribe what may be taken in each year and students should be aware of the Architecture requirements prior to choosing Social Science preferences. Program Objectives and Learning Outcomes This combined degree allows students to add their choice of a Social Science program to the standard, professionally accredited Architecture program offered by the Faculty of the Built Environment. It provides flexibility in the choice of courses with the full Social Science program and enables students to gain a broad education in Social Science as well as the specialised studies of Architecture. Because Architecture and Social Science programs can have common subject areas, and the Architecture program contains a percentage of open electives, the program requires only one additional session of study to gain the additional qualification of Bachelor of Social Science. In general, the BSocSc courses are taken concurrently with the BArch program so that both can be completed in eleven sessions.
The award of this combined degree demands an amalgamation of the conditions governing both the BArch degree and the BSocSc degree with changes to the requirements for participation in General Education programs and total units of credit. Year 1
