At UCSI University, we believe that creativity, curiosity and strong intellectual grounding are fundamental aspects of an architectural education. As students, you will thrive as you develop a sense of both breadth and depth through courses infused with market-driven software
. These courses, from building construction and technology to the history of architecture, will equip you with creative design and practical skills. You will also benefit from yearly visits to architectural sites in Asia including Bali, Taiwan, Sri Lanka, Korea, Tokyo and Beijing, for example. As a graduate, you will leave with a desire to make a positive contribution to the lives of people and the environments in which they live
Architecture is an art form - the learning of which requires professional practice, personal artistic development and technical knowledge of a building. The constant dialogue between society and the architect is what produces architecture - as a product and as a discipline.
The School of Architecture and Built Environment understands that all those who study and work in the field of architecture need a framework for aesthetics and a functional appreciation for buildings and context. This can only be achieved via a thorough grounding in the design process, building sciences and technologies allied to an understanding of the important social, cultural, artistic, and historical factors which influence architecture. This philosophy underpins every teaching and research programme delivered at the School.
Architecture at UCSI University places strong emphasis on the importance of hand-making and the design process. We value architecture not as a finished object alone, but as an evolving body of work—often incomplete—where the explorative journey is made visible and meaningful.
Our hands-on approach to poetic space-making is driven by exploratory model-making, supported by digital and mixed-media drawings. This methodology encourages students to think through making, allowing ideas to emerge, transform, and mature through continuous testing, iteration, and reflection.
The architecture programme develops both academic understanding and practical skills required for careers in the professional field. Graduates will be equipped for careers in the broad field of design in the built environment sector.
This programme is recognised as LAM Accredited Architecture Part 1. All of UCSI University’s Architecture & Interior Architecture degree programmes comply with the latest requirements for accreditation by the Council of Architectural Accreditation & Education Malaysia (CAAEM), Lembaga Arkitek Malaysia (LAM).
