Bachelor of Science in Architecture
Architecture is the art and science of creating space – at the scale of an object like a piece of furniture, a room, a building, a group of buildings, or an entire city. Architects use art, science and technology to shape the way we interact in our buildings and in our cities by designing environments that are aesthetically pleasing, structurally sound, and responsive in every way to the needs of the people who use them.
Students entering the B.Sc.(Arch.) program complete first-year courses in general studies (including sciences, humanities, and social sciences), for which individuals entering with the Québec Diploma of Collegial Studies in Arts and Science or Pure and Applied Science (or equivalent) are generally granted transfer credits.ÌýAll students then complete three more years of courses leading to the B.Sc. (Arch) degree. Please note that the B.Sc.(Arch) is a non-professional degree. Students must also complete the M.Arch. degree to enter the path toward professional licensure.ÌýApplicants whose background includes a university degree in an area not related to Architecture should also apply to the B.Sc.(Arch.) program.
