| When I took Architecture many years ago, it was a 6 year BArch program, the first year of which consisted of purely engineering based courses. However, we recieved two degrees: a B Sc (Arch) after the 4th year and the prof degree B Arch after 2 more years. This extra degree gave those students, who decided Arch was not for them, the option of continuing studies or applying to a Masters in other fields. Several in my class did switch...to med or engineering for example. I don't think this track exists anymore, at least that I know of, but it worked well then. |
