Preparing for Practice

The next "Preparing for practice" event will take place on 26 August 2026

RSUA, in partnership with Architecture at Queen’s and ARCex, each year invites all Part 3 students due to take their exams in September to “Preparing for practice”, which is an informal pre-exam discussion led by experts in their respective fields.

Whilst this event is focussed on helping Part 3 students prepare for their final exams it also provides a useful refresher to any recently qualified architects and Part 2 students. Indeed, all architects and architecture students are welcome to attend.

The event this year will take place from 2.30pm - 5pm on 26 August 2026 in the Conor Lecture Theatre in Ulster University. More details about speakers and topics covered at this years' event will be provided in the coming weeks.
