Professional Insights Programme

Professional Insights Programme for 2nd Year Undergraduates

In partnership with Belfast’s two schools of architecture, RSUA hosts the Professional Insights Programme.

The aim of the programme is to give undergraduate students an initial understanding of the real-life work of an architect. This will help students better connect their current studies to their future professional life. The programme is open to second year undergraduate architecture students studying at Queen’s University Belfast and Ulster University.

Students are partnered with architecture practices who will provide a minimum of six hours contact time to the students. The programme aims to provide an insight into:

• On-site activity
• Interaction between client/user and architect
• Working with other professions
• Planning and/or building regulations
• Resourcing and business administration
• Winning work and/or procurement
• The process of material selection
• For more information on the Professional Insights Programme please contact Jude Faloon (jude@rsua.org.uk).
