Architecture and the Built Environment

Better Places, By Design

Architecture and the Built Environment at Lincoln bring together creativity, technology, and sustainable thinking to help you reimagine the spaces we live, work, and connect in.

You’ll learn to design with purpose, exploring how buildings and places can support communities, respond to environmental challenges, and reflect the needs of a rapidly changing world. With access to industry-standard tools and teaching informed by emerging sector trends, you’ll develop the technical and conceptual skills to contribute to a more sustainable and human-centred built environment.

Developing Your Career

Our links with local design practices and key organisations in the construction industry provide opportunities for our undergraduate students to work on live briefs and benefit from work experience. We aim to develop the highest professional standards and to nurture confident graduates who will make a positive difference in the world. To help our graduates build these skills, architecture at Lincoln is part of the well-established RIBA student mentoring scheme. Third-year BArch Architecture students are paired with architects in the Midlands region and can gain experience over a series of days, with opportunities for site visits to observe how architects work.

This course is more than just seeing what exists already within the discipline and duplicating it - it's about taking that as inspiration and creating your own contribution to the world of interior architecture.
