Re: Re: Study Architecture as a Mature Student!

Sounds a bit like my situation. I was always interested in architecture but went to Bolton Street to do Civil Engineering after I left school – made the same technical discovery and left after 6 months. Since then I’ve done Architectural technology and worked as a technician for 4yrs. At present I’m 27 and will be finishing my degree this year in ‘Architectural and Heritage Conservation Studies’ in Wales.

I’ve found studying in the UK a good option. Nearby, I know that the uni’s in Cardiff and Liverpool are good for Architecture..

If you’re interested in innovative and eco friendly designs A good book to start off with is ‘The Whole House Book’ by Pat Borer and Cindy Harris from the National Centre for Alternative Technology. It’ll open your mind to ideas.. 😉
