The Bachelor of Architectural Studies (BAS) program at Carleton University is the only program in Canada to offer three distinct and stimulating majors: Conservation & Sustainability, Design, and Urbanism. Students specialize in their major of choice, but experience and learn from all three.
Students at the Azrieli School of Architecture & Urbanism learn to understand architecture not only as making buildings, but also shaping cities, caring for heritage, stewardship of land, and the pursuit of sustainable futures.
With opportunities for international travel, a robust co-op program, and a strong studio culture, Carleton graduates are prepared to design with breadth, responsibility, and vision.
