Foundation/PathwayArchitecture
Diploma of Built Environment
Bond University, Gold Coast, QLD, Australia
About this program
A Bond University College pathway diploma, about eight months (two semesters) full-time, covering around eight first-year subjects in architecture, construction and the built environment, with extra academic skills support in small diploma-only classes. On completion, students get guaranteed entry into Bond's built environment bachelors, such as the Bachelor of Design in Architecture or construction degrees, with roughly 80 credit points of advanced standing, joining from third semester. It suits students who do not meet direct entry or who want a supported first year before the main degree. Bond College runs the same model across Arts, Business, Health Sciences and Legal Studies, plus a one-year Creative Design diploma.
