I am an overseas registered architect (architectural designer in the UK), looking into getting registered in the UK by completing Part 1 and 2 prescribed exams and applying for Part 3 courses. I am holding B.Arch and Ms.Arch degrees, 4 + 1.5 years.
When I email ARB to get information, they say I have to study Part 2 masters to be eligible to sit on the prescribed examination. Anyone having this kind of an issue their past education?
I have more than 10 years of experience, including teaching in undergrad and grad schools, and don't want to start studying in the university again.
Are you sure your bachelor is only 4 years?or you excluded the foundation year from your count ?because if you have studied 5 years before having any qualifications earned(which is the bachelor)you are eligible to sit for part 2 as is is written in the arb hand book
yes it is 4 years, which is the standard in Turkey. Than I have a 3 semester masters in USA. The content of my undergrad I believe is already eligible, since it gives skills to become architect in Turkey, with a lot more workload than a 3 year part 1 education.
They have to count total years of study for Part 2 and check the content like other countries.
I have taken the prescribed examination Part II and unfortunately I haven't past all the criteria. However, I am are eligible for ‘Referral to Lead Examiner’. I need to write three essays about different subjects.
