study architecture, interiors and urban design
Westminster's students are based at our vibrant Marylebone Campus in the heart of London’s dynamic architecture scene. Students benefit from project-based learning, coupled with expert environmental, technical, and cultural studies, allowing them to develop their imaginative designs into reality. Students experience hands-on teaching in small groups by current practitioners and benefit from working in their own dedicated, modern studio space and our cutting-edge fabrication laboratory.

Velina Drakalieva
Architectural Technology BSc - 2023
One of the most remarkable aspects of my experience has been the unwavering support from the tutors. Their commitment to our success has been evident from day one. They have consistently provided guidance and resources necessary for excelling in coursework. Their expertise and dedication created an environment where I could push myself to new limits and achieve my best.
Bodhi Horton

The dedication of the academic staff has been inspiring. With offices next to the design studios, they are quick to respond to any queries and to organise one-to-one meetings when necessary. The significant contact time with tutors has meant that I have always felt supported.
