Welcome Architecture students
Read a welcome message from the Architecture first year coordinator, Robin Skinner
Nau mai, Haere mai. Ngā mihinui ki a koutou katoa.
Welcome to first year in the School of Architecture. We are thrilled that you have chosen to join our school and look forward to guiding you and your journey towards your future.
Built environment disciplines help develop positive visions and creative solutions for the future. They are pathways to great opportunities.
Our first-year curriculum is designed to help you grow and develop your disciplinary interests. All students (irrespective of your preferred disciplines) will share the same courses in the first trimester, and most courses in the second trimester. Part of the teaching will take place at our Te Aro Campus, and part on the larger lecture theatres at Kelburn Campus.
Our first-year course coordinators, tutors and staff are here to help you transition to university studies. If you have any questions simply reach out to any of us, and we will provide the needed guidance. Feel very welcome to email me your questions at robin.skinner@vuw.ac.nz
I look forward to meeting you, talking together, and seeing the great work you’ll produce this year. Hei kōnā.
