In 2024 we celebrated the centenary of our RIBA validation with special alumni events and lectures from RIBA Gold Medallist Professor Lesley Lokko OBE and alumnus Professor Robert Nicholls. Emma Curtin looks back to the school in 1924, and two young women architecture students who were approaching the end of their training.
Established in 1894 we were the first University in the UK to award a RIBA accredited degree in Architecture. Ranked third in the 2024/25 Guardian league tables for Architecture and 7th by Times Higher Education, we are one of the UK's premier centres for architectural research and education, and are proud of our long tradition and position in the world of Architecture, both nationally and internationally.
