Additionally, SLIIT is delighted to note that the entire first batch of architecture students who graduated from Liverpool John Moores University, UK recently received honours passes ensuring they have reached international standards with recognition and exposure on a global scale.
SLIIT’s School of Architecture and its programs were established under the guidance of and continues to be guided by Vidyajyothi Prof. Nimal De Silva, Emeritus Professor of Architecture, University of Moratuwa, who was also the Former Dean of the Faculty of Architecture, University of Moratuwa.
Furthermore, the Architecture program is taught by highly experienced and eminent Chartered Architects, academics and subject specialists armed with a wealth of local and international experience in practice and teaching.
With the high demand and enthusiasm from students towards studying architecture at SLIIT, the school has increased its capacity in terms of facilities and staff.
Accommodating this expansion, in September 2018, the SLIIT School of Architecture moved to its brand new state-of-the-art facility with in-house studios, labs and working areas which are of international standard.
These facilities will undoubtedly provide Sri Lankan students with an experience of studying at a truly international university without leaving local shores.
The study in Architecture consists of five years of formal Architectural education. The SLIIT School of Architecture offers the complete path in two stages - as a three-year Bachelor Degree in Architecture and a two-year Master Degree in Architecture.
