The Department of Architecture of University of Bengkulu is our pride!

Since its establishment in 2017, the Architecture study program at, the Faculty of Engineering, at the University of Bengkulu has continued to strive to carry out learning activities for prospective architects, research and development related to architecture, planning, and policy development as well as community service. This is an effort to create graduates who are reliable, creative, innovative, and can survive in the era of disruption.

 The Department of Architecture became the pioneer of Bengkulu’s progress

With the establishment of the architecture department, the Faculty of Engineering, Bengkulu University became part of the ideals and spirit of Bengkulu University to preserve and build the civilization of Bengkulu and Indonesian architecture.

The development of architecture in Bengkulu & Indonesia cannot be separated from the participation of alumni, whether as practitioners, academics, or others. The challenge of architecture today is not only to localize architectural cultural styles but also to create buildings that still preserve regional culture and disaster-responsive architecture.

The development of education in the Architecture Study Program at Bengkulu University is directed to not only apply modern and up-to-date knowledge but also be responsive to the values of local wisdom so that it is hoped that its alumni will have awareness and sensitivity to local potential, especially in supporting the value of life, and can connect past, present and for the future. The history of archipelago civilization shows that Indonesia has a strong architectural tradition and the ancestors of the Indonesian nation were not only reliable sailors but also creative ‘architects’.

The architecture will create human value and happiness. Creating an orderly and efficient development for the community and comfortable public space so that interaction between communities can be harmoniously established.
