Program details

Overview

The Associate of Science in Architectural and Building Technology, offered through the University of Guyana's Faculty of Technology, admits students with five CSEC or IGCSE/GCE O-level passes covering English Language, Mathematics and a related subject such as Art, Geography or a science, alongside applicants holding technician diplomas or construction-focused GTEE certificates. For those without formal academic qualifications, the university offers a mature-entry route built on prior learning: candidates sit the University of Guyana Entrance Examination, submit a portfolio demonstrating relevant skills and experience, and attend a face-to-face interview, held in person or by Skype, before being admitted. First-year studies combine subjects such as Foundations of Human Geography and Mathematics for Construction, reflecting the programme's blend of design, technical drawing and building-science content.
