The degrees in Architecture and Administration and Promotion of the Urban Work (APOU) are accredited until 2018. Industrial and Graphic Design degrees have also been given the go ahead until December 2021, guaranteeing academic improvement opportunities for the 1,741 students enrolled in the Architecture and Design Department.
