Can you get more than one degree at a time ?
Or better is it possible to go to university for two different degrees but at the same time. Such as, I want to get a degree in Architecture Design which takes 5-6 yrs. as well as a degree in Landscape architecture which takes 4 years. I would finish the Landscape architecture degree then finish the Architecture Design degree. Would i be able to go to school for these two things at the same time or is that not allowed

- It is called double majoring.
- I don't think this would be possible, just for the workload as much as anything. A degree is meant to be equivalent to a full time job, so you wouldn't have time to study for two degrees at the same time. I think the only way you could possibly do it is if you studied them both as part-time courses, which would take twice as long. I think the best option would be to study a Joint Honours course (since you said university rather than college I'm assuming you're from the UK?) so it would be something like "Architecture Design and/with Landscape Architecture". It's one degree, but in two subjects. You can do a search on UCAS to find out which universities offer the course, or something similar. Also, I don't know what your career plans are, but as the subjects are so similar, you'll probably do some of each in both degree courses anyway. I'm pretty sure that for most jobs in architecture, you'd only need one degree.
