Architecture
What is it?
The objective of the architecture degree program is to offer you a fundamental and application-oriented education that provides you with wide-ranging knowledge of traditional and new professional fields in architecture. Basic artistic training, combining practical implementation and theory, is followed by the specialization phase.
Our aim is to enable you to think and act independently in professional practice. In addition, you will acquire artistic and creative skills and the historical references will enable you to develop an understanding of social contexts as well as communicative skills.
What can I do with it?
Graduates of the bachelor's degree program will find career opportunities in architecture and planning offices as well as in the construction industry. The professional tasks involved range from project and cost planning through collaboration on design and construction together with architects to construction and facility management and real estate management.
For degree-seeking students: detailed information on admission requirements, application deadlines, etc. can be found on the German page.
What are the topics?
The architecture degree program is made up of topics and subjects from various areas. Design and general science courses as well as a variety of constructive subjects complement the architectural design. The design project is at the center of our curriculum and is taught in direct contact with the professors in the so-called studio teaching.
