Overview and admission

Study Type

graduate

Admission semester

Winter Semester only

Area of study

Architecture

Focus

Design and Construction Strategies, Corporate Architecture, Monument Conservation, Planning of Existing Properties, Energy Optimised Building, Project Management and Property Economics

Target group

Architecture in the broader sense is a product of human culture that nourishes humans and helps them to survive. The Master’s degree course continues the focus after the Bachelor’s on this responsible role. The Faculty of Architecture therefore offers five specialisations covering all current trends in architecture and urban planning.

Annotation

Admission modus

Without admission restriction

Admission requirements

Evidence of a Bachelor's or Diplom degree, or a certificate of academic degree recognised as equivalent in the subject of Architecture worth 180 ECTS credit points with an ECTS grade C or, if this is not shown, an overall grade of “good” (2.5) or better. The inclusion of a relevant practical phase between the Bachelor's and Master's degree is recommended. Provided that the applicant provides evidence of practical experience of at least one year (after completion of the Bachelor's degree) at a planning office, the requirement for evidence of the successful completion of a degree in the form of the final grade does not apply. Evidence of practical experience must be provided at the time of application. The degree course requires a special selection procedure.
