FAQ
Graduates of the bachelor’s programme are familiar with the subject-specific and societal characteristics of the profession of architects. They are capable of interdisciplinary thinking and to understand the artistic-scientific character of architecture.
They have the ability to translate their creative thoughts into architectural designs and master the artistic and technical means to depict them.
In the Bachelor’s Programme Architecture, fundamental knowledge of architecture in practice and theory is imparted on a broad basis. Therefore, artistic, theoretical, structural-historical, constructive, technical, ecological and economic aspects of architecture are important requirements, as well as the acquisition of knowledge about sociocultural factors, interdisciplinary contexts and the role of architects in society.
The programme imparts an understanding of the interaction between different disciplines in planning and construction processes as well as the interrelations with other artistic and technical disciplines. Interdisciplinary and team-oriented thinking and working are therefore just as much a part of the qualification profile as communication and presentation skills involving new media. In addition to lectures, seminars and exercises for imparting knowledge, one focus of the course is on the basics of design, which are developed in practical design studios.
The completion of a Bachelor’s Programme Architecture qualifies for work in architecture and planning offices and related activities in public administration, such as in building authorities, offices for project development and control, or in consulting, construction and planning departments of companies, architectural communication and journalism, exhibition design or in the creative industries.
The completion of the Bachelor’s degree qualifies for starting the Mater’s Programme Architecture.
