Curriculum

Year 1

In this Master of Architecture (MSc), we welcome graduated students from different schools, disciplines, and cultural and professional backgrounds. The first year is dedicated to developing a designer attitude towards the world around us. The Core studio program is supported by a range of skill-based training and a theoretical foundation in architecture and urban design, economy, sustainable design, and art history. Your learning outcomes will be assessed based on a portfolio.

Year 2 & 3

During the Master of Architecture (MSc), you’ll follow a total of 8 studio projects, workshops, and a large number of advanced skill-based training. You’ll also engage in research and an in-depth theory program. The studio assessments will confront students with different assignments, methodologies, and levels of complexity.

Five parameters are used to differentiate between the studio projects: Programme, Product, Meaning, Context, and Geometry. Students will work on a range of different scales. Every second semester, the students will organize an international study trip to visit projects abroad.

Year 4

The graduation studio project takes up one full year through two possible formats: individual and team driven. Every student, in architecture or urbanism, will follow the same process-based planning. Research and analysis take three months, during the chosen issues of the self-defined assignment. You will attend several lectures by professionals to find inspiration throughout the process. All research, strategies, experiments, and design work during the year will be interrelated and aimed at tackling urgent societal issues for future generations.
