Architecture

Architecture is, amongst other things, about making the cities and the houses we live in both beautiful and functional.

On the master programme, you will work with the core disciplines of architecture such as; planning, design, sustainability, urban landscaping and restoration. Thinking about and reflecting on architectural themes together with fieldwork plays an important role on the programme.

You will work with specific architectural issues and learn how to use the artistic and scientific theories and methods of architectural disciplines in an independent manner.

Teaching varies between lectures and classroom instruction. In addition, there is often project work together with other students. Students are encouraged to participate in class discussions.
