STRUCTURE OF THE PROGRAMMES

The officially stipulated period of study at the Aarhus School of Architecture is five years: a Bachelor programme with a duration of three years and a Master programme with a duration of two years.

Bachelor programme

The Bachelor programme provides you with a thorough introduction to the disciplines of architecture.

The first year is an introduction to the methods, analytical tools and communication of the discipline. During the practice and projectbased part of the three year programme, we focus on themes such as space, form, program, construction and context.

During the second and third year, you will be introduced to long-running projects aimed at the breadth of the study and the discipline. Through courses and workshops you will be introduced to theories and specialized areas of the profession. The third year consists of the development of the Bachelor project in 5th semester and internship or studies abroad in the 6th semester.

Master programme

The Master programme provides students with the opportunity for specialising within a defined area of the architectural profession. Emphasis is placed on projects of a longer duration that are supported by seminars, lectures, workshops and study trips that focus on specific disciplines and areas of specialization that are knowledge based and theory supported. The student concludes his or her study with a final graduation project and examination.
