Mandatory Excursions in the Master’s Programme “Architektur”*
Your distance learning master's programme in “Architektur”* encompasses the projects „Konzeptionell-experimenteller Entwurf“, „Konstruktiver Entwurf“, „Bauen im Bestand“ and „Öffentliche Bauten“. During four mandatory excursions, you will experience these projects first-hand: Together with fellow students, you will travel to architecturally significant sites in Germany, Austria and Switzerland, learn conceptual design methods, and work with experimental construction techniques. You will explore how to translate designs into constructive implementation and find ways to adapt existing buildings to modern standards. Additionally, you'll analyse the design of public buildings, such as football stadiums or churches. These practical insights prepare you well for your entry into the job market. Moreover, the excursions offer a fantastic opportunity to network with your fellow students.
