About the programme
The M.Sc. Architektur at TU Darmstadt runs over 4 semesters and can be studied in German or in English, with courses offered in German, English or both. It deepens and broadens your skills in the planning, design, visualisation and construction of buildings. Following the Darmstadt Model, it integrates two subject areas, structural design and urban planning, and design projects are presented and discussed in a colloquium. An architectural practice internship of at least twelve weeks is part of the programme. You can start in the winter or summer semester. It suits graduates of a Bachelor's in architecture, including from a university of applied sciences, who have a portfolio with their Bachelor's thesis and other work samples.
