What the register says
Das Bachelor-Studium vermittelt, ausgehend von einem Einführungssemester in allen Plattformen sukzessive aufeinander aufbauende Schwerpunkte. Diese liefern zusammen die hochkomplexen Grundlagen für die weitere Ausbildung im Master-Studium zur Architektin bzw zum Architekten. Während das Bachelor-Studium sehr klar definierte Lehr- und Lernziele vorgibt, wendet sich das Master-Studium an die individuellen Schwerpunktsetzungen der Studierenden, die ihre Interessen im Kontext der fünf Plattformen entwickeln können. Da sich jede Plattform im Kern als Forschungsebene im jeweiligen Bereich definiert, fließen hier die neuesten Erfahrungen und Kenntnisse unmittelbar in die Lehre ein.
