Qualification and professional pathway
Pathway is classified only from a statement on an official page. A degree title such as B.Arch, BA, BSc, M.Arch or MSc does not decide it, and no degree by itself grants permission to practise as an architect.
- Degree level
- Bachelor’s degreeA first degree entered after secondary school.
- Pathway
- Professional pathwayThe program itself is a professionally accredited or validated degree in the stated jurisdiction, as shown by the source quoted on the page. Further steps are normally still required before registration.
- Why we classify it this way
- The school states its eight-semester program creates the prerequisite for chamber eligibility of future independent architects.“Denn in der Biberach School of Architecture schaffen wir die Voraussetzung zur Kammerfähigkeit zukünftiger, freiberuflich und selbstständig arbeitender Architekt*innen.”Source
