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 program page says the first study stage (240 ECTS) gives the professional qualification of architects established in Germany, leading to registration after two years of professional practice under the architects' laws.“Diese führt gemäß der Architektengesetze in Deutschland nach zweijähriger Berufspraxis zur Registrierung als Architektin oder Architekt und zur Bauvorlageberechtigung.”Source
- Previous architecture degree required
- No
- Applicants without an architecture degree
- Not published
- Further professional requirements
- Two years of professional practice are required after the degree for registration as an architect and the right to submit building applications.Source
