Darmstadt University of Applied Sciences (HS Darmstadt) Darmstadt
Architecture is a German-taught, four-semester Master of Engineering at Hochschule Darmstadt (h_da) that deepens the knowledge and practical skills you gained in your bachelor's. The focus stays on core architecture themes, extended by your own specialisation, partly at the interface with interior design, so you gain interdisciplinary skills. After a subject-specific onboarding semester, the second and third semesters combine subject-specific and shared interdisciplinary content linking architecture and interior design. The programme starts in the winter semester. It suits graduates in architecture. Graduates can work as architects, in planning offices, construction companies or the senior civil service.
