The Architecture program focuses on innovative building designs and environmental sustainability. Students will engage in practical projects and gain essential skills in architectural theory and design. Graduates are prepared for various roles in architecture and urban planning.
The curriculum includes architecture design principles, urban planning strategies, and sustainable construction techniques. Students will explore the impact of architecture on society and the environment.
The program is structured over six semesters, combining theoretical courses with practical projects and internships. A final thesis project is required for graduation.
Graduates will acquire skills in architectural design, project management, and environmental sustainability, making them competitive in the job market.

Third-country (non-EU/EEA) applicants generally need to have their prior qualifications legalised and translated for the admission application. Exact rules depend on the country that issued each document — always confirm with the university's admissions office.
Program-specific items — a CV, letter of motivation, an entrance exam (e.g. GMAT, GRE, SAT) or a portfolio — vary by degree. Check this program's requirements above and its official page.
The level of legalisation your certificates need depends on your country of origin:
Apostille
If your country is part of the Hague Apostille Convention, an Apostille from the competent authority of the issuing country is sufficient.
No legalisation
A small number of countries have a bilateral agreement with Austria and need no further legalisation.
Full diplomatic legalisation
For all other countries: the full chain — pre-certification by the issuing country's authorities (e.g. Ministry of Education and Ministry of Foreign Affairs), then legalisation by the competent Austrian representation (embassy/consulate).
Translations are usually done after legalisation. Check the required order with the issuing authorities and the Austrian representation.
After admission: proof of sufficient funds, health insurance and the student residence permit are part of the visa process — not university admission. We cover those in the guides.
