YOUR ARCHITECTURE* STUDIES: A DEGREE THAT CAN BE BUILT UPON.

This programme is currently not recognised by the German architectural chambers: You acquire professional competencies that enable you to perform most tasks, but are not allowed to wear the protected professional title of “Architekt:in”. In order to receive this title in Germany, you need to be registered with a German architectural chamber. As a rule, you can apply for admission after studying Architecture* for four or five years and gaining at least two years of professional experience. Architectural chambers in certain German federal states require additional qualifications. Each federal state in Germany has its own architectural chamber and this chamber decides whether or not to accept your application. Many German chambers are currently not accepting applicants that have an online bachelor’s degree in architecture. As a rule, classroom training is considered essential. Following up your online bachelor’s degree with a master’s degree recognised by the German chambers currently does not guarantee admission into any German architectural chamber.
