The Programme

You can complete all seven semesters and graduate as a Construction Architect – a 3½-year BA degree. Or you can choose to follow a separate 4th semester and thereby specialise as a Building Technician – a 2-year AP degree.

 

Architectural Technology and Construction Management

The programme is a 3½-year full-time semester-based education with focus on project-oriented and multi-disciplinary studies. The duration of each semester is 20 weeks. The programme corresponds to 210 ECTS points.

Architectural Technology and Construction Management graduates are qualified for designing, planning, managing and implementing processes and tasks in the building and construction sector. You will be one of the main actors when the enterprise carries out a building or construction project, and you will be familiar with the whole process from idea to the final stage of the project. Each semester has a main theme corresponding to the study level.

 

Study environment

We have set up a drawing office environment in all classrooms along with a wireless network and lecture facilities. The academy is open for access 24 hours a day.

Despite its theoretical aspects, the programme is primarily based on understanding practice. Consequently, teaching involves building site visits, visits to various companies as well as lectures by external consultants, all of which will give you insight into the reality for which you are training.

We are working project and group oriented along with individual projects and optional subjects.   Business Academy Aarhus benefits from a large network of building and construction companies, architectural drawing offices, consulting engineers and public authorities, with whom we collaborate on projects that form part of your education.

Building Technician

The programme is a two-year full-time semester-based education with focus on project-oriented and multi-disciplinary studies. The first three semesters are the same as “Architectural Technology and Construction Management”. You will follow a separate 4th semester where you spend half the time working on your final project and half the time in an internship.

As a Building Technician you will be specialized in production and execution.
