The Single-cycle (OTM) MSc Programme is a five-year (10 semester) long training and leads directly to an MSc degree in Architecture and Architectural Engineering (Dipl. Ing. Arch.). Students have to accumulate min 300 credit points. The Programme requires to accomplish obligatory and elective subjects alike. During the programme, students can choose from the following specialisations: Sustainable Architecture, Real Estate Development, Urban Design, Architectural Heritage, Architectural Design, Form and Structure, Innovative Building Construction. Note: The Faculty of Architecture reserves the right of changing the Curricula. Specialisations have a minimum required number of students to start.
For our BSc programmes general minimum requirements are an eligible highschool degree; document of English language proficiency and successful admission tests, while for our MSc programmes an eligible BSc degree is needed. Detailed information on the general admission procedure (deadlines and requirements) can be found on our E-admission page
The Single-cycle (OTM) MSc Programme‘s requirements are the same as the BSc programmes’ requirements.
You can study at BME with a scholarship or as a self-funded student, by paying tuition fees. Various scholarships help you cover tuition fees and your living expenses during your studies. Successful PhD students may receive additional support from research grants.
During the 10 semester long Single-cycle (OTM) MSc Programme, students receive a balanced combination of courses in architecture from design studios to technical skills and they can choose from the specialisations. The program requires to accomplish obligatory and elective subjects alike.

The 10 semester long Single-cycle (OTM) MSc Programme leads directly to an MSc degree in Architecture and Architectural Engineering (Dipl. Ing. Arch.). The Faculty of Architecture focuses on training highly professional experts in architectural engineering who are aware of the social and cultural implications of their profession. Versatility is emphasized so that students will gain fundamental knowledge and skills in every possible field of architecture: design, consulting, construction and management. Employment is directly possible after the Single-cycle (OTM) MSc degree or our most dedicated students can enroll in one of our Doctoral Schools to obtain a PhD or DLA degree to become highly qualified researchers or even pursue an academic career.
