Master's degree in architecture
Content
The Master's programme in Architecture comprises four semesters. After passing the final examination, it concludes with the Master of Science (M.Sc.) in Architecture. A total of 120 ECTS credits must be earned for this degree. During the course of study, the scientific qualifications acquired in the Bachelor's programme are to be further deepened.
A wide range of courses for this purpose is provided by four institutes with their respective professorships and teaching areas.
In many respects, the Master's programme corresponds to project studies. Thus, in each semester, a project including a thematic deepening is to be worked on.
Overall, students have a great deal of freedom of choice in selecting the project topics. There is also a wide range of options when it comes to taking courses.
However, it is advisable to seek academic advice before selecting courses, which supports students in drawing up an individual study plan in terms of possible profiling up to the master's thesis.
The examination regulations and the study plan based on them contain all binding specifications for the study programme.
The standard period of study is four semesters. In addition to the courses, it includes participation in compulsory excursions, examinations and the Master's thesis.
In principle, the study programme is divided into modules. Each module can consist of one or more courses, which are concluded by one or more examinations.
The scope of each module is marked by credit points, which are credited after successful completion of the module.

Information
As part of the implementation of the Bologna Process for the establishment of a European Higher Education Area, the Karlsruhe Institute of Technology (KIT) has set itself the goal that, as a rule, the Master's degree will be awarded at the end of the student's education. The Bachelor's and Master's degree course in architecture offered by the KIT Department of Architecture is therefore to be regarded as an overall concept with a consecutive structure.
In any case, the proof of at least four years of study is required for admission to the Chamber of Architects.
Degree and duration of studies
2 years to the degree of Master of Science (M.Sc.); a total of 120 credit points (analogous to the European Credit Transfer and Accumulation System - ECTS) must be acquired, deviations from the standard period of study are possible.
Study structure
The modularised Master's programme corresponds in many cases to a project study. One major project is planned per semester. In addition, elective and optional modules are offered by the four institutes of the KIT department. In addition, seminars on key qualifications have to be attended. The study program ends with the master project. Overall, there is a great deal of freedom in the selection of in-depth projects in the Master's program. The individual modules are defined in the study plan, which is announced before the beginning of the study.

Important info / FAQ
Corona
Information about the measures taken by KIT and the KIT Department of Architecture for Corona precautions and the associated restrictions and changes in study operations can be found on this website: https://www.kit.edu/kit/25911.php.
Technical Information of the SCC
The Steinbuch Centre for Computing (SCC) is responsible for the information technology of KIT. In order to make your start technically successful, the SCC has compiled some relevant information, e.g. on how to activate the KIT user account, how to set up the e-mail box, how to prepare the KIT card, and much more.
http://www.scc.kit.edu/dienste/erstsemester.php
Short overview of important websites and portals
KIT and the Department of Architecture use information and administration systems that directly affect your study organization, be it in teaching, when documents are made available, when dates for the semester are published, or when you have to register for exams. The various portals and websites fulfil different functions. The most important ones for you are briefly presented here.
Überblick über wichtige Websites und Portale
Das KIT und die Fakultät für Architektur verwenden Informations- und Verwaltungssysteme, die Ihre Studienorganisation unmittelbar betreffen, sei es in der Lehre, wenn Dokumente zur Verfügung gestellt werden, wenn Termine zum Semesterablauf veröffentlicht werden oder wenn Sie sich zu Prüfungen anmelden müssen. Dabei erfüllen die verschiedenen Portale und Websites unterschiedliche Funktionen. Die für Sie wichtigsten werden hier kurz vorgestellt.
Website of the KIT Department of Architecture
The website of the KIT Department of Architecture functions as a pure information website. It provides an overview of the various institutions, persons, and committees of the department as well as of the courses offered. It also announces current events, dates, and publications. In the section "Organisation of studies" you can find important dates, timetables, forms etc.. There are also video tutorials on how to register for and deregister from exams to help you with this process.
The various professorships of the department also have websites. The links to these can be found under the menu item "Institutes". The websites are maintained by the professorships themselves and differ in scope and offer.
Campus Management Portal
https://campus.studium.kit.edu
The Campus Management Portal is a central platform of KIT, which manages courses, exam registration and deregistration, re-registration for the next study semester and all possible certificates. Compared to the department website, it is not only about information, but about your personal study organization. If you have difficulties with the Campus Management Portal, the Dean of Studies Office of the Department (Building 20.40, Room 139) can often help.
WiWi Portal
https://portal.wiwi.kit.edu/ys?id=6
The WiWi-Portal is used to allocate places for courses. It is only relevant in the weeks before the lecture period. Registration usually takes place via the KIT account, but if this is not yet available, registration with a private email address is also possible.
ILIAS
KIT uses the learning platform ILIAS. Here, teachers can set up courses for individual learning events and modules and then make learning materials available or set up submissions. ILIAS can also be used to send e-mails or set up calendars for courses. In most cases, the professorships set up a course and then inform the students concerned about the respective joining procedure. This can be done by the professors themselves or with a link and/or password. You should definitely join the corresponding ILIAS courses in order to receive the emails and materials for the courses and to be able to hand in required performances on time!
