Why are these studies worth choosing?
Graduate (Master’s) Engineering Studies in Architecture are intended for individuals who have completed undergraduate (engineering) studies in the same field (Architecture, or Architecture and Urban Planning) and who wish to further develop their design skills to become highly qualified professionals – conscious of their individual style, the role and importance of the architect in society, and the opportunities for continued career development. It is precisely the Master’s degree in Architectural Engineering that allows you to work as an independent architect and begin the process of obtaining a Building Licence from the Chamber of Architects of the Republic of Poland. So, if you are confident that this is the right career path for you and you are determined to further grow in the profession – these studies will pave the way to your dream career in Poland or abroad, as well as open opportunities for doctoral studies and an academic path.
The programme covers advanced knowledge in architectural and urban design, as well as spatial planning and heritage protection. Throughout the course of study, you will acquire advanced design skills for buildings that meet the highest standards in aesthetics, technology, culture, and function. You will also learn how to shape urban spaces with an understanding of all aspects of planning – including the preservation of historical monuments, historic urban structures, and regional and cultural landscapes. An integral part of the programme is in-depth knowledge of the investment process and the integration of plans into urban and spatial projects in Poland and other EU countries. So, if you want to realise your potential by designing the spaces of the future – this programme is for you!
What can you do after graduation?
After completing your graduate (Master’s) engineering studies in Architecture, you can pursue a career in architectural studios and design offices, as well as in the construction industry – including engineering and development companies, building surveying, and consulting. You may also work in public administration bodies related to architecture, urban planning, spatial development, or the protection of historical monuments and heritage infrastructure. The Master’s degree in Architectural Engineering also opens the path to running your own design studio under your personal brand.
