Structure of the programme

We see architecture studies as a learning landscape. You get to choose your own path.

 

The Master’s degree programme in Architecture and Planning shown in the attached table represents a recommendation. Thanks to the modular structure of the programme, the study plan can be assembled individually. This allows a variety of transitions between more or less intensive semesters.

The general study plan of the programme is structured into four semesters. The programme can be commenced both in the winter and the summer semester. In all four semesters, the advanced studios take place. An optional exchange semester is recommended in the third semester. The 4th semester is dedicated to the Master’s thesis, which is integrated in the advanced studio or as a free Master`s Thesis with an individual topic. In this case, the students should dedicate the third semester of their studies to conducting a preliminary study.

API Scholarships

The Liechtenstein School of Architecture is awarding several API scholarships to regular students of the Master’s degree programme in Architecture at the University of Liechtenstein. The API scholarships, awarded per semester to applicants who demonstrate financial need and academic excellence are provided by the Stiftung für Produkteinnovation API (= Foundation for Product Innovation) which supports the research and development of projects addressing sustainable construction and energy efficiency.

There is no guarantee that students who have been awarded a scholarship for one semester will continue to receive one for the entire duration of their studies at the University of Liechtenstein.

Successful applicants will receive CHF 2,000 at the beginning of the semester. This is the equivalent of the tuition fee (CHF 1,250), estimated costs for printing and materials (CHF 250) and the average cost of a design seminar (CHF 500).

To be eligible for re-application, students must have completed a minimum of 20 ECTS in their previous semester at the University of Liechtenstein (including an Advanced Studio) and their overall performance (grade) must be above average. There is no guarantee that even if these criteria are fulfilled, the scholarship will be awarded.
