Description

The Architectural Technology and Construction Management programme represents the nexus of architectural technology, engineering technology and project management. Architecture serves as the basis for this programme, while design, construction details, building materials, management and problem solving are core competencies.

At VIA, we prepare our students to independently plan, manage, and perform technical and administrative work in the design and execution phases of construction and civil engineering projects. Our graduates will be prepared to work in an international setting as they through their studies will become familiar with problem-solving and project work in intercultural groups.

The programme is taught entirely in English and focuses on problem-based learning planned around a semester project situated in different countries and current strategic markets. The difficulty level increases throughout the education.

You can choose to study this programme at our campus in Horsens or in Aarhus C. The programme is also offered as an exchange programme.  

Career Opportunities
