Description/content The ability to develop sustainable environmental solutions is an important aspect of future planning. The aim of the international distance learning programme Master's in Green Architecture is to provide technical knowledge in the field of ecological building design and to teach the implications of building and planning. The main focus is to develop ecological, holistic concepts in relation to architectural design and construction, building physics and engineering services, building materials and the environmental impact of these materials, and water and urban planning concepts. Our students will be taught how to bring these ideas together to achieve the optimum result. The course on offer is integrated into the normal working environment, in which self- directed studying is combined with regular group meetings and consultations. In completing the Master's programme in four semesters, you will earn the degree Master of Science.
