Description
The Architecture & Design program is designed for students majoring in architecture, interior design, interior architecture, and, for pre-architecture, in fine arts or studio art.

If you choose to enroll in the Architecture & Design program, you take a program core course (studio) of your choice, and participate in the two course-integrated study tours.

Core courses include Architecture Design Studio, Interior Architecture Studio, Urban Design Studio, and Architecture Foundations Studio (for pre-architecture students). Beyond the core course and study tours, participants also enroll in DIS elective courses.

Through the core course, electives and study tours, you will:

* Expand your professional skills and knowledge through interaction with Danish architects and designers in studio, classes, and on field studies and study tours

* Familiarization with contemporary Danish, Scandinavian, and European architecture, design, and theory

* The ability to recognize and analyze the effects of cultural, economic, and political life on architecture and design, and vice versa

Study tours include a short regional study tour early in the semester and a longer European study tour during midterm study tour week. Destinations include Germany-Netherlands, or Sweden-Finland (your choice).
