Handouts and First Aid
For first-semester students in the Architecture Diploma program and the Bachelor’s program in Landscape Architecture, separate registration is neither required nor possible for the Winter Semester 2026/27!
Registration for master’s theses, as well as for independent and department-specific diploma theses, takes place directly with the supervising department. Deadlines are based on their specifications. Registration for the design diploma theses in Building Construction and Urban Planning, as well as the submission of preferred supervisors, must be completed in OPAL by September 10, 2026.
Some topics for the design projects and seminars will be announced in the OPAL course. The presentation of architecture topics took place in person on Friday, August 7, 2026, in ASB/120; see the Winter Semester Design and Topic Presentation.
The landscape architecture projects and topics will be presented on October 12, 2026, starting at 10:00 a.m. in BZW/B301.
