Are you interested in getting a glimpse into a career where creativity, technical and sociological knowledge, critical thinking and design skills converge? The minor Architectural Design is an attractive and challenging programme for students with research and design skills and an interest in the built environment around us.

The minor will give you an insight into solving problems within the various domains of the built environment in a creative manner. You will train research skills and critical thinking to approach complex societal questions and you will develop a design mind-set, which is characterized by simultaneously analysing situations and creating solutions. The minor AD is solution focused and action orientated towards creating a preferred and better future. The diverse program draws upon logic, imagination, intuition, technical possibilities and systemic reasoning, to explore possibilities of what could be. You will also develop the ability to visualize concepts as well as give advice on the various parties involved in a building process.

The minor AD has a flexible structure where you can develop according to your own interests, fascinations and previous knowledge and take the first steps into the role of an architectural designer.

Looking for a minor that is still available during the academic year? Look in Osiris where there is still room because full = full.
Your registration must always be checked by your academic counsellor (SLB-er) and can be approved or rejected. Only after approval are you definitively registered.
Make sure you deregister from a rejected minor.
After approval, enrol in the courses of the minor.
Please note: some programmes register their students for courses of a minor themselves. Check whether this is the case with your programme.

Some minors have an entry with a draw. There is a pre-registration for these minors.

You can specify up to three preferences when pre-registering. There will be a draw in one round. First, the 1st choice of the students will be drawn. After that, the 2nd choice is drawn, etc. In the draw you will compete for just one spot. After the draw, you can only register for a minor if there is a place (full = full).
