The BA – Architecture Program is aims to stimulate the creative and artistic side of Architecture itself with its students, at the same time generating required and valuable relation with the knowledge of technological side if it and the architectural constructions as closely related elements at all times. This means an Architecture that has a form of artistic declaration as a result, the purpose of creating contemporary ideas, respecting the environment at all times. To be able to practice architecture, it requires the ability to recognize the meaning of the space, form, proportions and completeness. Amongst all the knowledge about the function, construction/ technology side, materials and conditions of the environment are a necessity. Putting all of the above said together, the main goal of the BA in Architecture Program is oriented towards the architectural design, architectural constructions and systems, urban context and history of architecture through ages including the developments nowadays.
– Specialized knowledge of the higher level in the relevant field of studies/research, which serves as the basis for original thinking. – Critical awareness towards issues of one field of study in relation to other disciplines. – Knowledge which covers the majority of closely related disciplines (in the relevant field), their integration, the use of proper terminology and characteristics. – The ability to use critical thinking which come out of main theories, concepts and principals. – The use of extensive, detailed and critical knowledge, in one or more close disciplines, which are the most advanced part of their field. – Will gain qualification to continue their studies on the Master level. – Design skills in close relation to urban context, which will contribute towards the improvement of already built environment as well as the newly designed one. – Knowledge in the field of the History of architecture and the space where arts and technology find the common language, which will enable students to develop the sence of innovation in Architecture, closely connected to the place and time, people and cultures. – Skills to manage the architectural practice and work in teams. – Possibilities and skills to use resources, materials and production/technology to create environmentally sustainable architecture.

The student owns the drawing technique, understands and presents the phenomenon of depth and three- dimensional expression.
The course wants to offer the necessary knowledge and tools to manage the spoken and written English language also professional topics related to Architecture. It aims to prepare students to use at best the everyday language and to write correctly papers and assignments, to prepare their own portfolios using professional terminology. The main scope is to offer the student the possibility to make a proper self- presentation and what are the aims of studying architecture . In this course they will be ready for job interviews and how to behave in a near work market.
The student manages to draft perspective of architectural objects and their interiors.
.
The course of Architectural composition aims to introduce students to the language of graphic presentation in architectural projects, technical writing, and to create a subtle sensation for composition of different forms, knowledge which has to implement the creativity and skills of critical and creativethinking in the later stages of the design process.
Short Description/Introduction (maxsimum 5 sentences): It is expected that the student will be able to compose, but also disassemble the structure of the project and program office until the completion of the conceptual design of the building for collective housing, and to distinguish one from the other determining factors, but during its formation and discussion with the district, have the opportunity to knowledge and learning in this study to convince others to a hypothesis that protects, and be able to structure, justify and prove what he says.
This course introduces students with the history of architecture form prehistory to the beginning of medievial period, or pre-romanic period in architecture.
Lecture: contents of urban space affected by natural conditions and influences, physical and functional elements of the structure of the city by focusing on urban blocks. Elaboration of regulatory norms and relevant rules and organization of residential buildings (residential low, medium and high) and public ones (kindergarten garden, building supplies for daily business as community centers). Organization of adequate traffic (pedestrians, cyclists and vehicles) and green spaces and recreational urbanstik within the blocks.
