Freestanding courses

The subject of architecture is interdisciplinary. To explore these connections, UMA offers short, freestanding courses of 7.5 credits spanning the many specialisms of the discipline. Our freestanding courses are open to students not on our professional programme. Some courses require you to have completed previous studies at university level to be admitted while others are open to anyone with an upper secondary school or high school education.

In the summer, the courses Rural Futures: Design-Build in Northern Sweden and DesignBuild: Architecture for Resilience in Northern Climate Zones takes place between June and August and offers students an opportunity to engage in the hands-on experience of design-build projects, community-driven mapping, individual project work, or architectural field studies. 

Currently, no free-standing courses are offered during the autumn and spring semesters.
