Bergen School of Architecture

In the Norwegian context, these two programs stand as alternatives to those offered by the two public architecture schools in Norway (AHO in Oslo and NTNU in Trondheim).

Architect and city planner Marianne Skjulhaug took over S. Hatløy as the school's academic and administrative principal on 1 September 2007.

The second cycle at BAS consists of three full-time thematic semester courses and a final 7-months-long diploma project.

These courses take the students to observe as architects in a culture very different from their own and the question is raised how an architect can meet the challenges of understanding foreign cultures and what sort of architectural response it will require.

Previously BAS has been to China, India, Brazil and Chimundo in Mozambique.
