Program Overview

The architecture training program at Mohamed Khider University of Biskra stands out for its balanced approach, combining strong architectural culture, advanced technical skills, and a contemporary vision. It is divided into five years and structured around three main phases:

  1. Discovery and Initiation (1st and 2nd year): Students acquire essential theoretical and technical foundations, such as architectural fundamentals, construction sciences, and principles of graphic representation.
  2. Design and Specialization (3rd and 4th year): Students deepen their knowledge in architectural design, urban planning, urban ecology, and innovative digital tools.
  3. Mastery and Professionalization (5th year): Intensive preparation through real-world projects, mandatory internships, and modules focused on architectural project management and execution.

The program also emphasizes the integration of applied sciences, heritage preservation, sustainable development, and optimization of construction processes. This curriculum offers diverse career opportunities, including in architectural firms, construction companies, local authorities, and research institutions.
