Architecture is a discipline that spans engineering technology and humanities. The architectural art and technology involved in architecture, as well as the aesthetic side and practical side contained in architectural art as a practical art, are obviously different, but they are closely related, and their weights vary greatly due to specific situations and buildings.
Many people classify people who work in design institutes as a major, which is actually different. Civil engineering, built environment and architecture belong to different categories. Architecture students engage in an "architect" industry after graduation; Civil engineering students are engaged as "structural engineers" after graduation; Building environment, HVAC and equipment engineer. They belong to architectural design, structural design and water heating and electric design.
Undergraduate courses in architecture: preliminary architectural design, architectural design, public building design principles, residential design principles, interior design and principles, engineering drawings, building materials, building equipment, building structure, architectural history of China (divided into ancient and modern parts), foreign architectural history, sketch, sketch, photography, surveying, theoretical mechanics, material mechanics and structure.
1) Employment prospect of architecture:
There are four main directions for architectural graduates to find jobs: architectural design institutes, architectural design firms and other design units in the construction industry, mainly engaged in architectural design and related architectural research; Of course, some students (mostly master students and doctoral students) stay in colleges and universities to study and teach; Some students take an examination of civil servants, and it is good to engage in management planning in urban construction departments; A considerable number of them have entered the real estate industry and engaged in real estate development.
l？ Employment orientation: Graduates can engage in architectural design, architectural planning, interior decoration design or participate in various construction-related jobs through self-study or training.
l？ Salary: after graduation, the salary is 3,000-5,000 yuan/month for 1-3 years, 4,000-110,000 yuan/month for 4-8 years, and 8,000-20,000 yuan/month for 8 years after graduation.

APS audit:
APS audit is the only way to study in Germany. Its purpose is to prove that the application materials submitted by the applicants for studying abroad are true, and they have achieved enough academic achievements in China University to apply for German universities. When the applicant has passed the material audit and participated in the audit interview or TestAS test, he can get the audit certificate, which is one of the prerequisites for German universities to admit China students. At present, the academic qualifications of Chinese mainland, Hongkong, Macau and Taiwan Province provinces do not need to be audited.
The classification of review procedures for studying abroad in Germany is mainly divided into: general domestic applicant procedures, short-term exchange review procedures, exchange and cooperation group review procedures, material review procedures and pure art review procedures. As the name implies, the examination procedure for pure art majors (such as piano, dance, painting, etc.). ) is suitable for students who are studying or about to graduate, while students majoring in art design and art-related education can only follow the "general domestic applicant procedure", which is also the most common type of examination procedure. There are two main ways: TestAS exam and APS audit interview.
l？ The exam is the Deshi exam.
It is used to examine whether students have the necessary cognitive ability to study in Germany. The examination is a written test, which consists of three parts: language test, core test and professional thinking ability test. The exam can be conducted in German or English. Held twice a year in the world, China has three test sites: Beijing, Shanghai and Qingdao.
Test AS is only applicable to domestic undergraduate students who are not six semesters (four-year system) or eight semesters (five-year system).
Testeas can be applied to people:
a.？ Domestic 2 1 1 universities: students who have finished 1 semester and have not finished the sixth semester;
b.？ Domestic non-2 1 1 universities: students who have completed three semesters and have not finished the sixth semester.
l？ APS audit interview:
Those who are not qualified to take the exam will usually be interviewed by APS audit department. It should be noted that applicants who are unable to take the German practical test can transfer to the general domestic applicant interview process, but applicants who are in the general domestic interview process are not allowed to transfer to the German practical test.
Mainly check whether the applicant really has professional knowledge and has really studied the courses indicated on the report card. From this perspective, the audit interview is neither a professional assessment nor a language test. The interview involves the applicant's major and specific courses. Applicants don't have to recall all the knowledge they have learned, but they still need to prove that they have studied the courses on the report card, can describe the contents of the professional courses they have studied in detail, and can use or display the contents they have learned.
Who can apply for APS audit interview:
a.？ Undergraduate students who have completed the sixth semester in Chinese mainland universities;
b.？ Undergraduates who have graduated from mainland universities in China;
c.？ Three-year college graduates from Chinese mainland University;
d.？ Graduates who have obtained adult education, self-study exams and bachelor's degrees in military academies.
Tips from Fan Ko: Applicants should select the corresponding audit department to submit materials and collect fingerprints according to their jurisdiction. Applicants in the jurisdictions of Shenyang, Guangzhou and Chengdu must go to the consulates in their jurisdictions to collect fingerprints, and the specific time for taking fingerprints will be notified to the applicants on the day of delivery. Applicants within the jurisdiction of Shenyang, Guangzhou and Chengdu can also make an appointment for the delivery date directly at their respective consulates and collect fingerprints on the spot.
In addition to the domestic APS audit, German universities attach great importance to students' design ideas and design ability, so the admission requirements are very high and the application is very difficult. Many people will be brushed in the portfolio stage, not only through the materials and portfolio review, but also through the subsequent ability test or interview.
