Bygningskonstruktør, or plainly konstruktør, is a Bachelor in Architectural Technology and Construction Management. Constructing architect is the agreed upon translation of the title.
The education as a constructing architect is a 3½ years professional bachelor degree (210 ECTS). Six educational institutions are accredited by the Danish Ministry of Education to have a study programme for constructing architect.
Experience shows that the professional level of a constructing architect may be compared with a British honours degree.
Constructing architects are taught architectural technology, construction management, building surveying and facilities management and are therefore specialized to embrace the entire building proces.
You often see constructing architects holding management positions within above fields of work.
Konstruktørforeningen (KF), is the Danish association of constructing architects. KF is a professional organisation as well as a trade union.
Members of KF are entitled to use the title 'bygningskonstruktør m.a.k.".
To become member of KF you must hold a relevant bachelor degree (minimum) within above work areas.
We may ask you to have your qualifications assessed by the Danish Agency for International Education. Or you must prove membership of one of the organisations with which we have entered framework agreements on mutual recognition.
KF is a member of AEEBC, Association of European Building Surveyors and Construction Experts.
