ORIGIN AND DEVELOPMENT

The year of 1897 may be considered the beginning of higher education in the sphere of architecture in our country, although instruction had already been conducted at the School of Engineering since 1846, when the Department of Architecture was founded as one of the three departments of the School of Engineering of the Superior School (Velika [kola).

In 1932, the Faculty of Engineering with its departments moved into a new building, located at Bulevar revolucije 73, the seat of the present Faculty of Architecture.

The Faculty of Engineering was detached from the structure of the University in 1948, by means of the Decree of the Government of the Republic of Serbia, and transformed into an independent Higher School of Engineering, while its departments acquired the status of a faculty. That year is the founding date of the Faculty of Architecture in Belgrade, which thus became an independent University institution.

In 1954, the Superior School of Engineering was discontinued, and the faculties within its framework entered the structure of the University of Belgrade.

Since its formation the Faculty of Architecture has produced more than 6,700 engineers of architecture, 260 holders of master's degrees, and 110 doctors of architecture. Seven members of the Serbian Academy of Sciences and Arts were elected from among the ranks of its TEACHING STAFF in the post-war period.

Today the Faculty of Architecture in Belgrade is an educational and research institution which, in addition to the organizing of undergraduate level studies and those leading to academic and scholarly degrees, deals with the practical problems of designing architectural structures and rural planning, as well as providing expert opinions and studies, including those concerning the protection of structures having cultural value, and the like.



INTERNAL ORGANIZATION

Educational, research and expert activities of the Faculty are carried out within the scope of six chairs: the Chair of Urban and Rural Planning; the Chair of Materialisation of Architectural Space; the Chair of Structural Analysis; the Chair of History and the Development of Architecture and the Arts; and the Chair of Visual Communication.



TEACHING STAFF

Teaching and research activities at the Faculty are carried out by 16 full professors, 16 associate professors, 24 assistant professors, 11 assistants, 35 junior assistants, and 2 expert associates.



UNDERGRADUATE STUDIES

The enrolment capacity of the Faculty is about 200 first-year students.

Studies last five academic years, i.e. ten semesters, and are carried out according to a uniform curriculum, without sections or majors. Specialisation is effected after deciding to study one of the offered groups of elective subjects during the fourth and fifth years of study. After completing the studies, one acquires the professional title of architectural engineer.



POSTGRADUATE STUDIES

The Faculty of Architecture organizes master's studies in the following areas: history and theory of architecture and town planning; protection and revitalization of the architectural heritage; town and rural planning; architectural materialisation of space; architectural engineering and graphic presentation, construction, and shaping of space in architecture and engineering.

A doctoral degree may be acquired at the Faculty in the areas of architecture and town and rural planning.
