The Berlage Institute was founded in 1990 and is the internationally renowned postgraduate teaching institute for architects and urban planners.

 

The institute collaborates with leading teaching institutes both home and abroad. It is an experimental laboratory in which students can further increase and deepen their knowledge of architecture. It focuses mainly on social and cultural issues, and it encourages a critical attitude towards current practice. The Institute regularly organises lectures, student presentations and presentations of realized projects.
