What is MiAK?
MiAK was established to evaluate architectural education and improve it through competency work. In this way, it aims to advance social welfare by educating better-trained, higher-quality architects. In this context, it evaluates the competencies required for architectural education through a wide range of reviews, from course content and the assessments used in courses to the physical adequacy of the spaces where education is delivered.
