Bachelor in Architecture

<p>What can you do with a liberal arts undergrad degree in architecture?</p>

<p>go to a masters(M.arch 1) program-</p>

<p>What can you do with a liberal arts undergrad degree in architecture…that doesn’t involve grad school?</p>

<p>wolfman, without meaning to sound facetious, everything and nothing, or, to put it another way, anything that you can do with any other liberal arts BA, whether it’s in architecture studies, art history, English, German, biology or math. </p>

<p>There are zillions of companies and organizations that hire college grads in entry level jobs. They are looking for young people who are articulate in spoken and written English, willing to work hard and interact well with others. The specific skills and educational background are not the most important criteria.</p>

<p>For jobs that are related to architecture but don’t actually require you to be an architect? Most medium to large size firms hire recent grads for entry level non-architect positions, in marketing, in IT, in any of the various “back office” administrative roles that provide support.</p>

<p>Museums, galleries, arts foundations also have non-professional positions for people who can write about or display art, including architecture.</p>

<p>what about landscape architecture? how do you dive into that?</p>

<p>

</p>

<p>Again, without meaning to state the obvious, you get a job that involves landscaping-- plants, gardens, soil etc. This is a field [pun alert] that lends itself well to on the job training.</p>

<p>Eventually you would need to get a masters of architecture, but some work experience is a valuable precursor.</p>

<p>If you mean that you never intend to go to graduate school, I believe you could still function successfully in the landscape arena, but it would take a lot, lot longer and would be a less formal path.</p>

<p>You will be a draftsman or an assistant to someone. You need to go all the way with the education to actually become an architect.</p>
