<p>part of being in arch school is learning new ways of thinking and breaking your preconceptions of what architecture is. you might not always like what you’re learning but at least you’re expanding your horizons…which is really important for an architect</p>
<p>part of being in arch school is also discovering what it takes to think like an architect and i’d say most people entering into architecture school have no idea what it really is like (including myself) until they’ve been exposed to the studio structure and how architecture is taught. </p>
<p>architecture can be such a broad field and is related to so many majors that you can always form some sort of relationship with architecture and some other field. some possible related majors-</p>
<p>computer science (if you’re into thinking about systems, programming, which has quite some relation to architecture)
history (analysis, theory, etc)
real estate development (if you’re more into the economics and how people behave etc)
business (creative ideas, solutions)
engineering (problem solving)
urban planning (large scale, infrastructure, culture, theory, history)
historic preservation (preserving old houses for analysis, culture, etc)</p>
