Education experience of an architect or drafter

drafting, buildings, drawing, design, planning

Prospective architects have three choices of professional degrees:

  1. 5-year bachelor’s degree for students with no architecture experience
  2. 2-year master’s degree for students with an undergraduate degree in architecture
  3. 3 or 4-year master’s degree for students with an undergraduate degree in another concentration

Before new architects can gain their licensure, they must complete a 3-year training period doing architectural work. Any internship experience can be applied toward this 3-year training requirement.
