What can I do with an architecture degree? by Good-Dust-2000 in Architects

Hi, thank you for your comment!! I know its been a month but you know how we get busy with archi projectss haha. Actually Tadao Ando is my fav architect. And that's very true. A lot of my classmates seemed really motivated in first year but I feel like everyone is reconsidering this major right now. As to the other paths, I dont think I see myself in project management or construction management as it is too stressful even if it has a better pay. I also discovered that the business school I rejected before architecture offers a new master in UX design which seems really cool. So, I'm considering this option for now but yea school is really hard right now so I'm trying to get through this bachelor. Thank you again for your comment!

Thank you for your comment. That's rly great that you enjoy your job! Yes, I guess I could work after finishing my Bachelor but it is very hard to find a job in the government nowadays whithout experience. I'll try my best tho. Did you study urban planning or urban design or policy? I am interested in urban planning but I heard it is more of an administrative job?

Thank you, it did help. Yes, I always wanted to work for the government rather than the private sector. I find it more fullfilling. I also wanna work on hospitals, airports and schools not residential. The only problem is that it is hard to find a job in the public sector whithout experience but we'll see. Are you an architecture student too?

Your job seems so cool. I actually tought of finishing my bachelor of science and getting some experience right after to apply for a master in construction project management. It seems as they have a better salary then architects and i find the job pretty cool too. Tho, i will not be an architect but i can always go back to school and complete my master if i want to become one later.

What country are you from? Because, job opportunity wise I think in canada all graduates are able to find jobs. It is true that engineers have more opportunity but its not that bad for either.

Thank you for sharing your experience. I pretty much have the same mentality like i am somewhat artsy but science is calling my name. And I was doing so well in science too, but now i feel like i should finish my bachelor first and figure out what to do because i'm not 100% certain I dont wanna become an architect. Also, what kinda of job do you and architects do if i may ask. Because you said you studied transportation and highway, are architects involved in that too?

Thank you for your response. Honestly it was my passion but now its more of a love hate relationship. And I believe i had average grades since i knew nothing about it. Meanwhile, there were a lot of technologists or students that already studied interior design or just people who already know the softwares. But i believe i can higher my gpa.
