Qualification and professional pathway
Pathway is classified only from a statement on an official page. A degree title such as B.Arch, BA, BSc, M.Arch or MSc does not decide it, and no degree by itself grants permission to practise as an architect.
- Degree level
- Bachelor’s degreeA first degree entered after secondary school.
- Pathway
- Pre-professionalA first stage. The source says further study or a further qualification is needed before registration or licensure.
- Why we classify it this way
- The accreditation page lists the BA separately from the NAAB-accredited M.Arch; only the master's is described as leading to licensure.“Bachelor of Arts in Architecture, a four-year undergraduate degree requiring a minimum of 120 credit hours.”Source
- Previous architecture degree required
