Since architects\u2019 lead projects using engineers as consultants, they must know technical and engineering concepts and principles, understand structures, building systems (mechanical, electrical, plumbing, daylighting principles and system design) and go beyond the core curriculum to ensure they are well-prepared to lead architectural projects and collaborate effectively.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Our architecture-driven curriculum and studio-based experiences will develop your capacity for design thinking.

Motivated 2nd-year ARCH students who aspire to become licensed professional architects have the option to participate in the Integrated Path to Architecture Licensure (iPAL) program to simultaneously pursue the three essential components for licensure, i.e., Education (Accredited degree), Experience (AXP), and Examination (ARE 5.0), thereby reducing the overall time required to obtain an architectural license. The curriculum requires all 3rd-year undergraduate students to study away from the Texas A&amp;M Main Campus for one semester. Students can elect to participate in an internship or study abroad program to gain global architecture and design perspectives. The Bachelor of Science in Architecture prepares graduates to continue their professional education through a NAAB-accredited Master of Architecture program.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"
