Is Architecture A Good Career?

Want to learn Revit the quick and easy way? Sign up for my course!:

Are you thinking of studying architecture when you graduate highschool? Perhaps you wan't to be an architect when you are older. Maybe you are working in another field and are thinking about switching to architecture. Is it a good career? Is it worth the change? What is architecture like?

Just like what my college instructor once said, "An engineer knows everything about one thing. An architect knows something about everything."

Bruh my username is in a video idk how to handle fame like this

[saraa]

Short answer: No, but if you really like Architecture the answer is Yes

I was an licensed architect in UK and now I am a freelance web developer, test prep tutor and portrait painter. To be honest, if you like to stay in the office 10-12 hours a day and running project, architect is for you. I am a free spirit and I cannot stay in the meetings for too long. Studying in school is fun, but working in an office as an employed architect is a different story.

As a retired architect, I can say that, if you are not able to live without architecture, then go on. If your personal life, is important to you, forget architecture.

In my second semester of community college for architecture and watching videos like this and seeing some professional work done by my professors makes me super excited about everything I’m going to learn and be able to do. I love how there’s so many different facets of architecture to be explored in terms of career. Also, your renaissance man analogy is spot on.

Hey guys! It's been WAYYYY too long ... Glad to be back and excited to see what comments and questions you guys have!

Graduated from architecture for two years now, currently reviewing for my licensure exam. If you’re looking for a high paying job, architecture is not for you. But on the bright side, architects creates environments. You can help people’s life passively. A classy career. Its as the video says “architecture will help you grow”

Can you do a video on sustainability in Architecture. I am passionate about the environment and this is a dealbreaker for me to go into the field. Btw you have the best content for architecture on Youtube !!

I honestly don’t think you understand how much your helping me with all your videos. Thank you so much. Can’t wait for the college video.

I’m literally scared of becoming an architect

[justnwin]

This may sound weird but I'd rather work for someone than to be a freelance architect. I hope to be at 60-80k a year.

I'm currently taking up Architecture in college and oh boy am I in a point where my professors are crushing my dreams lol. I am watching these kinds of videos to motivate myself. This video tells me that it's gonna be worth it. Here's the real deal, you gotta have thick skin. You will eat criticism for breakfast and disappointing grades for snack XD, sometimes even at projects you think you did well enough:((. Nonetheless, don't lose hope, it's all part of the learning process!

I think choosing a career based on how nice it is or how well it pays is not really the way. Architecture is a beautiful, beautiful career! And yes ofcourse sometimes it sucks, but becoming an architect means you can design the world around you, which in my ears sound amazing! You just need some intrinsic motivation to become a good architect! so.. just wanted to say that :)

Man Im going to start architecture school this week and this video made me even more excited about what i have ahead. Great video. Keep the good work👏

If you are businessman you can see an opertunity as an architect, you can compensate flats in big building instead of getting paid for smaller price and than build welth by passive income from them :)

[maryamalmarzooqi]

Thank you for making this, searching up architects I get mostly negative aspects, it's nice seeing something inspiring.

[alexcope]

So glad I found your channel. I did my undergrad in marketing and law and two years into a career now working as a marketing manager I've realised I don't enjoy it and design and architecture was what I was enrolled in when I first started but went the 'safe' route and followed a commerce career. Looking at finishing out this year and then going part-time initially and completing my studies :) It's never to late to start ❤️

[logofwood]

As an architect myself, I agreed with most of the stuff you are saying, will add one more to the cons: low pay and economically dependent.
