A.D. in Architecture

This program explores architecture through cultural, environmental, and social relevance while understanding and addressing critical issues facing the built environment. Innovative design, critical analysis, and communication skills are developed in drawing, writing, modeling, and collaboration. Students completing the AS degree may apply for transfer to a university program in architecture, interior architecture, or environmental design, or obtain an entry-level position in the same fields.

Note: In addition to meeting academic requirements for admittance into a university, architecture programs also require prospective students to submit a portfolio to review for admittance into the program. It is recommended that students make an appointment with counselors at the institution of their choice to inquire about requirements.

After completion of this architecture program, California students have the option to pursue a license in architecture through the NCARB internship process.
