Is it worth getting a B.Arch?
Currently enrolled at NYIT finishing my second year, I had originally planned on going into the B.Arch Program graduating, licensed, architect. But is it worth going 4 year construction management, with the option of going to grad school afterwards. everyone I talk to says its way better pay, less liability, and easier to get a job. Opinions?
Go to construction management. Forget being an architect. It isn't a real profession anymore. Just look at the thread topic on drawing penis around potholes to get the city to fix potholes.
UNLESS you have a fascination for penises.
If you want to be an architect, get your BArch or MArch and become one - if you are interested in construction management, go get that degree or work for a contractor and work your way up the ranks - asking this forum full of cynical people for career advice is mostly a waste of time - do what YOU want to do, for the reasons YOU value. And if getting a CM degree and then grad school makes the most sense to you for flexibility, then why not? To me, it sounds like the long way to become an architect, but I wasn't interested in CM.
