Is the architectural profession under siege?

BluecornGroup

Greetings - Was it a mistake to require a masters degree from an NCARB-blessed university (licensed engineers shot this down many years ago)? - Is NCARB controlled or unduly influenced by the AIA? - If you pass the ARE should architects be allowed to ply their trade just like lawyers (after the bar exam) without required hours under a licensed architect? - why is there so much structural racism still within the current system (about 2% of architects are Black)? - Is there any taste for advocacy or major reform from any quarter? - why don't architects stand up for the profession? - respectfully ...

What the hell are you talking about? What's this requiring a master's degree from an NCARB blessed university? NAAB accredits the architecture degrees. The individual state licensing boards determines licensure in the their respective states. Generally, you need a B.Arch degree. In some cases, a BA/BS in architecture or in some other cases a lower degree or no degree. M.Arch is generally required only if you have a pre-professional architecture degree at the bachelors level or a bachelors-level degree in other subject area.

In New Mexico you must have a Masters in Architecture from a NCARB accredited school - I think this is true in most states.
