How many architecture students are there in the world?

gabrielabruno

Dear friends,

for a research project I'm looking for the ruff number of architecture students in the world right now. I have contacted a few statistic offices etc. but had no luck yet. It would be delightful if somebody could give me some suggestions where I possibly could get an answer.. 

Thank you!

Good question, here is the U.S.:

According to the NAAB (National Architectural Accrediting Board) there were 27,852 students enrolled in a NAAB accredited degree program.  Of this, there were 6,017 accredited degrees awarded in the academic year of 2009 to 2010.

In Italy alone there are over 150k architects! Students? no idea. Just a "few". Evidently we like design-related professions ;)
