B.Arch vs B.Arch Studies

titi

Hi, I'm new to this forum and I`d like some help.

I want to be a well rounded architect who is at the same time international....I`d like to know the difference between B.Arch and B.Arch Studies

And what are the pros and cons of doing either one of the above... and what are the career prospects???

Also if I do B. Arch Studies then a 2 year program to get B.Arch, am I just wasting time or it will profitable to me later?

First off, the two degrees are either Bachelor of Architecture (B.Arch.) which is a NAAB accredited degree for professional practice OR Bachelor of Arts/Sciences (depending on school) in Architecture which is a liberal arts degree.  If you want to practice as a registered architect in the United States and do not wish to go to graduate school, you want to make sure the university you are looking at offers a B.Arch.  Each school that offers B.Arch. is required to have a statement regarding NAAB accreditation.  This is my alma mater's: http://www.philau.edu/arch/prog_arch_NAAB.html

Feel free to PM me if you have any further questions.
