While many of those who hold architecture degrees apply their knowledge directly as architects and drafters, others hold jobs in related creative and academic fields. With an architecture and engineering degree, you can find a job in the following fields:

• Graphic designer. Graphic designers use mixed art techniques to create visual designs for use in the publication of magazines, labels, marketing materials, signage, and other media. They may interface with clients to determine their specific needs and manage proposals of typeset, formatting, color, and other details. 
• Interior designer. Interior designers create functional, safe, and visually appealing interior spaces. They may curate specific materials, decor, and lighting to actualize their visions. Interior designers may use drafting and visual design skills to create plans for their projects.
• Computer-aided design (CAD) designer. CAD designers use specific techniques to generate designs and drafts for large-scale projects. They create 2D images (surface models) and 3D images (solid models) to create such graphics. CAD designers are deeply involved in the development processes within fields like architecture, manufacturing, and automotive design. They typically translate complex verbal instructions or conversations into workable models.
• Architectural drafter. Architectural drafters create detailed drawings of plans and designs used by architects to build structures. They must adhere to specific guidelines from architects and utilize software to prepare their drafts. Architectural drafters must often translate complex and abstract ideas into organized technical plans that building teams can work from. They imbed measurements and directions within their drafts.
• Architectural technologist. Architectural technologists work in tandem with architects and engineers to design the construction specifics for building projects. They must possess specific technical skills to understand how to create architectural drafts and building codes. Architectural technologists usually serve as liaisons between creative and technical teams. Architectural technologists often relay measurements, environmental concerns, and any needed specifications to drafters responsible for creating designs.

The Advantages of Courses

Working in architecture gives you the opportunity to shape the world we live in by creating and designing spaces, buildings, and cities – literally. The architecture field plays a vital role in our daily lives, making it a career with impact. Though the industry is competitive and architects require a lot of studies and internships to start working, architecture is a field that pays off in the long term.

The Career in Architecture

Interesting and creative work — Architecture is a creative field that requires a great deal of vision and expression. Seeing this vision and creativity manifest itself in your work can be incredibly rewarding. Putting your creative footprint on a building, town or even city is extremely fulfilling.

It’s a fascinating, fast-paced career — The field of architecture is dynamic as technologies and techniques are always evolving rapidly. Architects have to constantly educate themselves in order to keep up with the field, which makes it both challenging and exciting.

You can make an impact on the city and people around you — The impact of architecture is tangible. You can see the structures and how they serve the city right before your eyes. Not only is this impact very apparent, but it also can last centuries and become part of a city’s historic identity.

Respected career — Becoming an architect is a challenging process, but worth the effort. Architects receive a great deal of respect for their work and serve a fundamental role in modern society.

There’s an emphasis on travel — Architects are big travelers. Understanding vernacular architecture from different countries and cultures is very important for architects. The more you’ve traveled and experienced different architectural styles and influences and seen how they fit into their cities, the better.

Career Perspectives

Humanities graduates understand where we have been, can reflect on the hows and whys of life, and can see how the future could be. Humanities graduates develop many transferable skills making them highly employable. A good humanities degree is a testament to your hard work, creativity, and enthusiasm. We’ll take a look at some paths students can follow at graduation:

• Banking & Finance. To excel in this sector, you’ll need an interest in the financial world — but your humanities degree will not hold you back. If you’re ambitious, analytical, and driven, this could be the sector for you. From client management to investor relations, trading to accounting, the banking and finance sector has a wealth of opportunities and you’ll be sure to find something to suit your strengths.
• Consulting. All graduates enjoy tackling intellectual challenges — and as a consultant, that’s at the heart of your role. The skills you’ve acquired in your degree are sought after by leading consultancy firms. 
• Law. In Law, the ability to read large volumes of research and synthesize the key ideas into one or two succinct messages is a skill humanities students are highly trained in. With a keen eye for detail, you’ll have the chance to put everything you’ve learned at university into practice. Armed with your degree, if you’re dedicated and tenacious a career in Law beckons.
