Overview

The Architecture program at Fairmont State University is comprised of a 2 year associate degree, a 4 year pre-professional degree (BS Architecture). The focus of these degrees addresses the built environment of the American small city and the regional uniqueness of its surroundings.

Learning outcomes

The two-year degree provides an introduction to the discipline and profession of architecture. The pre-professional degree provides a sound education for the pursuit of general knowledge, and the first phase of a professional education for the general practice of architecture.

The four-year program encompasses a foundation core of design, introductory studies in architectural history and theory and building technology. Advanced design studios address methodology and technological and theoretical synthesis through applied studies of a wide range of design inquiries and projects. Successful completion of the degree will prepare students with the fundamental knowledge and skills necessary to enter the profession, or pursue a graduate degree in architecture at Fairmont State or other institutions.

Career Opportunities

Architecture students who earn a baccalaureate degree are qualified for entry-level positions such as designer or architectural technician. They may be employed in architectural offices, engineering offices, corporations or businesses, which produce their own in house construction documents, and construction-related fields.
