I'm interesting in getting a master's or PhD degree in Architecture History, what are my options?
I'm currently an architecture student pursuing a B.Arch but I'm interesting in eventually studying architecture history more specifically, are there any departments/programs that offer a master's of PhD in that specialization or would I have to go through a more general Art History program? What are some universities to consider? #architecture #history #graduate-school

Very few people have doctorates in Architecture. Some in Structural /civil Engineering. Can’t address Masters.
Having work experience first and foremost is a pathway to success. Practical experience on real life projects with real world users and clients will formulate your future philosophies.

Salary as a teacher requires many years of study. For few open positions.
