architecture architect experience
Thank you comment icon Hi my recommendation is to go to architects offices let them know your interest, ask to talk with someone,ask for an office tour, ask if you could do soy for them on a part time basis. Also check local colleges ,technical schools, find out when an architectural college has an open house, or go to admissions ask for a tour of the program to learn what it is they do. Go online and learn something about the Architecture company,& college first so to see what they do or specialize in. Residential, Commercial,schools,hospitals, restaurants,solar,energy efficient designs. If you show a strong interest and ask how you can get involved someone will help you. And persevere, keep asking and that door will open for you! Good luck 👍 Mark Scarbeau

Elishah’s Answer

The University of Toronto is the only acredited architecture school in your area. I've linked information on the school's Architecture Studies program below.

Kate’s Answer

Hi Deleted D.
Taking any visual art, digital design/creativity class is helpful if you are in high school or lower grades. If you're out of high school focus on camps specific to architecture.
Check out Ryerson University for its summer camp schedule. https://www.ryerson.ca/camps/our-camps/camps-catalogue/
Ryerson is fully accredited for a six-year term, by the Canadian Architectural Certification Board (CACB).

Best of luck.

Kate recommends the following next steps:

I always advise people interested in architecture to develop a portfolio. Look at the built environment and the natural environment. Record what you see with hand-drawn sketches, computer graphic work, paintings, photographs, collages, anything that shows your creativity. Your portfolio should have a range of visual arts shown.
