Students pursuing the Bachelor of Science [B.S.] in Architecture must complete an internship as part of their degree requirements. Students pursuing the Bachelor of Arts in Architectural Studies [B.A.] are not required to complete an internship but are encouraged to do so, especially if they plan on applying to graduate M.Arch. programs. Students should consider searching for internships after they have completed the two Architecture + Digital Media courses, Foundation Studio and Design Studio 1. More advanced students are better positioned to capitalize on their internship experience and will have gained skills and knowledge that make them more attractive candidates to potential employers.
Prior to beginning their search for internship positions, students should contact the program director, Professor Drew Armstrong, who oversees the internship program for Architectural Studies. Prior to beginning their internship, students must complete an Internship Agreement form with their future employer/mentor and return the form to the program director for approval. The Internship Agreement form is an essential element in the dossier of materials students must submit to the director of Architectural Studies upon completion of their internship, in order for their work experience to count for university credit.
Below is a list of firms and organizations where students have completed internships since 2015:
