EDUCATION
AIA Puerto Rico, A Chapter of the American Institute of Architects
Para poder tener una práctica independiente en arquitectura, necesitas obtener una LICENCIA DE ARQUITECTO. El camino hacia la licencia comienza con una educación en arquitectura de una universidad acreditada. El segundo paso es documentar tu experiencia como Interno (IDP). El tercer y último paso es demostrar tus conocimientos pasando los exámenes de reválida (ARE). Estos últimos dos pasos se pueden completar de forma concurrente o en cualquier orden. Desde que te gradúas en la universidad, el camino a tu licencia puede tomar un promedio de 2-3 años.
Click here to start with your NCARB process!
The road to becoming an architect is less complicated than you might think, and NCARB is here to help. We have the guidance and resources you’ll need to advance from student to practicing architect.
Before you can call yourself an architect, you have to earn a license by completing your state’s specific requirements. Each of the 54 U.S. licensing boards sets requirements for licensure in their jurisdiction, but they all include three core components: education, experience, and examination.
Ready to get started? Learn more about the basics of becoming an architect.
EDUCATION
The first step to following your dream is finding a school that will support your career goals. Most states require a degree from a program accredited by the National Architectural Accrediting Board (NAAB). Learn more about studying architecture.
EXPERIENCE
No matter where you intend to practice, you’ll have to earn and document a certain amount of professional experience to ensure you’re ready to be an architect. Our Architectural Experience Program™ (AXP™) provides a framework to guide you through developing and recording that experience. And the best part? You can start as soon as you graduate from high school. Explore the AXP.
EXAMINATION
Another key part of becoming an architect is completing the Architect Registration Examination® (ARE®). With exam divisions designed to reflect the current profession, the ARE ensures that you’re ready to practice architecture independently. Prepare for the ARE.
