Pre-Architecture Overview

Weber State’s architectural design program provides highly valued skills, knowledge and experience for leadership positions in the architectural design industry.

Pre-Architecture Highlights

The architectural design program offers classes where students will learn both theory and practice (software), allowing them to learn skills that are highly sought after in industry.

Weber State’s current and past architectural design students work in various positions relating to drafting and design.

Beyond the Classroom

As an architectural design major, you can put what you learn in class to use and boost your resume through a design charette.

Practical experience opportunities are often available through job and internship opportunities offered to architectural design students by local companies.

If you continue on to the bachelor’s degree, you’ll complete a project that covers the application of skills, knowledge, techniques and concepts of an actual architectural design project.

“The reason I chose the program was the convenience of classes for non-traditional students. Another huge perk was the job placement and connections of the students. I was able to get job placement within the industry within a couple months of starting the program.”
