Architecture

Architecture is the art and science of designing building structures, using such attributes as volume, lighting, and texture to create a working aesthetic. A professional architect is concerned with planning factors like urban design, landscaping, environmental psychology, and interior design. Architects are charged with the design of everything from residential homes and parks to sporting stadiums, hospitals, and concert halls. Often, architects are able to incorporate artistic elements in their structures, creating large-scale environmental works of art. Salaries vary from $30,000 to $80,000 depending on experience and education level. Most architects attain work via an Associates or Bachelors degree, eventually moving on to more advanced Masters and PhD programs.
