As the largest discipline in the construction industry, the employment direction and prospect of architecture has always attached great importance to its important position, and of course it has always been a major with a good employment situation in colleges and universities. In recent years, with the development of national economy, the prosperity of social market, the improvement of people's living standards and the improvement of people's requirements for living environment, architecture has always been a hot major. Among them, the needs of several branches of architecture, such as interior design, landscape design, urban planning and so on. , greatly increased, architecture students have been very popular.

There are four main directions for architectural graduates to find jobs: architectural design institutes, architectural design firms and other design units in the construction industry, mainly engaged in architectural design and related architectural research; Of course, some students (mostly master students and doctoral students) stay in colleges and universities to study and teach; It is also good for some students to get civil servants to engage in management planning in urban construction departments; A considerable number of them have entered the real estate industry and engaged in real estate development. [Source: 2 1 1 University Information Network] Architectural students can take the first-class and second-class registered architect examinations of the Ministry of Construction after graduation. If you pass the exam, you can go to the relevant departments for registration and obtain the professional qualification of registered architect. In this way, you can have the right to sign the corresponding level of architectural design books, which is equivalent to mastering the "life and death power" of architectural design.

However, many colleges and universities do not recruit a large number of students majoring in architecture, because architecture is a high-threshold discipline different from other majors. Students must have a good painting foundation and good thinking in images before entering the architecture major in colleges and universities. This high demand also limits the influx of a large number of students and the expansion and development of architecture. Therefore, the architecture major has been in the controlled operation of steady development, and the graduates of architecture major have been in a favorable environment with good employment situation.

Architecture should be regarded as an art discipline, because it involves the cultivation and edification of many aesthetics, and it can be called an architectural art. With the development of modern architecture, it has penetrated into many other disciplines. Sociology, environmental engineering, urban science, behavioral psychology, ergonomics and systems engineering have all influenced modern architecture, greatly expanding the research field and depth of architecture. If human beings want to survive, they can't live without food, clothing, housing and transportation, and they must build houses, and they can't live without architectural design, so architecture will not stop developing. Students majoring in architecture can also develop themselves into fine arts because of their good foundation in fine arts. Art is interlinked, therefore, the graduation prospects of architecture students are bright and the graduation fields are extensive. Becoming a student majoring in architecture is a very lucky and glorious thing in itself, because he or she has entered the palace of art.

Architecture majors focus on cultivating senior technical talents engaged in architectural planning and architectural design, requiring students not only to master considerable engineering knowledge, but also to have certain social science knowledge, plastic arts literacy and painting ability. To put it more vividly, architecture mainly designs the appearance of buildings. But this doesn't mean that students majoring in architecture don't need to take courses in architectural engineering technology. On the contrary, the related courses of architectural engineering technology are compulsory courses for architectural students. Because students majoring in architecture should have a certain breadth and depth of professional knowledge, the academic system of architecture major in most universities is five years.
