<p>I'm a high school junior and am highly interested in both math AND art, so I figured that architecture would be a good blend of both skills. However, I was surprised to find that most schools don't require math in their architecture curriculum (and that I wouldn't even have to take math at all at most schools since I'll be completing both Calculus AB and BC!).</p>
<p>I was really hoping for something that involved more math, but I'm decidedly NOT interested in engineering (there's too much physics involved for me).</p>
<p>If any of you can suggest a school where math is on the list of required courses in the architecture curriculum or another degree completely that might fit me, I'd be happy to know! :)</p>
<p>There are two types of undergraduate architecture: The Bachelor of Architecture (typically 5 years) which allows you to practice architecture and the Bachelor of Arts or Science, majoring in architecture or architectural studies. With the BA/BS you would still need to get a Masters of Architecture to practice. </p>
<p>So if you’re not sure that you’re committed to architecture I wouldn’t go the B.Arch route as it doesn’t allow for too much deviation from the curriculum. Math, especially calculus, is related to architecture, but not really integral. </p>
<p>If you want to study math and art, then I’d suggest you go for a BA or BS. Depending on the college, you can double major or major/minor in any combination of math, art, architectural studies.</p>
<p>Math/Art double majors are fairly common at Williams and I suspect they are at other colleges that have strong departments in both.</p>
