Architecture...

<p>Hey I was wondering what kind of courses architecture majors take in college? Is it a lot of math? Also, how's the money for architects?</p>

<p><em>points you to Yale</em></p>

<p>-------> Yale, Stanford, UPenn, Notre Dame, others.</p>

<p>Princeton's not exactly a mecca for architecture programs.</p>

<p>As far as I knew, Princeton had one of the top programs in the country? This website seems to confirm that...</p>

<p>Regardless, does anyone know how math-heavy architecture is? Also, how's the money?</p>

<p>Thanks</p>

<p>i think you are looking for an undergrad program, and that ranking is based on research (which is probably more relevant to the graduate programs/funding etc.)
you can search the thread architecture in other college majors for some more info.</p>

<p>Not my field but from what I've heard from architect friends, they see the best graduates from Princeton and Yale. I haven't heard them comment on Columbia, though the ranking you have found shows them second only to Princeton. Princeton is certainly highly regarded but may lean more in the direction of a scholarly approach. I'll ask them about the math.</p>
