Becoming an Architect
Architects design buildings. Architects do NOT design wars, or political campaigns or software. Architects make the world better.

Only those individuals licensed by the State of California may use the title "Architect". Therefore all "Architects" are licensed.

To become an Architect generally requires a professional degree in Architecture (5 year bachelor's degree or a 1, 2 or 3 year master's degree) --- or 8 years of post secondary education and/or work experience as evaluated by the California Architect's Board.

This includes at least one year of work experience under the direct supervision of an architect licensed in a U.S. jurisdiction

Completion of the Intern Development Program

Successful completion of the 7 division (formerly 9) Architect Registration Examination

Successful completion of the California Supplemental Examination

The Bartos Architecture Intern program is a beginning in a student's journey towards becoming an Architect.

The Truth

We DO NOT recommend Architecture as a profession that will promise an individual economic rewards commensurate with the time and cost of the education, experience and testing needed in order to be come an Architect. There are certainly many other career paths available that will take less commitment and will provide a greater economic return on your personal investment. Consider the Law for example. If one is interested in Architecture and decides to make a go of it - it should be because of an abiding desire to create Architecture for the pure joy of it. But if the goal is to "make money" --- pursue something else.
