建筑执照综合路径:IPAL

劳伦斯科技大学建筑与设计学院于2016年被接受参加建筑许可综合路径(IPAL)计划. 这一举措为选定的学生提供了在获得学位的同时完成执照要求的机会. Organized by the National Council of Architectural Registration Boards (NCARB), 该倡议鼓励选定的认证项目将专业经验和考试纳入其课程. 作为IPAL的一部分接受的每个认证项目都适应IPAL的概念,以协调学院课程的具体内容. 欲了解更多有关NCARB和IPAL的信息,请访问 ncarb.org/IPAL 或与CoAD iPAL协调员联系 Eric Ward at eward@femdomcenter.com .

利记sbo IPAL计划大纲

利记sbo IPAL计划是围绕实习就业和注册考试与专业教育的持续整合而组织的. 向符合条件的本科生和研究生开放, 每种情况的形式都略有不同. 本科生, 从第三年课程结束后的夏天开始, and ongoing throughout completion of the 6+ year Master of Architecture program, 夏季的雇佣是全职的, and part-time during Fall and Spring semesters to allow sufficient time for coursework. 利记sbo CoAD课程的组织是为了在第三年课程之后有效地满足AXP经验要求, 随后的课程安排允许在第五年的春季开始参加ARE考试. For graduate students, who frequently arrive with some amount of AXP experience or ARE examinations already completed, the IPAL Program often integrates well with their specific situation, 包括在其他州工作的非本地学生(取决于每个州的个人许可程序要求).

对本科生和研究生都适用, 两个标准是IPAL项目接受和继续的主要标准:学生有责任首先主动确保在符合“经验设置a:建筑实践”资格的公司找到工作。. Subsequently, 学生有责任在毕业前不断进步,以满足他们的AXP和ARE要求.

“通过IPAL,我接触到了不同的公司, 我得到了一份实习工作,而实习后来变成了我的职业. 我也可以提前参加ARE考试, which will allow me to become one of the youngest licensed architects in the state."

利记sbo管理部门对IPAL计划的支持

"In many ways, our M.Arch curriculum perfectly supports the goals and intent of NCARB's Accelerated Path Program. 我们的课程非常注重实践, 与大学长期以来的校训保持一致, "Theory and Practice," which dates from 1932.

Many of our students already hold architectural employment while pursuing their professional degree, thus there is very little change required to fully meet the requirements of the NCARB's program. 建筑与设计学院开发了全国最著名的在线建筑硕士课程之一. 这将使我们的学生能够在世界上任何有互联网服务的地方参与我们的加速执照计划.

利记sbo prides itself on the delivery of innovative educational models. 这个项目不仅适合我们, 但它将使我们能够与NCARB合作,重新定义21世纪从建筑教育到建筑实践和许可的过渡 st Century."

AIAS Facebook page

AIAS uses the Facebook link to post when any workshop events such as portfolio workshops will occur. Because they are not planned too far ahead of time one would need to be on the lookout. 有时,工作室周围也会有传单. There is also a calendar hung on the first level of the architecture building, near the stairs adjacent to the old architecture building where AIAS events are posted.
