The AIA Dallas Education Outreach Committee invites all high school sophomores, juniors, and seniors to our annual Architecture + Design College Fair. The event will include practicing architects, interns, current students, professors from local universities, and representatives or alumni from universities offering a degree in architecture. Students, parents, teachers, and counselors will be able to ask questions, receive first-hand information on what it takes to become an architect and learn the specifics on how each university architectural program is uniquely different. Students will also gain knowledge on the path an architecture student takes upon graduating college, internship development requirements, the licensing process, the professional practice, and organizations that support it.
