fundamentals of engineering drawing
architecture ... just the design aspect?

i'm really good with fundamental/technical drawing. My math and science is okay..
however, I would like to know more about majoring in architecture.
I want to get involved with the design aspect, not the engineering aspect.
What schools offer more focus on design?
whats the breakdown of jobs?
is stage/concerts considered architecture?


While architects often take classes in structural engineering, many (most!) are pretty horrible engineers. That's why people who are more qualified to work with structures become engineers and are employed by architects to make sure their buildings don't fall down. There are architecture schools with more of a focus on engineering than others, but many are more in to the design aspect (note: design doesn't mean aesthetics... design means designing a total piece of constructed space, from program and system considerations, to code compliance, to materials, environmental impact, and also aesthetics.)

Many design schools offer BAs in architecture. Parsons even in NYC offers a BFA in "architectural design." State schools also offer more design-oriented architecture programs. Just ask around to the schools you're interested in, and they should be able to tell you their focus.

Also, "yes and no" regarding stage/concert design. You could be an architects and focus your career towards that, but that's more in the job of production designers, lighting designers, etc.
