Architecture

Unemployment Rate: 12.8 Percent

Do you aspire to create landmark buildings or custom homes to spread joy among people? You can opt to be an architect. But think cautiously before you register for this degree.

As per Barash, one of the main problems associated with this degree is that it only teaches how to plan and design buildings. It doesn’t teach you how to build and in the current times there is demand for only people who can do both, i.e., design and build structures. And she added that, people should first train in the construction side and later gain the necessary designing skills, and not the reverse, which makes it much harder to master.
