The transition to architecture from a different professional field in profession search
Main Article Content
Abstract
To determine the reasons for choosing architecture as a second profession, this study was initiated with students who already had another profession and continued their education in architecture or graduated from an architecture department. A survey study was conducted with these two groups of students to determine the factors that lead students to architecture as a second profession. This study presents the findings and evaluations on the reasons for choosing architecture as a second profession and whether the expectations are met. The study was designed as a two-stage study and conducted with 33 participants. The first stage investigated their reasons for choosing the first department from which they graduated and why this department did not meet their expectations. The second stage examined the participants’ reasons for choosing architecture. Their professions after graduation and their satisfaction with the profession of architecture were also examined.
