Technical issues relating to materials, building codes, building'systems,as well as an introduction to sustainable architecture, are covered.\\r\n \\r\n Students should be aware that the minimum educational requirement to become a Registered Architect in the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania is a Bachelor of Architecture degree. Students wishing to pursue this licensure in the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania must continue their education, upon graduating from HACC's Architecture AAS program, and obtain a professional degree in Architecture from an accreditated program to meet Pennsylvania's requirement. Since the requirements of senior institutions vary widely, it is essential that students choose their intended transfer institution as soon as possible and carefully follow the program requirements outlined in that institution's catalog. In addition to the educational requirement to become a Registered Architect, there is also an experience or internship requirement, which occurs primarily in an architectural office. Many architecture schools are now integrating internships into their curricula.
