Architecture vs urban planning - Cyburbia Forums

hellyskiia1 · 2010-02-08, 08:45 PM

I'm applying for graduate programs in architecture and in urban planning, I just can't make up my mind which is the right one for me (urban design isn't a great match, as I have an unrelated bachelor's degree in public relations).

The path with the greatest amount of flexibility would work well for me. Does an architect have a greater chance of moving into urban planning than an urban planner switching to architecture... just incase my midlife crisis calls for a career change.

Thanks for any input!
