All it depends what you really want to do.......going for architecture need some amount of creativity that should be introspected by yourself only........whereas in IT you should have a good aptitude and a sense of fast learning........

If you are looking for job prospects there should be a lot out there other than becoming an architect. You can work for developers, contractors, local authorities, teach, software companies, contract perspectivist. Endless.\nIf you are asking about branch courses, I would say Interior design, building sciences, building construction, building facilities management, Urban design, Town planning (to a certain extent), Architectural History, IT Arch 3D sotwares etc.\n\nOther than that I am not quite sure what you mean by branches.

Depends on what you're interning for.  Right now it's summer there, so if you can handle the heat I would say Australia since the US really isn't that great.  It's not all it's cracked up to be.  Plus, you can go sightseeing more in Australia.  I think it's fairly easy to get a visa to AU.  A lot easier than the US.

This is a very competitive field. Also, it is subject to the ups and downs of the economy. Nobody builds in a recession. Plan on at least 4 1/2 years to get your bachelor degree. A masters in business or architecture would help you a lot but would be at least another two years. Before you start, call some architects or visit to find out the good points and bad points about this profession. It is worth a day or two of investigation before you commit yourself to such a serious endeavor.\nBest Wishes.

probably Sweden. I live in the UK and British attitudes to qualifications are not very respectful. Sweden has a higher standard of living but high tax too. In the UK it depends what town or city you work in. Any big city is dangerous. Learn Swedish though.

Which country and why not?

Probably the UK. I've heard of a few exchange programs - might work if you're still a student or can fit into a certain age range.\n\nSince the US doesn't have any working holiday visa program, it's sometimes hard for its citizen to go travel & work abroad on a visa, cause those things go both way. \n\nGood luck !

Yes - not a lot of jobs, and the competition for the existing ones is tough. On top of that pay is not always the best, and once you go through an arch program (5-6 years), then you are still not yet an "architect", you have to work several years toward your licensing - at the right type of job (keep in mind it is competitive to get them).\nOn the other hand, if architecture is your passion - I'm sure you will find a way to make it all work out despite these things...

There's no one answer to this question.  It depends on which skills you look at, what aspect of education you mean.  I believe Japan, India, and Canada are among the best.  A good benchmark would be to know which countries pay their teachers the best.

Any of the skyscrapers - Empire State Buildin, Sears Tower - would be fine, since they're also very blocky. For a greater challenge, you might even try the Pentagon, since it is a regular pentagon in structure.\n\nYou might start off with the Washington Monument, since it's nearly 1-dimensional (because it's so much taller than wide or deep).\n\nI'm American, of course, so I think mostly in those boundaries - I'm sure there are buildings in other countries that work, too.

Architecture (from Latin, architectura and ultimately from Greek, αρχιτεκτων, "a master builder", from αρχι- "chief, leader" and τεκτων, "builder, carpenter")[1] is the art and science of designing buildings and structures. A wider definition would include within its scope the design of the total built environment, from the macrolevel of town planning, urban design, and landscape architecture to the microlevel of creating furniture. Architectural design usually must address both feasibility and cost for the builder, and function and aesthetics for the user.
