I love to study architecture,but now I am been given building to study in one of the federal university.how lucrative is building compare to architecture with Nigeria current economic situation...need your candid advice.

That's a good one for you, trust me, tomorrow the architects will be dragging site with you. Go on and study that course with all passion and get the best of result. Then come to a town like lagos or Abuja and work.
Trust me within the shortest period of time you can set up your own buildimg company if you know what you are doing in the industry.

thanks for your advice.

Architecture is both the process and the product of planning, designing, and constructing buildings or any other structures

With Architecture, you can design buildings, cars, anything

thanks...I'm not asking for the definition of architecture.

Bros Nigeria is not by wetin you study again, but try come out with a good result, what business does Fashola that studied Law have with Electricity, abi you never see someone that studied Animal Husbandry working in a bank?

Use d money fr sch fees to start a lucrative bizness now. U can study whatever u like later even abroad when bizness blooms

Thank me later

I think building is more of Polytechnic course... B.Sc... You will still be a bricklayer
Summarily while architects sit to design plans under aircondition... bricklayers execute those plans under the sun

Lucrative indeed, young man, go to school and get educated..... What u make out for ur self is what you get this days, no one looks for lucrative discipline anymore....

The only thing lucrative is what u have in ur brain to offer

They are both lucrative. Just have the right connections and you’re good to go. But with the economic situation in Nigeria. Not everyone might have money to build house, so any little money you make just diversify

Lol
I refuse to be tempted to comment on this thread.

Bros, whatever keeps your lights on, fuel it.

Please carry on with building technology. There is no limit to what you can achieve. I studied the same course and am doing good as well. Just make sure you get a better grade from school and also attach it with professional courses like PMP HSE and maybe Facility management then you are good to go. Work for someone for just a while to gain first hand experience after which you can go ahead to setup your own. The architects will always need you to bring their dreams to reality.remember to always learn the practical aspects. Thanks

hmmm

Go back to the question please
@op building all the way

architecture is more of the designing stage of structures. building is like civil engineering cuz u are practically involved from the foundation to the roofing of the building. Mind u, its not only houses u will be involved in.
its more active and interesting to practice.
just study hard to get the best out of it and u won't regret.

Dragging site with a builder?
Lol. Only in Nigeria will an architect "drag site" with a builder.

What are they dragging?
Not even a civil engr drags site with an architect let alone a builder.

My money is on building.

Beginning of failure. Find out all the information you can get before you plunge your future into uncertainty. A degree is for life and an take you beyond the shores of Nigeria

What you studied doesn't matter. What matters is if you can prove yourself. Both of the courses can make you independent okay? I studied Civil Engineering and no architect draws for me. I do my drawings myself and get an architect to seal it. You will study part of architecture in building same way an architect will study part of building

Thats the best that could happen to any one. Building is very lucrative. Same thing happened to me few years back and today I'm loving every bit of Building profession.

I'm an Architect but its not about what course you study, its about you knowing 'your way' - and maximizing your education / knowledge.

The advantage Architecture has over building is my certificate allows me a direct admission to study any advance course in building while a builder cant study an advanced course in Architecture.

eg - If my first degree is in Building, I cant do a masters in Archi; but if I have a first degree in Archi, I can do a masters in Building..... (except the education system has changed and i'm not aware)

In summary: GO FOR BUILDING and be the best builder ever....

I'm saying this not because im architect..but
Architecture is better simply because an architect will design and build wahalalessly but builder can never design nevereless you have just be given one of the best course

There is no field in life that is lucrative, it's the passion you put into any field that makes it lucrative or not .. Forget Narcos Do you know there are a lot of drug dealers that still suck at drug dealing ? Go figure
