What areas of math are required to become an architecture?

  • Answer:

    Trig is the highest level of mathematics that architecture students typically take. The University that I am attending does not require statics. I am a Civil Engineering Major. Keep in mind that if you want to design very large buildings and bridges that you will work very closely with civil, architectural, and structural engineers because although I am assuming you have a very gifted mind you will not have the knowledge to ensure that the design you create is structurally sound. Think about what exactly it is you want to do. There are architectural engineering programs that require mathematics all the way up to differential equations. With this sorta degree you will learn basic architecture and the engineering related problem solving tools needed to ensure that the structure being designed is safe. Personally, I feel it is best to choose one path or the other but there are people that do both and do quite well. There are also people that learn both and end up only doing one.

Geometry, and enough calculus to understand 'static's.
