While professional licensure and certifications are available in fields related to our degree programs, our programs do not directly result in licensure or certification. Licensure in fields related to architecture, interior design, or landscape architecture generally falls under the jurisdiction of external organizations such as national and state licensing boards. If you intend to pursue such credentialing, we strongly advise you to contact the applicable state authority to familiarize yourself with their specific requirements.
Our professional degree programs are accepted in all states that specify degree requirements. The most accurate licensing information may be found at the individual agency websites: architecture information at ncarb.org; interior design information at cidq.org; and landscape architecture information at clarb.org.
