Let me make this point clear

Let me clarify a couple of points (about America):

Becoming an architect is almost one of the most important tasks. After graduating, you have to pass 6 exams and work for about 3,600 hours in order to get this license.

One of the conditions for getting a license is that your degree is approved by NAAB
It means that you have obtained a degree from a place whose program is NAAB
(There are ways to do this if the program is not accredited and it costs $3000)

The accredited degree can be a master’s degree, a bachelor’s degree, or a doctorate

An architecture student who has just entered the market earns between 40-50 thousand dollars per year
And this salary increases with work experience and license
So the average salary of an architect is not 100 thousand! not at all!

Getting licensed has nothing to do with whether you want to work for yourself (which is not possible with a student visa in America) or for a company!
In any case, it is a step that helps progress

In general, the architecture job market in America is better than in Canada, which means that there are many jobs for architects and it is easy to make money.

Since architecture is a very experimental field and it depends a lot on your work experience, it is difficult for those who study for a doctorate to get a job.
Because companies are not willing to pay a higher salary for an inexperienced person

It is better to have a PhD in architecture to work in the industry (i.e. a company and not a university) if it has a non-design specialty, or if it is an interdisciplinary field.
In this case, he can work as a researcher in big companies, the number of companies that do research work is limited

The type of work and the architectural work market of Canada and America are very similar and very different from Iran.
This is a detailed discussion, but in general, everything that is not important in Iran is important here and vice versa!!

Almost 5% of American architecture is what we read and saw in Iran as “American architecture” in our lessons.
