Gwangju University Department of Architecture Graduates Achieve High Pass Rate in Architect Qualification Exam

[Asia Economy Honam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Lee Gwan-woo] Gwangju University is emerging as a cradle for nurturing architectural experts by producing a large number of successful candidates in the Architect Qualification Examination.

The Department of Architecture at Gwangju University announced on the 24th that 14 graduates from the department passed the 1st and 2nd Architect Qualification Examinations held last year, as recently announced by the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure and Transport.

The Architect Qualification Examination requires candidates to have at least four years of practical training at an architectural design office after graduating from university to be eligible to take the exam.

Additionally, candidates must pass all subjects (Site Planning, Architectural Design 1, Architectural Design 2) in the final examination.

Upon obtaining the national professional qualification as an architect, one can open an architectural office according to the 'Architect Act' and legally perform tasks such as building design and construction supervision.

Professor Shim Jae-chun, head of the Department of Architecture, said, “The Architect Qualification Examination can only be taken after extensive preparation following graduation. Because the students diligently applied the knowledge and practical skills learned at school and gained substantial experience in society, good results were achieved.”
