Employment for architects is expected to grow by 5 percent, faster than the average for all careers, through 2032, according to the U.S. Department of Labor (DOL). Demographic trends will play a strong role in fueling employment growth for architects. Architects will be needed to plan and design homes, schools, and businesses. In addition, the large baby boomer population will create a demand for more retirement communities and health care facilities across the country as it reaches retirement age. The need to replace aging structures of all types will also mean good job prospects for architects in the coming years.
