Abstract | This article discusses how career and technical education is helping students draw up plans for success in architectural technology. According to the College of DuPage (COD) in Glen Ellyn, Illinois, one of the two-year schools offering training in architectural technology, graduates have a number of opportunities available to them. They may work as drafters or plan reviewers with architectural, engineering, manufacturing or government agencies, or they may even decide to continue their education and become architects themselves. Computers play an important role in today's architectural profession, so at Ranken Technical College in St. Louis, Missouri, students in the architectural technology program complete the majority of their work for the course on computers. The school offers a bachelor's of science degree in architectural technology. At Ranken, the technical advisory board made up of industry representatives helps shape the curriculum. Another exciting opportunity for students in the architectural technology program at Ranken is the study-abroad program. In schools such as the College of DuPage and Ranken Technical College, career and technical education is helping students plan for their own success in architectural technology by providing them with a strong, solid educational foundation.
