U shud know
-be ready to spend more time than others during the course of study, watu wanaenda kulala we ndo kwanza idea hujapata.
-u shud b good in analytical thinking (good mathematicians are, knowing the process).
-accept tht studying arch is living it, unaweza angalia mechi ya mpira/movie na huoni mechi bali majengo.
-u'll understand kipindi cha shule ugumu ni kuchora na ukimaliza shule ugumu ni kupata iyo miradi..
-hela ya kula na kuvaa na kuhonga izo hazina shida as soon as 2nd year kama mzuri, ila zile za magari, majumba, ma investments ni 15yrs plus tena ni kama uko serious.
-wa binafsi na wasiopenda kukosolewa hupata shida sana.. Its an interactive proffesion.
-Your design/product will take alot of beating, criticism and changes as a fine tuning. And wen its built and was a poor design, u live to see ur mistake. Unlike a dr mgonjwa anakufa
-the more practical experience the more u become gud, apa tunaongelea muda wakusema mm ni architect na ni mzuri.
-U success is a chain of success.. Ukiharib kitu/ kazi moja dnt expect watu wakupe tena miradi. Maana inapatikana through recomendation (at lower levels) na pia through good records ktk level ya makampuni
-inahitaji other skills kama entrepreunership kuweza kuona opportunities, marketing kuweza kufungua soko lako, accounting kuwez ku manage pesa za msimu etc etc. wako ma architect ambao haijawalipa na hawafurahii wali ishiaga kujua kuchora tu.
-uwe tayar kuanza from the bottom.. Mishahara ya architects firms mingi kwa graduate ni 500-1m, ukizid apo labda uwe una more years huku ukiona firm inaingiza millions..bila
Uvumilivu unakimbia mwezi tu.
-practicising legally ni baada ya kua registered ambayo huchua 2 years with a firm doing exams and reports, huu mchakato wengi huishia njiani.
U wont regret, its the best time nchi bado haijajengwa opportunities kibao, utapata uwanja mpana katika construction industry..
But again
-u wnt know without being in it, tafuta firm ya architect, kaa 2-3months volunteer ata u messenger na kusaidia secretary, upime upepo, its not a field for everyone. Pia nenda pale ardhi univ/ mbeya university of science and tech ama kama una nafasi zaid nenda university of nairob au jomo kenyata kenya. onana na principal/ head of dept na mwombe ushaur, kutana na wanafunz wawili watatu,, uku utapata info ila ki analogue utapata real experience.
