Assessment-Architect

Hi, I'm new here, just want to ask any updates regarding working/migrating to Australia as an Architect? I submitted 2 days ago my papers to an Agent here to try my luck. I'm here in Kuwait almost 16years working. Bale i check pa daw nila yung job duties of my 3 companies, then after that prepare the checklist to submit to AACA.

Ngayon kulang nakita itong website/forum na ito, kaya lang base sa mga comments medyo wala ata nakaka pasa sa AACA? so is it ok na mag submit din ako in my own sa Vetassess?

According sa Point system of 60 so far:

Age - 15

Overseas employment - 15

Bachelor degree - 15

State - 5

IELTS - 10 (Later on 2nd stage)

please advise.

Hi, any update kung may successfully nakapagpa-assess ng architecture degree from Philippines sa AACA to be equivalent to Australian architecture degree?

@athelene wala pa po.

Halos lahat architectural draftsperson and building associate.

@malt I see. Thanks! >_< Umaasa pa naman ako na meron para may mapagtanungan kung pano gagawin yung AACA assessment hehe.

I've been thinking the past few days kung bakit kaya not equivalent yung PH degree sa AU degree. According to my research (so far), yung accredited Australian qualifications kasi nila is Master of Architecture lang, which requires a total 5 years of study (3 years Bachelor of Design in Architecture + 2 years Master of Architecture). Yung sa PH degree kasi natin 5 years total nga, pero may mga kasamang minor subjects like English, Theology, Rizal, General Psychology. Hindi sila kasama sa bilang ng credits yung mga minors, kaya kulang talaga yung credits in Architecture na pwede i-claim during AACA assessment. 🙁

@athelene I agree with you. I also did my own research and found out that mostly yung major architecture related subjects like AR Design 1-10 sa pinas, yung number of units compare sa australia based bs-arch course eh kalahati lang satin. Andyan pa yung mga non related minor subjects na hindi naman naging helpful sa entire course natin na napaisip tuloy ako na parang naging money making ng universities sa pinas ang pagkakaroon ng minor subjects para lang magkaroon ng work ang mga teachers who graduated with majors to teach the architecture student's minor subjects.

Check nyo yang link nasa taas. Makikita at macocompare nyo ang BS-Architecture curriculum nyo sa pinas against with the one in the university of adelaide. Sample lang po yan.

athelene

@Pinoy_Imphotep True. And thanks for that link. I think based kasi on the US educational system ang PH, wherein students both have minor and major subjects. Ang pinagkaiba lang eh most universities hindi nakakapili ng majors/minors kasi naka-block system or fixed na ang curriculum, while sa US pwedeng pumili ng general subjects yung students bago magdeclare ng majors, then yung kukunin nilang subjects are based on their major. But I'm not sure if this holds true specifically for US Architecture degrees.

Madugo pala ang tuiton ng bawat archi subject sa AU..kaya pala lahat ng gustong magkaroon ng bachelor degree lalo na sa archi at kapag independent student ay lubog sa educational loan at pagtatrabaho ng part time para lang makabayad.

@athelene Ngayon ko lang napagtanto na kung nakablock nga ang mga minor subjects sa pinas eh di talagang money making nga eto ng mga skwelahan. Sapilitan kumbaga..bastusan..kung gusto mong gumradweyt ienroll dapat ang minor subjects. Walang pinagkaiba to sa holdap with granted permission ng biktima sa holdaper.

athelene

@Pinoy_Imphotep Now that you mention it, oo nga. Kumikitang kabuhayan ang mga schools sa minor subjects na yan na mostly d naman useful. With regards to the credit points ng AU in comparison to PH, magkaiba kasi tlga yung weighting nila sa atin and icoconsider naman din daw yun ng AACA pagdating sa assessment.

Hi. I hope this thread is not dead since the last post was 2018 pa.

So, I have been reading this and it seems mahirap maka postive result sa AACA? tama ba?

Magmamatter ba kung saan univeristy graduate sa Pinas or talagang all disqualified? Gusto ko sanag marining kung merong nag try from UP? Thanks!
