The Program
The Andover High School Architecture Program has a proven tradition of providing students with professional experience in Architecture and Professional Industry used Software - Revit. Many students have utilized their skills from the Andover High School Architecture Program with paid positions in Industry and their programs of study.
In level 1, students learn to use the software and its tools. They work through basic projects and finish with an independent floorplan and elevation design of their choice.
In the second level, students will choose a plan of their choice and will learn advanced program tools to provide a Professional Working set of plans/prints addressing both local and state building codes.
Articulated College Credit is Given with an 80%minimum in the class.
