The National Council of Architectural Registration Boards (NCARB) released the 2018 edition of NCARB by the Numbers at its annual business meeting in late June. Many in the architectural profession, and in the broader architecture, engineering, and construction (AEC) industry, consider NCARB by the Numbers the definitive annual statistical and demographic assessment of the profession. There is a lot to be learned in this report. Here are my top takeaways from the 2018 publication (which represents data collected in 2017). The architectural profession is growing, mostly. In 2017, the profession reached a record high: 113,554 licensed architects in the U.S., up 3 percent over 2016. The Institute also hit all-time highs in total membership (91,078) and licensed architect members (62,755, which represents 55 percent of all licensed architects).
