basically the level depending on the system of LAM, as a Part 1 student, usually the level is for draughtperson(but mostly cert and diploma student), technical assistant, or assistant architect...to be a design architect u must complete Part 2...and after practicing for about 2 years or more u can opt to seat for Part 3 examination and this is where get ur license as Professional Architect...

if worried about wrong information, u can refer to the link given...as hosted by bro.aza...

For technical assistant, not so specific depend on the scale of the office staffs, usually for small or medium firms, u will be multi-tasking between cad 2D and 3D drawing until graphic presentation...

part 1 is more of architect or technical assistant. draftman is one notch lower than that. for a draftperson, u only need a certificate. usually in msia these certificates can be obtained from polytechnics, or even technical schools.

but there are two levels of draftperson. one is the normal draftperson, the other is licensed draftperson. draftperson have their own licensing clause under LAM, and licensed draftpersons have a slightly higher qualification than part 1 holders. they can endorse and submit a drawing of a building up to 4 storey high amongst other things.

samy vellu is not an architect (although some including himself claim to be so). he's a licensed draftperson.

u can check more info of being a draftperson here

haha i dint know tat...lolx..no wonder he work sux at work ~

Just started new semester with final year student status...have to finish thesis this coming 8 months...

Azarimy, do u have any link or references 'online' for thesis...maybe I and others can look at it as references

student of Interior Design... I think i can join in to this thread for some discussion right?

Yeah...welcome to the family...it's the same world actually, designer

i know a lot of postgraduate theses available online, but not undergrad unfortunately. a list of UTM's thesis titles are available in kalam's website, but it's just a list of topics/titles. not even abstracts attached to them. i'll try and check if there are any international undergrad theses available.

Cool thread. I remember my undergraduate thesis from eons ago, it was on 'Living Architecture', a look at how building systems are moving towards mimicking the biological. It was partly inspired by HR Giger's work (the dude who designed Aliens).

Moral of the story, you can also look outside of architecture to have some nifty ideas for your thesis.

IIUM is going to set another accredetation eveluation next March or APril...especially for LAM Part II...and my batch is the most priority for this coming accredetation...
