Studied... Architecture
Becoming... Licensed Architect
I earned my master of architecture at CU Denver. Like me, you can meet your moment here.
As an aspiring architect, Jarrett H. knew that CU Denver’s urban campus provided the best opportunity for him to learn his profession while interning and gaining real-world experience—all while being influenced by the buildings, landscape, and neighborhoods around him. He’d commute to campus by train, ride a scooter to get from class to his job downtown, and take in views of the mountains and skyscrapers along the way. Now, he’s building spaces that are inspired by communities and nature with a global point of view.
Being close to the mountains and nature, being close to my family, and then being close to the city…CU Denver helped bring those aspects of my life together and that’s been the greatest benefit.
Jarrett knew he wanted to get his college degree, but he wanted to find a way to earn money, go to school, and build his career. “When I first met with my advisor here at CU Denver, he said ‘I absolutely understand and you can totally split your education up this way,’” Jarrett said. That meant that he could balance internships and classes to make sure that when he graduated, he wasn’t just ready for his next step, he was already in motion. “It was very clear to me that I could work, play, and do school at the same time, the way I wanted to.”
Getting a master’s degree was a professional and personal choice because it gave Jarrett options to advance his career and expand on the ideas he’d started to explore as an undergrad. “Doing a master of architecture, especially here in a city that I very much adore, I was able to make more deep connections. I was able to network more, make more friends,” Jarrett said. “These are relationships that will probably last a lifetime, right?”
