Career Switch: From Civil Engineering to Architecture

Hello everyone,

I graduated with a degree in Civil Engineering in 2024. It’s been about 7 months since I finished college, and I’ve already changed jobs three times because I didn’t enjoy the kind of work I was doing.

Recently, I started using SketchUp and AutoCAD in my free time to design simple houses, and I’ve really come to enjoy it. It gives me peace of mind and makes me feel more connected to design. That’s why I now want to build a career in architecture.

I’m thinking of this path:
Language school – Senmon Gakkou (specialized school for architecture) – Working in architecture in Japan.

Is this pathway fine or blatantly stupid? Could you please educate me

Also, I did think about joining a Japanese university, but it seems too difficult to enter.
