Energy consumption is measured in “Quads” (Quadrillion Btus)

One Quad = 40 large nuclear power plants

The world uses approximately 400 Quads of energy annually.

400 Quads = 16,000 large nuclear power plants

25%

The United States alone uses approximately 100 Quads of energy annually.

of the world’s total energy expenditure

comes from one country

The world uses approximately 400 Quads of energy annually.

Of that 100 quads, 48% is from buildings.

which means, in real time, its a 13.3 year path... which is longer than law or medicine

it takes an average of 7.6 years after graduation to become a licensed architect?

Students’ individual paths may vary. IDP and ARE fall under supervision of NCARB and are the sole responsibility of the student. University of Minnesota assumes no responsibility for administering or facilitating employment, IDP file, or ARE. Ideal path described here assumes IDP hours align with NCARB distribution requirements.

MS under development by University of Minnesota faculty. Target entering class Fall 2013.
