Since 1857 the American Institute of Architects
has represented the professional interests of
America's architects. As AIA members, more than
86,000 licensed architects, emerging
professionals, and allied partners in designing
express their commitment to excellence and
livability in our nation's buildings and
communities.
Membership in the AIA offers a vast pool of
resources to help you compete in today's market

issues that may challenge your success.
As a member of the AIA, you'll have access to
and can network with a growing pool of design
professionals at the national, state, and local
