Mission
The primary goal of the Society of Business Management in Architecture (SBMA) is to
inform and educate architecture students about the large array of opportunities available to them
in the fields of construction management, development, entrepreneurial thought, firm
management, law, and real estate.
It will then be the goal of the organization to help develop students into future business
leaders.
SBMA accomplishes these goals through the continual provision of forums for
collaboration and various events.
Many students will be interfacing with the business world; therefore, it is key we have a
resource that can provide these necessary skills. One of our main focuses is on the intersection of
architecture and other disciplines. We hope to allow students the opportunity to learn more about
the financing and logistics behind architecture in the marketplace.
The Illinois School of Architecture is a great support base and resource for our members.
Through our guest lectures, we hope to connect current professionals and the future generation of
world designers.
The Society of Business Management in Architecture is at the forefront of a new form of
holistic thought in architectural practice, bridging expertise and business proficiency.
