practice edit jefferson memorial the formal education and practice of u s architecture started in the early 19th century when thomas jefferson and others realized a need for trained architects to fulfill an acute need for professionals to support an expanding nation it was then that architectural education became institutionalized within a formal setting prior to this the dominant model for training was apprenticeship to artisan at best a hit or miss proposition educationally 30 additionally most who called themselves architects during that general time period were male well off white and trained in the french ecole des beaux arts school of fine arts education philosophy according to georg hegel a fine art philosophy by definition that focused on aesthetics and intellectual purpose rather than any practical function 31 the baltimore basilica was designed by benjamin henry latrobe widely considered the first professional architect in the u s 32 33 this is the basis in which thomas jefferson and others formalized u s architectural pedagogy 150 years ago according to ernest boyer and lee mitgang a philosophy that advocated for leaving the practical nature of the profession to be learned outside of formal education architectural design to be conducted by a competitive method with judgements by jury the study of design be continuous through school and design problems should not be overly practical but rather should stimulate the imagination through the study of great masters and an architectural curriculum include as broad a cultural background as time permits 30
