A background in <a class=\"rank-math-link\" href=\"https:\/\/www.thebalancecareers.com\/architect-skills-list-2063730\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">geometry<\/a>, math, physics, and more advanced math concepts helps fulfill this requirement.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<h4><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Computer_literacy\"><\/span><strong>Computer literacy<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h4>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>Today, computers are used to draft plans, as well as simulations, 3D renderings and much of the rest of the visual output in this field.
