The NSPJ’s headquarters are located just outside the city limits, with easy access to vibrant Kansas City neighborhoods including Brookside, the Plaza and Westport. While you learn from some of the best architects in the business, you can enjoy all that Kansas City has to offer for entertainment, arts and culture, sports, shopping and more.
NSPJ Architects accepts interns throughout the school year and the summer. Apply online for our architecture internships to get the training you need to make your mark on the architecture industry.
