Italian term

prof. arch.

Italian to English Other Names (personal, company)
Buonasera,
sto traducendo un curriculum di un architetto che ha collaborato con un altro architetto ad un progetto. Il nome del secondo architetto è preceduto da "prof. arch." che ovviamente so cosa vuol dire, ma non so come renderlo in inglese.
Ringrazio anticipatamente per l'aiuto!

Grazie Aida
agree Russell Jones : (I am an architect myself) Architect (capital A) is never a title in English. The title Professor is also reserved for "titolari"; others are just lecturers with no title except Mr/Mrs/Miss (or Dr.)

prof. arch.

As titles this type of term has no real equivalent in English. It is standard practice not to tranlsate, but to put them in Italics. For example, I am J. Davis B.A. (hons) NSPCC in English. To tranlsate that into Dott. J. Davis a) is not done and b) would be cery misleading.
