Overview

This three-year Ontario College Advanced Diploma equips students with advanced skills in the design and construction of buildings, using computer-aided drafting to produce documents for residential, commercial, industrial, and institutional projects. Delivered in a hybrid format, the project-based curriculum highlights a different building type each semester and places particular emphasis on energy-efficient and sustainable design and construction strategies. Faculty include current industry practitioners, some holding advanced degrees and professional licenses in architecture, who bring direct industry practice into the classroom.

Graduates are prepared for architectural technologist roles in architecture, engineering, and construction firms, working on drafting, documentation, and project coordination across building types.
