BA/BS in Architectural Engineering

Engineering design and the technical management of building projects across the construction process are the concern of this major. It applies technologies for building frames and structural safety, methods of finishing buildings economically and operating them efficiently, and mechanical systems producing healthy interiors. Together these turn architectural drawings into real structures. The programme joins architectural theory to practical training and reflects the move toward informatisation and automation in construction. Students learn to design, build and maintain structures that satisfy safety and environmental requirements. Building services, energy performance and project management also feature, supporting efficient delivery of modern construction. Field experience reinforces this learning, and graduates can manage projects from design through completion and handover.
