Course summary
Why study this course
Architectural engineers plan, design, build and maintain the buildings that shape our day-to-day existence with a focus on structural engineering, architectural design and building services.
This accredited course provides the knowledge, skills and hands-on experience you need to become a work-ready architectural engineer. Through laboratory sessions, field trips, individual projects and design classes, you will embed the knowledge gained from your lectures and tutorials and develop your practical abilities in surveying and design.
You will choose from a range of authentic, real-world engineering problems and industry-focused scenarios, to work on both individually and with student engineers from other disciplines. Group work mirrors the relationships of an engineering team and will help you to build skills in teamwork, project management and communication. Our open access makerspace provides a place for you to design, create and collaborate.
Learning and assessment
Teaching is through lectures and tutorials, supplemented by practical laboratory and project-based work. There is a rich library of online learning material, tailored for each lesson in each module, including instructional/informational videos, study notes, guided exercise questions and some online quizzes.
All students must complete a 30-credit individual project in Year Three, for which they are allocated a supervisor from among the teaching staff.
There are opportunities for interactions with potential employers through careers fairs and guest lectures. Speakers from industry give regular lectures on their areas of expertise. These offer you the opportunity to hear experts speak on topics that are relevant to your degree and give you an insight into working in industry.
