BEng (Hons) Architectural Engineering

Architectural Engineering is for students who wish to work at the intersection of architecture and structural engineering. Students develop a multidisciplinary skill set to design building structures and components of critical infrastructure. This includes learning about the technical, societal, historical, economic and environmental aspects needed to manage complex systems in the built environment. The Architectural Engineering degree is a multidisciplinary degree, encompassing civil engineering and architecture jointly delivered by the School of Engineering and the School of Architecture. Architectural engineers are responsible for the design of different systems within a building or an aspect of critical infrastructure with a particular focus on key areas. As a student, you will be provided with a multidisciplinary skill set to design building structures, bridges and critical infrastructure incorporating both the solid technical grounding that a typical civilstructural engineering degree provides; alongside a robust and wider appreciation of the architectural, societal, economic and environmental aspects associated to a particular design solution. This programme also has a year abroad option, an incredible opportunity to spend an academic year at one of our partner universities.
