Program Overview

Calling all creative problem solvers! As an Architectural Engineering student, you’ll learn how to forge impressive design, collaboration, and communication skills with strong analytical capabilities and technical applications needed for building design and operation. You’ll learn how to discuss the aesthetic design of building projects with architects while ensuring all systems are functional, secure, and safe: lighting, heat, plumbing, structural systems, ventilation, and more. Only a handful of schools across North America offer this in-demand engineering program that addresses the need for engineers skilled in the whole scope of a building's life cycle. You’ll explore the science of building design by combining the latest in engineering and architectural concepts. Learn how to assess, repair, and refurbish existing buildings to give them a smaller carbon footprint. There’s an emphasis on green building technology and sustainability for new builds too.
