Architectural Engineering
The architectural engineering discipline is growing in scope and complexity as it strives to provide innovative and environmentally sound solutions for our needs in the built environment. The provision of building services in new and refurbished structures is expensive, both in terms of initial capital outlay and subsequent operation.
There is a short supply of architectural engineers who have a firm base in the engineering disciplines, as well as knowledge of the constraints imposed upon engineering design by the technological, financial and human aspects of building. Our programmes deal with classical services engineering issues by providing solid theoretical and practical foundations, thus enabling graduates to cope with whatever challenges in services design and implementation they may meet in the working environment.
