Course Overview

This design-led course is grounded in the prestigious School of Architectural, Building, and Civil Engineering. The course develops your understanding of the principles of engineering, which you can then apply to architectural design projects.

Combining the creativity of architecture with the rigor of engineering, the Architectural Engineer plays a vital role in the production of a sustainable built environment. Architectural Engineers oversee the whole building process, from concept to construction. Architectural Engineers combine architecture, environmental design, and structural engineering to deliver iconic, resilient, and sustainable buildings.

You will study environmental, structural, and architectural design in an interactive format. The traditional studies of building materials, mechanics of structures, building physics, and ecological systems will be brought together with humanistic subjects through integrated design projects. These will be the common ground where the relevant disciplines come together to challenge and develop your skills as an Architectural Engineer.

To ensure that you gain an appropriate industrial perspective, our students usually have the opportunity to undertake site visits and field trips. Students on the MEng course typically can go on a study trip to a European city. Contribution from leading practitioners and guest speakers in architecture and engineering is also integral to the learning experience.
