BSc (Hons) Architectural Design Technology (Accredited by CIAT)

... United Kingdom
... University of East London

Course Overview

Architectural Design Technology is an interdisciplinary course that blends architecture with building engineering, building technology, and construction management. Our team of architects, architectural technologists, and engineers will equip you with all the skills and knowledge you need for a rewarding career in this growing field. You will benefit from the contribution of architects and professionals from world-renown

practices such as Foster and Partners, Zaha Hadid Architects, Make Architects, SOM, Rogers Stirk Harbour, ARUP, and Atkins.

The program can be studied either full-time (3 years or 4 years if you choose to do a placement year) or part-time mode (6 years). Apprenticeship routes were introduced in 16/17, in which employers within the construction sector approached the University to offer Construction Design Management as an apprenticeship route on a part-time basis.

The course has a strong grounding in design projects and is particularly recognizable by its 'hands-on' approach to architectural design. There is a strong focus on technical studies as well as computer software for Computer Aided Drawing (AutoCAD, Revit, BIM, Adobe Illustrator, Rhino), building design, and energy performance simulations (Integrated Environmental Solutions (IES), and Design Builder). We have world-class laboratories and workshops including digital and robotic manufacture (laser cutters, 3D printers, robotic arm).
