Key Facts

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.

The MEng course will deepen and broaden your architectural competencies and environmental engineering skills through a major design project, as well as taught topics. You will gain an understanding of methods for automating construction manufacturing, as well as an in-depth understanding of the role of a building in its environment. The traditional studies of building materials, mechanics of structures, building physics and environmental systems will be brought together with humanistic subjects through a series of 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.

Students on the MEng course normally have the additional opportunity to go on a study trip to a European city. Contribution from leading practitioners and guest speakers in the fields of architecture and engineering is also an integral part of the learning experience.

 Your future career:

Career opportunities in multi-disciplinary engineering and architectural design practices are the primary career paths for students.

As a holistic designer, your competences will be very attractive to a multitude of design-led practices and consultants. Typically, you will work for large, internationally-known companies.
