About this course

Our BEng Architectural Engineering degree combines the creativity of architecture with the rigour of engineering. Interested? Explore what this course has to offer.

Blend engineering principles with creative architectural design on this triple-accredited course. This is a design-led course grounded in the prestigious School of Architecture, 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 rigour of engineering, the Architectural Engineer plays a key 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.

To ensure that you gain an appropriate industrial perspective, our students normally have the opportunity to undertake site visits and study trips. Contribution from leading practitioners and guest speakers in the fields of architecture and engineering is also an integral part of the learning experience.
