This course combines subjects from all of the engineering disciplines associated with buildings and their infrastructure, as well as providing an understanding of architectural thinking and practice.Be part of the interface between structural and mechanical engineering, and architectural thinking and practice – ready to create the next generation of low environmental-impact buildings.There is an increasing demand for building systems engineers with multidisciplinary skills. Study at Sheffield and you'll become the kind of engineer who recognises social responsibility and holistic thinking. Someone ready to step into a career creating buildings which make minimal impact on our environment.After two years studying the principles of engineering, building infrastructure and architectural perspective, you'll spend a full semester of your third year on an integrated design project.You’ll unleash your creativity on a grand scale: devising plans for an entire urban regeneration project based on a real site in Sheffield. You'll investigate new methods and construction materials while focusing on passive design measures and low impact systems.Finally, in year four you’ll be exposed to advanced methods of analysis and simulation techniques for certain building services, particularly fluids, civil, structural and mechanical engineering.These will feed into your major investigative project, developing your ability to work independently and carry out research – graduating with all the skills you need to contribute to the continuous development and innovation within the low-impact built-environment of the future.Why study this course?
