Architectural Engineering, MEng (Hons)

This design-led course, rooted in the School of Architectural, Building and Civil Engineering, builds a strong foundation in engineering principles applied to architectural design. It merges architectural creativity with engineering rigour to produce sustainable built environments, where professionals oversee projects from concept to construction. Students explore environmental, structural, and architectural design through interactive projects that integrate building materials, mechanics, physics, and humanistic elements, enhanced by site visits, field trips, and insights from industry experts.The MEng programme offers deeper architectural and environmental engineering skills via advanced projects and topics like automated construction, while the shorter BEng focuses on core engineering and design fundamentals, ideal for early career entry or further specialisation. Assessment includes coursework, design outputs, essays, presentations, and exams, developing skills from sketching to BIM and structural analysis.
