Architectural Engineering Program aims at strengthening architects’ predisposition to apprehend other disciplines. By increasing the engineering capacity of the curriculum, the architectural engineer will moreover be responsible for the design of the building’s systems and will be responsible to insures that the building will function. This profession needs incorporating civil, structural systems, heating, cooling, acoustics, lightening, mechanical as well as electrical systems within the basic curriculum.  Architectural engineering may be thought of as a blend of civil, mechanical and electrical engineering disciplines, since its majors study the planning, design, construction, and operation of engineered systems for all different kinds of the built environment.

Students in this program begin their study in descriptive geometry, principles of design, mathematics and the physical sciences and then apply that knowledge through studio work in the engineering fundamentals areas of soil mechanics, strength of material and thermodynamics before undertaking the discipline specific study of building systems design. 

Graduates of the Architectural Engineering program may expect to find employment with governmental institutions that tend to design and implement, large architectural and consulting firms, or private industry. They still are capable to work as part of a design team and may specialize in the design and implementation of one type of building system. They can provide design services to a wide range of clients.
