Architectural technologists are practical problem solvers. They work with architects, engineers and builders to turn architectural vision into designs that are buildable, sustainable, economical and structurally sound. On our Architectural Technology degree you’ll learn to take architectural design projects from concept to completion and appreciate the impact of architectural technology on people’s lives, and our built and natural environment. You’ll develop your skills and gain extensive knowledge of design processes, construction methods, environments, materials and the latest technologies including Building Information Modelling (BIM). Fieldwork, site visits and working on live briefs in interdisciplinary teams provides further insight into professional practice. **TOP REASONS TO CHOOSE THIS COURSE** - Close links with industry, from our Industrial Advisory Board to guest lecturers, provides industry insight and networking opportunities. - Option of a paid placement year to gain valuable work experience and build your confidence. - Specialist facilities including hydraulics lab, modelling studio, dynamics lab, heavy structures lab, surveying equipment and professional software including BIM and CAD. - Staff are active researchers, bringing opportunities to get involved in research projects. - Accredited by CIOB, CIAT and CABE. - Shared first year with our building and construction courses covers key aspects of learning across the industry. - Tailor option modules to your interests as you progress through your course. - Flexibility to study full- or part-time.
