Bachelor of Engineering (Honours) - Architectural Environment Engineering (K24B) (Industrial Year)

Studying Architectural Environment Engineering gives student the skills and knowledge to directly reduce the carbon footprint of our built environment. They will have the expertise to shape the design of smart and sustainable buildings.

On this course they’ll also spend a year gaining industrial experience which will enhance their career prospects and build their professional skills.

Architectural Environment Engineers work with architects and other professionals to bring buildings to life. They'll learn about renewable energy generation, smart controls, thermal comfort (heating, cooling and ventilation), the acoustics of spaces and lighting design.

Buildings are the world’s greatest energy users and because of this, our course has a strong focus on sustainability. They’ll become an engineer that can make a difference.

They will have access to excellent facilities including dedicated design spaces, workshops and research labs equipped with the latest renewable energy technologies.

This degree has three taught years meaning that they will only need to complete an additional year of further study if they want to become a chartered engineer. For some students, especially international students, the preferred route is to do our BEng course and then stay on to complete an MSc degree.
