Overview

During the Architectural Engineering program at University of Melbourne, you will be taught by a world-class group of experts drawn from the Melbourne School of Engineering and the Faculty of Architecture, Building and Planning.

Linkages between the study programs will be explored via a dedicated architectural engineering capstone/thesis subject. The final year is fully integrated, which means you bring together your skills and knowledge from both disciplines and use them to work on a practical project.

Knowledge of current practice contexts, including environmental, technological, regulatory and project-delivery systems
The technical and creative skills to design and produce outputs that demonstrate an appreciation of economic, environmental issues, social and cultural issues as well as building systems and materials
