Architectural Technology
Roehampton Campus, United Kingdom
Overview
Explore our BSc Architectural Technology, where innovation meets design. Gain in-depth knowledge in building technology, sustainable architecture, and construction systems. Prepare for a dynamic career at the intersection of architecture and construction, shaping the future of sustainable building design.
Skills
Study a degree that combines creative and innovative design with construction and technology.
Architectural Technologists specialise in the technical aspects of building design and construction, working closely with architects to translate their concepts into detailed, workable plans. They develop technical drawings and specifications, ensure compliance with regulations and codes, and select appropriate materials and construction methods. They also address technical issues that arise during construction.
Through our collaboration with professional bodies, local industry, and government, you’ll study a degree that is industry relevant. You will graduate with the skills required by the sector and the ability to develop as it changes.
Learning
Teaching reflects the way Architectural Technologists work in the real world, so you graduate career ready.
- Learn alongside other sustainable engineering and technology students just like you will as a professional.
- Project-based learning will give you the practical experience of working as an Architectural Technologist.
- Formal and interactive lectures and workshops to ensure you graduate with the technical expertise you need.
Sustainability is central to Architectural Technology and will be embedded in everything you learn, with a particular emphasis on good health and well-being, clean water and sanitation, affordable and clean energy, and sustainable cities, and communities.
Assessment
You’ll be set authentic assessments, meaning that your projects, tasks and exercises will replicate the working world of Architectural Technology.
This could include:
- Technical reports
- Lab reports
- Essays and presentations
Between Years 2 and 3, you can also opt for a professional placement year, meaning you have the opportunity to apply for a placement and gain valuable real-world experience.
Careers
Internationally, nationally and regionally, there are a host of opportunities for you as a graduate.
There is a significant demand in many architecture practices to employ architectural technologists to lead on the technical, environmental and legislative elements of building design. Many Architectural Technologists also choose to set up their own practice.
You could also specialise in Computer Aided Design (CAD), building simulation, environmental and ecological consultancy services, Virtual and Augmented Reality, visualisation, digital scanning and digital fabrication, project and construction management, and Design & Build services.
