Architectural Environment Engineering including an Industrial Year
Course Summary
Buildings are the world’s greatest energy users. We need architectural environment engineers to work at the forefront of creating a global low carbon future.
This course gives you the knowledge and skills to work alongside architects, influencing design of sustainable, smart buildings as well as structures like stadiums, water parks and indoor ski-slopes. You’ll learn all about renewable energy generation, smart controls, thermal comfort, acoustics and lighting design.
You’ll become an engineer that can make a difference – sharing your knowledge to improve global building performance and services.
Set within our mini-campus on University Park, you will have access to excellent facilities to support your studies and research. These include dedicated studio spaces, workshops and research labs equipped with the latest renewable energy technologies.
You will spend year three in industry. You can apply for placements available to students on your course or can agree your own placement with an appropriate company. During your industrial year, you remain fully registered with the University, with regular meetings with your tutor.
This degree has three taught years meaning that you will only need to complete an additional year of further study if you 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.
Course Details - Modules
In your first and second year you will learn transferable skills, engineering fundamentals and specialist topics such as engineering mathematics, thermofluids and acoustics and lighting. You will also undertake a number of design projects. Your final year comprises of a range of optional modules, project work and an individual dissertation. A strong emphasis is placed on computational fluid dynamics, energy and waste, and heat transfer and refrigeration. Your research project will enable you to consider in more detail the holistic design of a building, its internal environment and the systems necessary to achieve a sustainable building. You will also undertake a year in industry in year three to develop additional knowledge in aspects of management and commercial practice within industry.
