Bachelor of Science in Architectural Engineering

University of Texas - Arlington

The Bachelor of Science in architectural engineering program is designed to provide a strong foundation in science, mathematics, and engineering science technical competence in the structural engineering area of civil engineering and an understanding of the importance of ethics, safety, professionalism, and socioeconomic concerns in resolving technical problems through synthesis, planning, and design. Elements of design are introduced at the freshman level. This is followed by an analysis and design component in professional program courses, culminating in a comprehensive design experience.The four basic architectural engineering curriculum areas are building structures, building mechanics systems, building electrical systems, and construction/construction management. Graduates are expected to reach the synthesis (design) level in building structures, application level in construction/construction management, and comprehension level in building mechanical and electrical systems.Students will apply the knowledge and skills gained in the classroom in real-world settings through internships or co-ops and course projects, including the capstone project.
