This major aims to:
-
Bring matriculated or equivalent students up to an academically qualified level for a professional architectural engineer;
-
Equip students with the knowledge of design, manufacturing, installation, commissioning and maintenance of mechanical and electrical services in buildings;
-
Produce generalists in architectural engineering who are able to deal with all aspects within the discipline such as electrical, mechanical or electronic engineering; and
-
Provide students with the concept of full integration between the various disciplines within architectural engineering and in particular, the importance of integration between architectural engineering with other trades within the building industry, i.e. architects, surveyors, builders, developers and property managers. |
Upon successful completion of this Major, students should be able to:
-
Apply fundamental knowledge of mathematics and applied science to formulate solutions on engineering problems;
-
Identify, formulate and solve architectural engineering problems;
-
Describe and practice as a professional engineer in compliance with managerial, social and ethical responsibility;
-
Design and conduct experiments or use modern computational tools, as well as to analyse and interpret data in engineering design for built environment;
-
Plan, organize, construct, controls monitor and deliver?architectural engineering projects to meet desired needs within realistic constraints in terms of economic, environmental, health and safety and sustainability;
-
Communicate effectively by means of drawings and oral and written presentations;
-
Recognize the need for, and to engage in life-long learning, and stay abreast of contemporary issues;
-
Function on multi-disciplinary teams;
-
Describe the impact of?architectural engineering solutions in a global and societal context, especially the importance of health, safety and environmental considerations to the general public;
-
Use the computer/IT tools relevant to the discipline along with an understanding of their processes and limitations;
-
Describe the legal framework and the relevant statutory requirements; and
-
Use the techniques, skills, and modern engineering tools necessary for architectural engineering practice. |
