Master of Architectural Engineering

As a Master of Architectural Engineering student, you will gain an internationally-recognised qualification in the architectural, engineering and structural design of buildings. The degree is highly transferable across industries in different countries. 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 capstonethesis 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.
The Master of Architectural Engineering aims to provide:
Advanced knowledge of the principals of engineering underpinning the provision of infrastructure and of the principals of design based on architectural history, theory and contemporary practice
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
The ability to think strategically at different environmental and urban scales.
