Building and Architectural Engineering Department

Introduction

Building and architectural engineers apply practical and theoretical knowledge to the engineering design of buildings. The goal is to design high-performance buildings that are sustainable, resilient, and economically viable, that ensure the safety, health, and comfort of occupants.

Uniting scientific principles from structural, mechanical, electrical, lighting, acoustical, and construction engineering, building and architectural engineers apply their expertise to conceptualize, design, construct, operate and maintain buildings.

Building and architectural engineers have a great impact on society. Because people spend 86% of their time in indoors, building and architectural engineers concentrate on indoor building environments that prioritize the human condition and well-being of society. They also promote sustainable practices by lowering the energy consumption of buildings. As a result, presently,there is a great demand for employment of building and architectural engineers both in private and public sector organizations.
