Architectural Engineering

Accelerated Programs
The Accelerated Program of the College of Engineering provides opportunities for highly talented and motivated students to progress toward their educational goals essentially at their own pace. Primarily through advanced placement, credit by examination, flexibility of scheduling, and independent study, the program makes it possible to complete the undergraduate curriculum and initiate graduate study in less than the five years required by the standard curriculum.

Dual Degree Bachelor’s Programs
A student completing the Bachelor of Science degree program in architectural engineering may complete additional courses (specified by the department) to earn the Bachelor of Science degree in civil engineering. (The reverse is difficult because of prerequisites in the sequence of architectural studio design courses, which begins in the sophomore year.)

Architectural Engineering students can also complete a Bachelor of Science in Appropriate Technology, a select program to support work in international and disadvantaged communities. Another possible dual degree is a combination with a Bachelor of Science in Environmental Engineering.

Bachelor’s/Master’s Dual Degree Program
Exceptional students can also pursue a master of science degree in the same period as the bachelor of science. Many students deepen their knowledge with an Master's degree in Civil Engineering, while others have broadened their knowledge with a Master's degree in related areas such as Engineering Geology, Environmental Science, Engineering Management, and Information Technology.
